How to create a PayNow QR code

QRdx builds the code in the SGQR format that Singapore banking apps scan. Leave the amount empty for a code anyone can pay any amount, or set one and choose whether the payer may change it. A reference shows up with the payment, and an expiry date makes the code stop working after a given day.

  1. 1Choose whether the payment goes to a mobile number or a UEN, and enter it.
  2. 2Optionally add the name payers should see, an amount and a reference such as an invoice number.
  3. 3Set an expiry date if the code should only work for a while, for an invoice say.
  4. 4Scan the preview with your banking app to check the details, then download the code.
