Why do Czech customers like QR code payments?

QR code payments have become an integral part of the Czech payment ecosystem. Their popularity is constantly growing due to the speed, simplicity, and security they offer for online transactions. Czech consumers value modern and efficient solutions, and QR code payments are exactly that.

 

How does a QR code payment work with the PayU payment gateway?

The QR code payment process is very intuitive for your customers:

 

1. QR code payment selection

When finalizing an order in your e-shop, the customer chooses the option to pay via QR code.

 

2. Unique code display

A specific QR code containing all the necessary payment details will be displayed on the screen: the amount, your e-shop’s identification as the recipient, the bank account number, and optionally a variable symbol.

 

3. Scanning or automatic redirection

  • On a computer: The customer scans the QR code using their bank’s mobile application.
  • On a mobile device: The process is even simpler. The customer can be automatically redirected to the banking application directly from the payment page. The transfer data will be automatically filled in without the need for scanning.

 

4. Payment confirmation

After scanning the code, the payment details will automatically be filled in the banking application, and the customer only needs to confirm the transaction using their PIN code, biometric data, or another authorization method.

 

5. Instant execution

Thanks to the widespread support for instant payments between Czech banks, QR code payment is executed practically instantly, meaning faster payment confirmation for both you and the customer.

 

 

QR code payment – flexible options for your customers

Offering QR code payments can take various forms in your e-shop:

  • As a separate and prominent payment method on the payment options page.
  • As a convenient alternative within standard online bank transfers, making it easier for customers to fill in the details quickly and accurately.
  • Even for traditional bank transfers, where the generated QR code will make it easier for customers to make the payment without having to manually enter all the details.
