Why a PayPal QR code

  • Opens payment with your account already selected.
  • Set an amount in advance, or let the payer enter it.
  • Accepts payment without card terminal hardware.
  • Buyers pay with a service they already trust.

Markets and stalls

A printed code takes card-free payments with no terminal to rent.

Invoices

A code on the invoice removes the step of typing account details.

Donations

Supporters give on the spot instead of promising to do it later.

Do I need a business account?

Personal accounts can receive payments, but a business account is better suited to regular sales.

Can I fix the amount?

Yes. Set it when creating the code, or leave it open for donations.

Who pays the fees?

PayPal fees apply as they normally do for your account type — the QR code does not change them.

PayPal QR Code Generator | Fast Payments via PayPal.Me

A PayPal QR code opens a payment transfer page through traditional fiat currency and banking infrastructure, rather than a cryptocurrency network — and unlike Stripe's business checkout, it works for both business and personal transfers.

What is this QR code?

A PayPal QR code encodes a PayPal.Me link or payment request that opens a page for transferring funds through PayPal to the specified account.

Best use cases

  • A freelancer's quick payment link for services without issuing a formal invoice.
  • A charity fundraiser with a fixed or open donation amount.
  • Splitting a cafe bill among friends via PayPal.Me.
  • Paying for a secondhand item on a marketplace without card conversion fees.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the amount be fixed in advance?
