QR Code Payments for Your Business: A Faster Way to Get Paid

As a business owner, ensuring timely and accurate payments is crucial for your success and sustainability as you grow and scale your business. Getting paid quickly keeps your cash flow healthy — and a QR code makes it simpler. Instead of creating a fresh link every time, you can share one reusable QR code and get paid different amounts, in person or online, again and again. If you searched for QR codes quick pay, this is what that now looks like with Wise Business.

At Wise, we're committed to help businesses get paid faster and that's why we offer local account details (only with Wise Business Advanced) in multiple currencies including GBP and EUR, global account details (only with Wise Business Advanced) in 9+ currencies and payment links, so you can get paid by customers around the world with no hidden fees.

The Quick Pay name has gone. Its QR code part now sits under QR codes, while reusable links now sit under Payment links — both with transparent fees.

What are QR code payments?

A QR code is a square barcode that a phone camera can scan. It stores payment information in a form your customer's device can read in seconds.

A QR code payment is simple: someone scans the code, a payment page opens, they choose how to pay, and the payment goes through. No card machine, no retyping details.

With Wise Business, the QR code feature gives you a reusable way to get paid.

How QR code payments work with Wise Business

Wise Business can generate a reusable QR code — a handy business account feature — that customers can use more than once. You can set a fixed amount, or leave it open so the customer chooses. That flexibility makes it useful for anything from fixed invoices to tips and donations.

Customers don't need a Wise account to pay through the page. And if they do have one, they can pay you directly from their own balance. Because the code stays the same, there's less admin at your end.

You can currently get paid in over 40 currencies through QR code payments, including GBP, USD and EUR. One thing worth knowing: receiving features, including QR codes and account details, require the Wise Business Advanced Plan in the UK (£50 one time fee).

• In person: Display the QR code in your shop or at your stall. Customers scan and pay on the spot — simple and quick.
• Online: Add the code as a link or button on your website, ideal for tips, donations or ad hoc payments.

How to set up QR code payments

You can set up QR codes on desktop and in the Wise app.

How do clients or customers pay me?

**Your customers can pay a QR code using debit card, credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. And if a customer has their own Wise account, the QR code gives them the option to pay you directly from their balance in over 40 currencies — whether or not they usually use Wise.
