Settings

  1. Purpose of the payment: This will be displayed as text in the payment confirmation and on the stickers and table displays.

  2. Amount type: An open amount is useful if you want to collect different amounts. A fixed amount or a minimum amount is practical if you want to accept payments for a specific product. You can create a different QR code for each product. This setting cannot be changed later.

  3. Currency: The currency for all QR code payments. This setting cannot be changed later.

  4. Supports TWINT scan: The QR code can also be scanned and paid using the TWINT app. This setting is enabled by default once your account has been reviewed. Only for 🇨🇭 Swiss merchants.

  5. Form fields: This information must be filled out by your customers.

  6. Notification when payment is received: Additional email addresses that will be notified upon a payment receipt for the selected QR code. You can configure notification settings for all payment receipts in your Payrexx account under Settings > Notifications.

  • 1 sticker sheet with 3 QR code stickers (6 x 10,5 cm) and 3 explanatory stickers

  • optional 2 foldable table displays (14,6 x 19 cm)

The first order is free (you will receive each subsequent order at cost price). Your order will be delivered by post within 3–9 working days.

Tips and tricks for stickers

  • Choose a highly visible position for the stickers.

  • The stickers are weatherproof, but exposure to rain and sun will cause them to age faster. Therefore, it's best to select a somewhat sheltered location to extend the lifespan of the stickers.

  • Clean the surface before applying the stickers.

  • Gently press the edges and corners to ensure the stickers stay in place later on.

  • Place the explanatory sticker right next to the QR code sticker. Especially new customers may not yet know how to scan the QR code.

Monitoring Payments

For each payment received, a payment confirmation email is sent. Recipients can be set under Settings > Notifications > Payment Confirmation. By default, both the paying customer and the account holder are notified. Additionally, you can add more email addresses per QR code in your QR code settings.

If you want to check on-site whether a customer has made a payment, you can ask the customer to show you the payment confirmation page on their mobile phone.

Payouts

You can adjust your payout settings in your account under Settings > Payout settings. Learn more.

Testing Your First Payment

You can test a payment in live mode with real money and refund the payment in your Payrexx account under Payments > Transactions. Alternatively, you can switch your payment provider to test mode. Afterward, you can make test payments without actual money flow for payment methods with the yellow "TEST" badge during the payment process.

The customer scans and pays directly with the TWINT app.

  1. Launch the TWINT app.

  2. Scan the QR code with the TWINT app.

  3. Enter a small amount (e.g., CHF 0,50) and complete the payment.

  4. Check your email account for a payment confirmation.

  5. Check your Payrexx account under "Payments" to verify that the payment was successful.
