epay announced the integration of the PayPal QR Code in their point-of-sale solution. The solution is already live in Germany and will be available in other markets in the future. Retailers who have implemented epay’s checkout integration software can easily add PayPal’s QR Code at the point-of-sale along with other current and future payment methods from a single source. The epay solution significantly reduces the complexity retailers face when offering different payment methods at the point-of-sale. Retailers also can respond flexibly to evolving customer demands in payment methods as they emerge and tap into new customer groups. If customers would like to pay with PayPal, they open the QR code in the PayPal app on their smartphone and present it for scanning. The cashier scans the code and the amount to be paid is shown directly in the app. Next, customers select their preferred payment method stored in their PayPal account - for example bank account or credit card and confirm the payment on their smartphone. Customer and cashier then immediately receive a confirmation of the transaction.
