A PayPal QR code opens paypal.me/yourname, your personal payment page. The payer chooses the amount (or you add it to the link), then pays with their PayPal balance or card. The money lands in your PayPal account.
Create your PayPal.Me link in the PayPal app under your profile, or at paypal.me. You can add an amount to the end of the link, such as paypal.me/yourname/25, to ask for a fixed price. PayPal’s usual fees for receiving payments apply; this code does not add any.
Where a PayPal QR code helps
Market stalls and fairs
Buyers without cash pay on the spot, and you see the payment on your phone.
Tips and donations
Street performers, guides and creators print the code on a sign or the tip jar.
Invoices
A code on a paper invoice opens the payment page with the amount ready.
