    Details on request

A code in front of a card

The code identifies the merchant; the payment runs on the shopper’s card or account inside the app. The merchant does not need a card terminal.

What paying a code involves

As in other QR markets, the code carries the recipient and the request carries the code as read. The status and details of the South African corridor are shown above and follow our data.
