Hi, Do you have any solution for Paytm/Mobikwik QR code generation for Payment-Receive for Merchant ?
Actually, I am working on a POS system for Shop keepers and I am integrating Paytm/Mobikwik QR code to receive Payment. Any solutions you have let me know.

What are the risks involved? Can’t someone maliciously use a fake QR code and receive the payment, instead of the merchant? PayTM services as prepaid wallet, right? Users must link the app to a credit card or purchase value amount? Is this how Alipay operates in China?
From the passage provided, PayTM is a QR code reader and the merchant provides its fixed (static) QR Code. What are the potential risks embeded with this kind of transaction? Shouldn’t there be a pin number to authenticate each transaction?
Thanks!

Hi Subhajit,

It is possible that your phone camera is not good enough to detect each element of the QR Code. Paytm may have updated the app with the QR Code scanning feature but decent camera quality is required to decode a QR Code.

If you believe your phone has a good camera, it could be possible that your camera is damaged and is not able to focus. Try scanning any other QR Code with a generic QR Code scanning app: https://scanova.io/blog/qr-code-scanner-iphone-android/

Hope this helps.

Hi Shephali,

I have updated the article with this information. You can get the placard format in your Android Paytm app. See second-half of Section A of this article: A. Request Money (amount specified by sender)

Hope this helps.

In reply to KAMALESH KHANDELWAL.

Hi Kamalesh,

I believe you can only associate one number with a Paytm account. You will need to check with Paytm for this. Personally, here is what I recommend:

1. Get a new number/sim card
2. Register a new Paytm account in your name/company name with this new number
3. Buy a cheap phone and install this new sim
4. Give this phone to your store manager/Keep this phone in the store

You can have multiple Paytm accounts as long as you have a unique phone number for each account.

Hope this was helpful.
