A UPI QR code encodes a upi://pay link containing your UPI ID, payee name, and optionally an amount and note. When a customer scans it with any UPI app, the payment screen opens with your details pre-filled, and the money moves directly from their bank account to yours. It is the standard way to accept instant account-to-account payments in India.
Any UPI-enabled app can scan it, including Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, and BHIM. Because the generator produces a standard upi://pay link rather than an app-specific format, you only need one code for all payers. The customer simply opens whichever UPI app they already use and scans.
No, the amount field is optional. If you leave it empty, the payer enters whatever amount applies when they scan, which is ideal for shops with varying bills, tips, or donations. If you set a fixed amount in INR, it appears pre-filled in the payer's app, which reduces typing errors for set prices.
No. The code is static, meaning your UPI details are encoded directly into the pattern. It never expires, supports unlimited scans, and keeps working for as long as your UPI ID remains active. A printed code needs no internet connection on your side, so it works at a stall or counter indefinitely.
No. The generator runs entirely in your browser, so your UPI ID, payee name, amount, and note are never uploaded to a server or stored by the site. The code is built locally on your device, which is an important privacy safeguard when you are handling real payment details.
Yes. The generator works from anywhere because it simply encodes a standard upi://pay link in your browser. The payment itself is processed by the payer's UPI app and requires a UPI account, so this suits people abroad who manage an Indian business, collect payments into an Indian bank account, or serve customers in India.
Yes, it is completely free and unlimited, with no sign-up and no account. You can generate as many codes as you need and download them in PNG, JPG, SVG, or PDF format. The payment flow itself is direct account-to-account through UPI, and the generator adds no middleman to that process.
