QR Code Scanner

Find out what a QR code contains before you scan it with your payment app.

How to scan a QR code from an image

  1. Choose a photo or screenshot that contains a QR code.
  2. The content appears instantly. Copy it or check it.
  3. For UPI codes, check the payee name and UPI ID shown here match who you intend to pay.

Stay safe with QR codes

  • You never need to scan a QR code or enter your UPI PIN to receive money.
  • Check links before opening: look for misspelled brand names and odd domains.
  • Stickers pasted over shop QR codes are a known fraud trick; confirm with the shop.
