Introduction

Introduction

Vipps MobilePay offers a convenient QR code payment feature that enables fast, contactless, and secure transactions in-store and online. This guide explains how to use the QR code payment function effectively to pay merchants or bills with ease using your smartphone.

Why use QR code payments with Vipps MobilePay?

Using the QR code payment feature enhances the payment experience by allowing you to make instant payments without manual entry of card or account details. It reduces the risk of input errors, supports contactless transactions for safety, and speeds up checkout whether you are paying at a store or settling bills online.

Materials needed

• A smartphone with the latest version of the Vipps MobilePay app installed.
• A stable internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data).
• The merchant’s or biller’s displayed QR code, ready for scanning.

Step 1: Open the Vipps MobilePay app

Ensure your app is updated to the latest version for the best performance and security. Launch the Vipps MobilePay app on your smartphone.

Step 2: Access the QR Code Scanner

Navigate to the payment or scanning section within the app. Tap on the QR code scanning option to activate your phone’s camera.

Step 3: Scan the QR Code

Point your smartphone camera steadily at the merchant’s or biller’s QR code. The app will automatically detect and read the payment details encoded in the QR code.

Step 4: Confirm Payment Details

Carefully review the payment amount, recipient, and any other details displayed. Confirm that all information is correct before proceeding.

Step 5: Authorize the Payment

Authenticate the transaction securely using biometric options like fingerprint or Face ID, or by entering your app passcode.

Step 6: Receive Confirmation

Once authorized, you will receive a confirmation notification that the payment was successfully processed. The transaction will also appear in your payment history within the app.

Additional Use: Paying Bills via QR Codes

Besides in-store payments, you can scan QR codes printed on bills and invoices using the same QR scanner. This allows you to quickly pay utilities, subscriptions, and other recurring charges directly through Vipps MobilePay.

Tips and Best Practices

• Always ensure your app is up to date to benefit from the latest security features.
• Verify the payment recipient and amount carefully before authorizing.
• Use biometric authentication to keep your payments secure and swift.
• If the QR code is damaged or unreadable, ask the merchant or biller for a new code or alternative payment method.
