How to Create a UPI Payment QR Code

  1. Choose "UPI Payment" type — Open QRMax and select UPI.
  2. Enter your UPI details — Add your UPI ID (e.g., name@upi), payee name, and optional amount.
  3. Customize & download — Brand with your store logo, then print and display.

Practical Tips

  • Set a fixed amount for invoices — Pre-filling the amount prevents underpayment and speeds checkout.
  • Leave amount blank for variable payments — Let customers enter the amount for general-purpose payment QRs.
  • Display prominently at checkout — Print at least 3x3 inches and place at eye level near the register.

Which UPI apps can scan this?

All NPCI-certified UPI apps including Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM, Amazon Pay, and bank apps like SBI Pay, iMobile, etc.

Is there a transaction limit?

UPI transaction limits are set by the bank and app, typically Rs. 1,00,000 per transaction for most banks. The QR code itself has no limit.

Can I accept payments from outside India?

UPI is currently limited to Indian bank accounts. For international payments, consider PayPal or cryptocurrency QR codes.
