Tips for a code that scans

  • You need a PayPal.Me link first. Create it in your PayPal account.
  • Scan the finished code and check the name and amount before you print it.
  • A fixed amount can still be changed by the payer.
  • Keep strong contrast between the dots and the background, and leave the empty border around the code.
  • Print it at least 2 cm (0.8 in) wide, and larger if people scan it from a distance.
