id · string

The unique identifier of the QR Code. For example, qr_HMsVL8HOpbMcjU.

entity · string

Indicates the type of entity. Here, it is qr_code.

created_at · integer

Unix timestamp at which the QR Code is created.

name · string

Label entered to identify the QR Code. For example, Store Front Display.

usage · string

Indicates if the QR Code should be allowed to accept single payment or multiple payments. Possible values:

• single_use: QR Code will accept only one payment and then close automatically.
• multiple_use (default): QR Code will accept multiple payments.

type · string

The type of the QR Code. Possible value is upi_qr, which creates a QR Code that accepts only UPI payments.

Feature Request

This is an on-demand feature. Please raise a request with our Support team to get this feature activated on your account.

image_url · string

The URL of the QR Code. For example, http://rzp.io/l6MS. Click the link to download the code.

payment_amount · integer

The amount allowed for a transaction. If this is specified, then any transaction of an amount less than or more than this value is not allowed. For example, if this amount is set as 500000, the customer cannot pay an amount less than or more than ₹5000.

status · string

Indicates the status of the QR Code. Possible values:

• active: Indicates that the QR Code has been created and is ready to accept payments.
• closed: Indicates that the QR Code has been closed.

description · string

A brief description about the QR Code.

fixed_amount · boolean

Indicates if the QR Code should accept payments of specific amounts or any amount. Possible values:

• true: QR Code accepts only a specific amount.
• false (default): QR code accepts any amount.

Watch Out!

When setting the usage to single_use, ensure that fixed_amount is true to generate the QR Code successfully.

payments_amount_received · integer

The total amount received on the QR Code. Only captured payments are considered.

payments_count_received · integer

The total number of payments received on the QR Code. All captured payments are considered.

notes · object

Key-value pair that can be used to store additional information about the QR Code. Maximum 15 key-value pairs, 256 characters (maximum) each. For example, "note_key": "Beam me up Scotty”.

customer_id · string

The unique identifier of the customer the QR Code is linked with. Know more about the Customers API.

close_by · integer

Unix timestamp at which the QR Code is scheduled to be automatically closed. The time must be at least 15 minutes after the current time. The date range can be set to 2147483647 in Unix timestamp format (equivalent to Tuesday, January 19, 2038 8:44:07 AM GMT+05:30).

Handy Tips

Any request beyond 2147483647 Unix timestamp will fail.

Watch Out!

This parameter is available for single use QR codes only. You should ideally send a close_by value (expiry time less than or equal to 2 hours from QR generation).

• The QR code has a minimum expiration time of 2 minutes and a maximum of 2 hours.
• If close_by is NULL, the system sets a 2-hour expiry (returned in the response).
• If close_by is greater than 2 hours, the system overrides it to 2 hours (returned in the response).
• Use the returned close_by value for QR expiry. QR codes expire after the close_by time; you must regenerate them.
• This parameter is only available for QR codes with usage set as single_use. You will not be able to use this parameter for multiple_use QR codes as it will generate an error.

closed_at · integer

Unix timestamp at which the QR Code is automatically closed.

close_reason · string

The reason for the closure of the QR Code. Possible values:

• on_demand: When you close the QR Code using the APIs or the Dashboard.
• paid: If the QR Code is created with the usage=single_payment parameter, the QR Code closes automatically once the customer makes the payment, with the reason marked as paid.
• null: The QR Code has not been closed yet.
