POS
Instant Pay
This is primarily for small merchants or person to person payments. A merchant who uses the SendSpend App to request a payment from the customer will ask the customer for their phone number and enter it into the app. The customer will receive a request for the payment which will also display the name and a photo of the person requesting the payment. The customer will authorise the payment by entering their PIN.
QR Code
SendSpend Business customer functionality allows merchants using Instant Pay or Point of Sale to create a QR Code for the payment amount. The SendSpend customer will then scan the QR Code and be presented with a request to confirm the payment along with a photo of the merchant. The customer will then authorise the payment by entering their PIN.
