PALO ALTO, Calif.—PayPal is offering consumers the ability to pay with in-app QR codes across 28 different international markets.
The move provides a safer way to make payments through the company's mobile wallet, Mobile Payments Today stated.
PayPal is temporarily waiving its standard seller transaction fees on QR code transactions.
"We know that in the current environment, buying and selling goods in a health-conscious, safe and secure way is front of mind for many people around the world," said John Kunze, senior vice president of branded experiences at PayPal. "As the coronavirus pandemic has evolved, we have seen a surge in demand for digital payments to transition to include new and safe solutions for in-person environments and situations."
