QR code Generation

  1. QR code can be generated in following two ways:

    1. Through Swish API : Merchant is given with base 64 encoded string that can be decoded at merchant's side

    2. Locally using Swish guidelines : Merchant is given with QR

      Both are depicted below for reference:

      PPRO gives flexibility to choose one of the ways.
