How to Pay with QRIS: Practical, Fast, and a Standard Payment Method





Paying with QRIS is simple: just scan the QR code using a mobile banking app or e-wallet, then confirm the payment. This system has become a national payment standard regulated by Bank Indonesia.

In Indonesia, QRIS is increasingly popular because it enables cashless transactions and can be used across various merchants, from small businesses (UMKM) to large retail stores.

What Is QRIS?

QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) is a standardized QR code system for digital payments that works across multiple applications.

This means:

  • One QR code can accept multiple payment methods
  • It can be used across various apps (mobile banking & e-wallets)
  • No need to enter an account number

How Do You Pay Using QRIS?

QRIS payments are made by scanning a QR code using your smartphone.

Steps:

  1. Open your payment app (mobile banking or e-wallet)
  2. Select the QRIS / Scan QR menu
  3. Point your camera at the merchant’s QR code
  4. Enter the amount (for static QR)
  5. For dynamic QR, the amount appears automatically
  6. Confirm payment (PIN / biometric)
  7. Transaction completed

The process usually takes only a few seconds.

How to Scan a QR Code on Your Phone?

The process is similar across most apps:

  • Open the Scan / QRIS feature
  • Point your camera at the QR code
  • Wait for the system to read it
  • Proceed with payment

This feature is already available in most financial apps, so no additional app is needed.

Do You Need a Bank Account to Use QRIS?

Not always.

QRIS can be used by:

  • Mobile banking users (with a bank account)
  • E-wallet users (without a bank account, but with a registered account)

This makes QRIS supportive of financial inclusion, allowing more people to access digital payments.

Is There a Fee for Paying with QRIS?

For users (buyers), there is generally no additional fee. However, fees may depend on the policies of each provider or merchant.

QRIS fees are typically charged to merchants in the form of MDR (Merchant Discount Rate):

  • Around 0.3% for micro businesses (UMI)
  • Around 0.7% for regular businesses

These MDR rates may change according to Bank Indonesia policies.

Benefits of Paying with QRIS

QRIS offers several advantages:

  • No need to carry cash
  • Fast transactions (seconds)
