Which apps can pay this QR code?

Any UPI app — Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM, and every bank's own app. The code follows the NPCI UPI Linking specification, the same upi://pay format printed on shop counters across India.

Should I set an amount or leave it open?

Leave it empty for a shop counter — the customer types the amount, and one printed code covers every sale. Set a fixed amount for a specific product, a fee, or a donation tier so there is nothing to mistype.

Is this safe? Does my money go through FreeQR?

No money ever touches FreeQR. The code contains only your UPI ID and name; payments move directly between the customer's app and your bank via UPI. The code is also generated entirely in your browser.

How big should I print it for a shop counter?

At least 4 × 4 cm for phones held close, and 10 × 10 cm or more for a stand read from across the counter. Print with dark squares on a light background and leave a white margin around the code.

Does the code expire? What does it cost?

It never expires — a static UPI code works as long as your UPI ID is active. FreeQR is free forever, with no signup and no watermark, so reprints cost you only paper.
