Generate QR

This API can be used to generate QR code for any user against their mobile number. Also, This API can be used to fetch existing QR code created with us.

What is the QR transaction flow?

Eko’s QR Payment API provides an end-to-end solution from QR code generation to payment collection. The transaction flow is as follows:

  1. Activate your service for QR using Activate Service
  2. The user provides their mobile number that is the sender_id against which their QR code is generated.
    NOTE - For each sender_id, only one QR string can be generated.
  3. If any payment is made against the QR code, the amount is reflected in the partner's wallet.
  4. After the transaction, the callback request with the transaction details is sent to the partner. The transaction status of a particular transaction can be checked using the transaction enquiry API.

For setting up the callback/webhook, kindly share the URL with the Eko Code on [email protected]

Callback response:

{
    "tx_status": 0,
    "amount": 400.0,
    "tds": 0.0,
    "txstatus_desc": "Success",
    "customer_vpa": "abcde@okhdfcbank",
    "fee": 0.0,
    "gst": 0.0,
    "tid": 2886142533,
    "client_ref_id": "cust_MAQHG5z2g0k9FK",
    "old_tx_status": 2,
    "partners_commision": 0.0,

    "bank_ref_num": "313196224563",
    "timestamp": "2023-07-06 13:11:45"
}

📘

To cross-check the QR code that was used for a transaction, check if the client_ref_id in the callback matches the utility_acc_no in the generated QR. If they are the same, you've identified the QR code used for the transaction.
