First-of-its-kind development allows customers to adjust payment amounts with contactless QR code payments, adding new use cases and convenience
Payment service provider Clik2pay unveiled their latest product capability at the Telecommunications Risk Management Association of Canada (TRMA Canada) Conference in Toronto. Building on the already successful Clik2pay service, which allows consumers to securely pay directly from their bank accounts, this new capability gives consumers the option to customize their payment amount, and for merchants to capture additional information, such as name or email address.
“Paying directly from a bank account has been inconvenient and as a result, many Canadians have turned to credit cards to pay their bills”
This new feature enables new uses of the Clik2pay QR Code, such as variable charitable donation amounts or partial payments towards an amount due. The QR code link to initiate payments allows for completely contactless payments in face-to-face settings or from a kiosk screen or display. And adding customized information such as names or email addresses helps merchants solve the problem of incomplete customer data.

Our passion is improving how people pay, and this new functionality enhances Clik2pay’s position as the only fast, flexible and secure solution for seamless payments directly from a bank account.”
