Every shop in India now needs a UPI QR code. But getting one through your bank can take days — paperwork, verification, waiting for the kit. With a free UPI QR generator, you can create one in seconds and start accepting payments today.
How UPI QR Codes Work
A UPI QR code encodes your VPA (Virtual Payment Address, like shopname@okhdfcbank) into a scannable image. When a customer scans it with GPay, PhonePe, or PayTM, the app pre-fills your VPA (and optionally the amount), so they just enter their PIN to pay.
Step-by-Step
- Open the UPI QR Generator
- Enter your UPI ID/VPA
- Optionally add a preset amount and your business name
- Click "Generate UPI QR" — download as print-ready PNG
Pro tip: Print the QR on a sticker and place it visibly at your counter. For preset-amount QRs (like ₹50 for chai), include the amount in text next to the QR so customers know what they're paying.

Which UPI apps does this work with?
