Create a payment link via QR code

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the Request to Pay via QR Code API to create a Payment Link. By the end of this tutorial, you will know how to:

  • Create a pre-printed or offline QR code for point-of-sale and bill payment
  • Interpret the API response

Before you begin

To use the Request to Pay API, you will need:

  • A registered and fully onboarded Developer Account on the J.P. Morgan Payments Developer Portal.
  • An active project that provides you with the credentials used to make a request. 
  • Familiarize yourself with QR codes concepts.

If you need a pre-printed or offline QR Code to support request to pay, use the Payment Link endpoint. This endpoint will allow you to: 

  • Link and Unlink payment request to Physical Stores or due dated utility bills collections.
  • Retrieve all Payments links register with J.P. Morgan. 

Create a request

Create a POST request to the /payment-links endpoint and specify the expiration. Here's an example:

Example of issuing a static QR code 
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api-mock.payments.jpmorgan.com/receivables/request-to-pay/v1/payment-links \
  --header 'Accept: application/json' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "expirationType": "IMMEDIATE",
  "country": "BR"
}'

Confirm the response

A successful response will return a payload with the payment link and QR code details. Here's an example:
