# Pay By QR (paybyqr.com.au) — QR Payments for Roadside & Farm Gate Stalls Last updated: 2026-05-16 ## Overview Pay By QR is a QR-code based payments platform that makes it easy for customers to pay by card at **unattended roadside and farm gate stalls** — without a traditional EFTPOS terminal. Instead of managing cash boxes, card readers or clunky apps, stallholders simply display a QR code. Customers scan it with their phone, enter the amount, and pay using their card or digital wallet. Funds are processed securely and paid out directly to the stallholder’s bank account on their chosen schedule. Pay By QR is **proudly Australian owned and operated**, and is *purpose-built* for honesty-style roadside and farm gate stalls; but also can help charities, community groups, buskers and volunteer-run clubs.
