According to research by PYMNTS , contactless payments have increased by 150% over the past two years, leading to an 11% increase in QR code payment adoption since the start of the pandemic.
In Spain we have seen initiatives based on this type of payment in the last year: as happened with PAYCOMET, which a few months ago integrated new tools for online sales such as QR payments and payments by links, which allow remote payments without the need for payment platforms, a more flexible and easy-to-implement way for many businesses that do not have an eCommerce or that want to complement their omnichannel sales strategy.
In addition, QR codes have also been gaining ground in other finland business email database services beyond payments : NACEX , the express courier company for parcels and documentation from the Logista Group, activated zero-contact deliveries. Thus, users receive a QR code that they must show to the courier for them to deliver their shipment, reducing contact between the courier and the customer while increasing security during the process.
Now we will just have to wait to see how widely accepted QR payments will be through Facebook Pay, and whether the system will become a mainstream payment method.
