A new survey from Vistaprint recently highlighted just how much demand there was within the business community for being able to offer the convenience of touch-free QR code payments. Over half (52%) of the survey's respondents said they’d already added this feature during 2020 and as a direct response to the pandemic. Business owners also stated that they planned to keep the contactless payment option in place long term. 

The latest move appears to have struck a chord with many SMEs with 42%of small business owners polled believing that of all the pandemic pivots they have made, touch-free payment has been among the most important to their customers.

“Small businesses have been impacted in an unprecedented way during the Covid-19 pandemic and they have sought new, innovative and perhaps most importantly touch-free ways to keep their physical doors open,” said Nitin Prahbu, Vice President of Consumer In-Store at PayPal.“PayPal has always been a small business champion and with our PayPal QR Code technology, this is another way we are helping these businesses transact in a safer manner.”
