External Services
This plugin relies on a third-party external service to generate QR codes for UPI payments.
Service Used: QR Server API (api.qrserver.com) provided by goqr.me
What it’s used for:
This service generates QR code images that customers scan to complete UPI payments. The plugin sends a UPI payment string to this service, which returns a QR code image.
What data is sent:
– Merchant UPI ID (configured by store owner)
– Payment amount for the order
– Merchant/payee name
– Transaction reference note (order ID)
No customer personal information (name, email, address, etc.) is sent to this service. Only payment-related data needed to generate the UPI payment QR code is transmitted.
When data is sent:
Data is sent when a customer views the payment page after placing an order and choosing « Frinext Scan & Pay » as the payment method. The QR code is generated on-demand each time the payment page loads.
