Frequenty Asked Questions

What is a QR Code?

A QR code (short for “Quick Response code”) is a 2-dimensional image-based bar code capable of holding large amounts of data. QR codes store data using patterns of black dots and white spaces, arranged in a square grid. It can be read by a smartphone QR scanner or mobile device that is equipped with a bar-code reader.  

When personal and financial data are stored in it, a QR code can be used to send and receive money such as payment transactions. A recipient of the funds shows his /her QR code to the payer or sender who will scan the code to initiate the transaction. 

What is QR Ph?

QR Ph is the Philippines’ QR code standard based on the Europay-Mastercard-VISA (EMV) standard, a global standard for secure payments. It gives customers of participating banks and non-bank electronic money issuers (EMI) a quick and safe method to pay, transfer to and receive funds from other bank and e-money accounts in the Philippines. QR Ph is approved by the Philippine Payments Management, Inc. and the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.

Why do we need QR Ph?

QR Ph was developed to standardize the use of QR codes in the Philippines. It allows a common QR code to be scanned and interpreted by any participating bank or e-wallet mobile app and used for fund transfers and payments. QR Ph interconnects the QR codes of participating banks and non-bank e-money issuers much like how the ATMs of different banks are interconnected. Through QR Ph, a depositor of Bank A can use his bank’s mobile app to scan the QR Ph code of a person or merchant whose account is with Bank B or e-wallet Z to transfer money and vice versa.
