Help Center Payment Links Taking Payment in Person

Taking Payment in Person

The situation

Someone is standing in front of you and wants to pay. It needs to be done in under a minute, and probably from your phone.

The quickest way

  1. Create a payment link on your phone with the amount.
  2. Show your screen to the customer.
  3. They scan the QR code with their wallet app and confirm.
  4. You watch it turn to Paid while they are still standing there.

No card reader, no terminal, no waiting on a bank.

For a price you charge all day

If you sell the same thing at the same price over and over, creating a link each time gets tedious.

Make a checkout button for that price, keep it on a simple page saved on your phone, and tap it for each customer. Every tap creates a fresh payment.

Before you rely on this at a market

  • Check your phone signal where you will actually be standing. All of this needs a connection.
  • Run one real payment to yourself first so you know the flow by heart.
  • Confirmation takes a few seconds. Do not hand anything over before you see Paid.

If they do not have a wallet app

They cannot pay this way, and there is no fallback inside Brykto. Worth knowing which wallets your regular customers use before you stop accepting anything else.
