Payment of an invoice through a QR code (PAY BY SQUARE)
The QR code on electronic and paper invoices is a practical tool for quick payment. It contains all necessary information to make the payment, such as IBAN, variable symbol, amount and recipient name. This code allows easy and accurate payment without the need to rewrite data manually. You can use the QR code when paying via a mobile banking application or at the post office.
KJG a.s. uses QR codes based on the „PAY by square“ platform from the Slovak Banking Association, which is compatible with the SEPA standard.
Before paying with a QR code check your account status.
Before making a payment with a QR code, we recommend verifying whether the amount on the invoice corresponds to the amount to be paid specified in the Account Status Information. The QR code shows the amount from the invoice. If you have a different amount in the Account Status Information (for example, due to overpayment or underpayment), after loading the QR code in the mobile application, adjust the amount to the correct value before completing the payment. This will ensure that your account is settled with a zero balance.

How to load a QR code without using a computer

- Ask someone to take a picture of the QR code on your smartphone and then scan it from their device. The QR code does not contain any personal data, so the risk of misuse is minimal. After the transaction is complete, your friend can delete the photo.
