QR Codes for Signups with Payment Collection via PayPal

At Qryptal, we believe QR Codes are all about enabling your customers to do things NOW with their mobile, when you have their attention - rather than later, which often ends up being never (out of sight, ends up being out of mind).

One great use case is driving signups for your event, service, facilites booking etc.

Our users have been using Qryptal Forms to get the registration information for quite sometime but many such signups needed the registrants to pay as well. We have recently done integration with PayPal to make this a seamless experience for our customers as well as the end-users signing up.

End-User experience:
Let's say you are organizing a race and have created posters to promote it:


Once the user has filled up all the information you need, they are sent to the PayPal website to pay for their registration (it is important to note that payment information is entered directly with PayPal and Qryptal does not see the credit card info or PayPal account details).


After the user completes the payment transaction successfully with PayPal, Qryptal can optionally send an email to the end-user:


You as an organizer will receive two notifications from Qryptal:

  • Registration Form Fill Notification: All the details, the user enters when she fills up the form to register (before being sent to PayPal to pay).
  • Payment Notification: When the user completes the transaction with PayPal, we would send you another email so that you can reconcile your records.

Apart from above, both the merchant and the buyer would receive the usual notifications directly from PayPal.

You can try by scanning the code below. It will cost you 1 cent (all of which will be kept by PayPal).


You should also read this blog post to understand how Qryptal Forms work so that you can get an idea of what all you can do with this:
Qryptal Forms.

We chose PayPal because:

  • Mobile Friendly: They have a great mobile checkout experience (you can try above).
  • Worldwide: We have users worldwide and needed a payment service available to merchants in nearly all parts of the world.
  • Secure: End users would be sending their payment information directly to PayPal. Not only do they support such flows but also have a great record on security.
If you would like to try Qryptal Forms with PayPal, send us an email with some details on what you would like to accomplish and our team would be happy to guide and set things up for you:

Inflight QR Code Campaign for Voter Registration

Media_httpasset3cbsis_ffwga

"Passengers can register to vote through the plane's in-flight entertainment system. You activate the in-flight Internet service on your smartphone, scan the provided QR code, and let it whisk you away to a voter registration page."

We have observed from past campaigns that more users scan QR Codes in spaces where they have greater 'down time'.

For example we have found that QR Codes at a restaurant table gets more scans - probably because customers have 'time' and often looking for things to do.

This story is similar. Virgin America has inflight internet- makes their plane seats a very fertile medium for great QR Code campaigns!

Similarly trains offer another attractive opportunity:

"At the centerpiece of the nationwide voter registration drive is Rock the Vote’s new t-shirt design, which includes a QR code that, when scanned, takes smartphone owners to a the Rock the Vote website where they can register to vote via the web."

Mobile is all about doing stuff now rather than later (or never) on the desktop. This is a great use case.

Qryptal Forms have become very popular due to similar needs to create next generation of interactive QR Codes:
