Business Users - How do I customise QR codes and Paylinks using the BOPP app?
ep 1. Customise your request by clicking the icon in the bottom left 
.
This will enable you to add a reference, decide when the Paylink expires and decide who sets the payment amount.
Step 2. Once you have defined these settings you can apply them to this request only or click 'Save as default settings' to apply them to future pay requests.
Step 3. Edit the reference by clicking on Payment Reference, you have 3 options
- Set by me - this is where you type in the reference you wish to appear to the payer
- Set by payer - this is where the payer and type in the reference while they are making the payment
- Autonumber - this is where you define the prefix for all reference and BOPP increments the number after each request (this should be saved as a default setting if you wish to use)
Step 4. Setting the 'Valid Until' setting
In this section you have a number of options
- Single use - This is where the request generated can only be paid once and once the payment is complete the QR Code or paylink becomes invalid
- Multi-use - This means the QR Code or paylink generated can be used up until your account maximum is reached
- After X-payments - This is where you define the set number of times a payment can be made, this is a useful option for ticket sales
The option "On a certain-date" can be used in conjunction with of the 3 settings above and means after this date the QR Code or paylink will become invalid.
Step 5. Decide who sets the amount
- Fixed - This is where you choose to set the payment amount or let the payer decide.
- Set by Payer - This allows the payer to choose, this option is useful if you're collecting charity donations or voluntary contributions.
- Suggested - This means you are setting a default amount but the payer can either increase or decrease this amount at the point of payment.
- Min Amount - This means you are setting a minimum amount that can be paid but the payer can choose to increase the amount.
Step 6. Request Email
This section allows you to request a payers email and also to give them the option of opting in for your marketing consent.
Step 7. Notes
Within the Notes section you can either choose to display a message to your payers by selecting the option "Set by me" or you can simply enabled the notes field so that the payer can supply you with information by selecting "Set by payer".
