Need help with SumUp Pay?

There are several ways you can pay using SumUp Pay. To pay a SumUp merchant, you can either scan a merchant's QR code at their business or pay using a payment link that is sent to you by a merchant.

A payment link is usually sent by a merchant via email or SMS, using a messaging service like WhatsApp or on social media.

To pay at any merchant, you can create your own virtual Mastercard, the SumUp Pay Mstercard. It can be used with Apple Pay or Google Pay to make contactless payments.

It’s easy. If you want to complete a payment to a SumUp merchant via QR code or Payment link, you can save your card details to your SumUp Pay profile and the amount will be deducted from this card if the payment is successful.

It’s also possible to store multiple cards on your profile and decide which one you want to use during the payment process.

You can always top up your SumUp Pay profile and the funds will be deducted directly from your balance.

A QR code is similar to a barcode. It holds information that is read when scanned. Using SumUp Pay, you can scan a participating merchant's QR code and complete your payment using the app.

With SumUp Pay, you can pay at any participating SumUp merchant. You can either scan the merchant's QR code from their smart device or from a stand, display or sticker at the merchant’s business.

Participating merchants may place their QR code display by their checkout, but it may be placed in the area where you make your order, such as at your table or counter. If you can’t find the merchant's QR code, you can always ask if they’re a participating SumUp merchant.

Your merchant can send you a payment link via email, SMS or other messaging services like WhatsApp. Tapping on the link will automatically open SumUp Pay and display the amount owed to the merchant. All you have to do is confirm the payment to complete the transaction.

When you pay a payment link with a credit card as a verified SumUp Pay customer, your bank or credit card issuer may in some instances charge you a cash advance fee. SumUp Pay charges no fees and has no control over third-party fees. To avoid being charged a cash advance fee, we recommend you add money to your account and pay payment links using your SumUp Pay balance, or a linked debit card.
