Mobile web app, command line app, and JavaScript library to generate QR Code payload for PromptPay.

The Bank of Thailand introduced a PromptPay QRCode Standard that works with most mobile banking apps in Thailand.

By generating a QR code, users of mobile banking apps can scan your QR code, and transfer money to your PromptPay account instantly.

In this repository:

• Mobile app — Receive money from your home screen.

• Command-line application — Receive money from your terminal.

• promptpay-qr JavaScript API — Generate a PromptPay QR code programmatically.

• The PromptPay QR code is based on EMV QRCPS Merchant Presented Mode specification.

• The QR code contains the PromptPay ID. This means anyone who sees the QR code can find out your PromptPay ID (Phone number, National ID number). Please treat the QR code like your personal information.

• The QR code can optionally contain the transfer amount. Mobile banking apps use this number to pre-fill the amount for convenience.

You can quickly receive money from your home screen.

For example, if you want to collect 80 Baht from each friend, you can open the app, type in 80, and show the QR code. It takes less than 5 seconds.

To use it:

1. Open Chrome (on Android) or Safari (iOS).

2. Go to https://promptpay2.me/.

3. Set your PromptPay ID.

4. “Add to Home Screen.”

Features:

• The app remembers your PromptPay ID, so you don’t have to enter the information each time.

• It is a Progressive Web App, so you can add to home screen and it will work offline (Android).

• No personal data is sent to any server. Your PromptPay ID stays in your phone/computer.

You can receive money from your terminal.
