Singapore Quick Response Code (SGQR)

SGQR is the world’s first unified payment QR code. It combines multiple payment QR codes into a single SGQR label, making QR payments simple for both consumers and merchants.

What is SGQR

It is a single standardised QR code for e-payments and combines multiple payment schemes into a single SGQR label. Consumers just need to look out for the SGQR label to see which payment options a merchant accepts, while merchants only need to display one SGQR label instead of many labels. The SGQR scheme is co-owned by MAS and IMDA.

How It Works

Anyone owning a mobile phone with a camera and data connectivity, and an account appropriately set up with e-payment options will be able to make payments via SGQR so long as the merchant supports their choice of payment.
