The QR Code for UPI does not work. #275

UPI has a different QR code system.

Just generating the QR code of the text address will not work.

I dont know how to generate UPI QR codes. But mobile apps that support UPI, can generate a QR to receive payments.

Users of coindrop can upload that QR code.

I downloaded the QR generated by my wallet app (a person who scans this QR is able to pay any amount). Now, after converting it to text version, I got like this :

upi://pay?pa=somebody@upi

I entered this url in my address bar:

  1. In desktop, there was no compatible app to handle the scheme upi://
  2. In mobile, the list of UPI supported apps appeared. I choose one to open with, but then it showed failed to load. ( I dont know why it failed. I was expecting, that same thing would happen, when QR is scanned directly )
