About Bluecode

General information about Bluecode

What is Bluecode?

Bluecode is the first pan-European mobile payment solution that enables cashless payments via Android smartphone, iPhone and Apple Watch combined with value-added services in a single technology platform. In accordance with European data protection standards, no personal data is ever exchanged with participating banks or merchants thus none is stored or transmitted on the mobile phone during the payment process. The highly secure, TAN-based payment system works with all checking accounts and is independent from the transmission technology (barcode, QR code, bluetooth).

Bluecode started in 2017 in Austria. Since 2018, Alipay users have also been benefiting from a cooperation between Bluecode and Alipay. The expansion into the German market took place in the same year.

How do customers link Bluecode to their bank account?

With Bluecode there are two ways app users can link their bank account:

With partner banks, they can register immediately and directly in their bank’s app or online banking. This registration is particularly fast and possible at all Bluecode partner banks.
At all other banks, you can register using a SEPA direct debit procedure. The direct debit mandate is stored and the payment processed by SIX Payment Services Ltd. SIX is a company audited by the Financial Market Authority and one of the largest direct debit processors in the German-speaking countries.

Are there payment limits when paying with Bluecode?

For security reasons Bluecode limits the number of payments to four payments per hour and ten payments per day with a transaction limit of 400€. This may vary depending on the issuer.

How does the Bluecode QR code payment work?

Bluecode QR Code Payment is a variant of eCommerce Payment. The checkout system (merchant's shop) produces a QR Code according to the payment data by calling a Bluecode API via

This section describes the parameters which must be transferred within the data set (Record) for executing an Bluecode payment and information can be found within the response file about the payment status

For Batch calls there must be considered batch versions, from which optional parameters depend. All version designations starting with „2.“ pertain calls for a group of enterprises. That means within a batch file for a particular MerchantID can be transferred transactions for other merchants with a separate Sub-MID

The entry "Activate a test user" is then displayed. A test account can be added by clicking on it.
To do this, select the first entry "Hypo Tirol".
A blue code for payment is then displayed.
To scan a QR code with your smartphone, tap the QR symbol in the top left of the app to activate the camera.
The amount is then displayed on the smartphone for confirmation. You confirm this by "swiping".

In the Bluecode Sandbox app, no "real" payments are made, they are only simulated!

Info

The Bluecode Sandbox App also has some transaction limits (per hour / per day). In case you need to disable the transaction limits please send an email together with your Bluecode Sandbox App "Bluecode ID" to devsupport@bluecode.com.

You will find the Bluecode ID here:
