You can only use your iPhone or iPad to make a touch-free PayPal payment at locations that accept PayPal. These places have their own QR codes you can scan with the PayPal app to make your purchase. The QR code may be near the register or on a digital screen.

You may have to confirm your account password before you can continue.

If you don’t have any payment methods added at all, tap Go to Bank and Cards to add one now.

Some small business owners may simply open their own PayPal app to display the QR code for you to scan. Don’t be alarmed by this! If there is no QR code available, you won’t be able to make an in-store payment with PayPal.
