About
SnapScan is a South African QR payment app managed by Cape Town-based FireID Payments (Pty) Ltd and powered by Standard Bank, which sells it to businesses as a merchant product. The shopper scans the merchant's SnapScan QR code at the counter, or pays online through a payment link the merchant sends, and confirms with a PIN, fingerprint or Face ID. Payment comes from one of up to three saved debit or credit cards, or from a prepaid SnapScan Wallet balance that can also send money to friends. Sign-up requires a South African SIM and an e-commerce-enabled card. SnapScan says over 60,000 merchants accept it nationwide (2026).
