My PayPal QR Code on my new Lanyard says: 'Seller Needs to Activate. How dose One activate the QR Code.

Hi @Blackpoundman, 

Thank you for your post, and welcome back to the community! I'm sorry to hear that the QR code isn't working.

Typically, the QR code should work as soon as it is generated. You can learn more in this Help Center article. If it is not working and you have no other issues with receiving payments through other means, please check in with Customer Service for assistance and troubleshooting. You can find your contact options by clicking Contact at the bottom of the PayPal website. 

I hope this can be resolved quickly!

Good evening, Olivia. Dear Lady. POSITIVE 2023 2U 🎊 🎉 🎋 💐 I trust that you're very well. Thanx for taking the time to drop your very kind speedy reply. The QR Code I'm wanting to activate is the card one that comes with the PayPal Lanyard. It has to be 'authorised. My PayPal QR Code on my new Lanyard says: 'Seller Needs to Activate. How dose One activate the QR Code, is what I want to do. Google and YouTube - I've looked it up on noth and nothing exist, explaing how to do so, which is very surprising... In anticipation of your kindness... Yours faithfully WARREN [removed]  [removed] 💷 Biziness Innovation Manager / Online Campaign Founder Cambridge - England[removed]

Hi @Blackpoundman, 

Thank you for that clarification.

The instructions for activation should have been included in the kit. I'm sorry to hear that they are absent. I have found the instructions, but they require an activation code that would have been included in the instructions in your kit. Please contact Customer Service for assistance with activation if you are not able to find the instructions. Your contact options can be found by looking on the PayPal website for the Contact link at the bottom of the page, and clicking that.

I hope this helps!

Hi, did you manage to activate your qr code wallet card? What did you have to do exactly?

[Blackpoundman]

Have you been able to match or synchronise your account with the QR Code on the plastic card that comes with the PayPal Lanyard? I've not been able to match the QR code card attached to my Blackpoundman PayPal account. I've been at this for days on and off, tried it with my Galaxy S22 ULTRA, and S6 Tablet to no available and get the same message. Even on YouTube and Google, I've not seen a Post by anyone who has done so, successfully. Is there therefore a problem with the PayPal Business App? Can you please help, and Post your successful findings and outcome.

i am having the same issue, ordered a sticker set so i can pop them on things to get tips. but the app has no activation option. i am searching online on how to do this but im getting no where. feel like i've been royally scammed. i guess the best option is to download the QR codes in the app that already exist and print them yourself or via a third party sticker and printer company. but these ones direct from paypal are useless and ive paid for them but i might just have to call it a loss and warn others not to fall for it.
