Paytm QR code lets you wirelessly transfer money by simply scanning them, without requiring to enter the phone number or any other details of the recipient. However, not many people know that the Paytm app lets you scan QR codes not only by using the camera but also from the photo gallery of your iPhone. This means that you can scan a Paytm QR code even if you don't have access to that code physically. It makes things easier if you want to send money to someone's Paytm account but don't have their phone number handy.

Many shops across India nowadays have a Paytm QR code to accept cashless payments. Paytm also lets individuals share the QR code to receive money from others. But if you don't have the physical access to the Paytm QR code, you can scan them on your iPhone through your photo gallery.

How to scan a Paytm QR code from the gallery in your iPhone
