How do I know it’s safe? • Your account is protected by a 5-digit number

that you need to input to access the app

• When you scan a QR code, the name of the company you are paying will be shown onscreen so you know exactly where your money is going. This name has to be registered with Barclays, so you know the displayed name is the genuine recipient

• The app only scans QR codes that have been created in the standardised format by an authorised source. Any other QR codes will not be recognised, or read, by the app

• You don’t have to input any account or reference details so there’s no chance of sending money to someone else by accident

• If your phone is lost or stolen, the app can easily be deregistered.
