Pix QR code with fixed amount

Create a static Pix code with the amount already set: the customer scans, checks the R$ amount and the name, and confirms. Ideal for invoices, raffles, monthly fees and single-price products.

Pix key required Examples: 123.456.789-09, +55 11 91234-5678, nome@email.com or the 36-character random key.

Recipient name required 0/25 Up to 25 characters, no accents (removed automatically).

City required 0/15 Up to 15 characters, no accents.

Amount (R$) optional Comma or dot, up to two decimals: 25,90

Identifier (txid) optional Letters and digits, up to 25. Empty = ***

Description optional

Single-use code Sets field 01 = 12; the payer's app may refuse to reuse the code.

Nothing is sent. Your Pix key never leaves this page.

What is a Pix QR code with an amount?

A Pix QR code with an amount is a static code in the BR Code standard in which field 54 (Transaction Amount) is already filled in. When the customer scans it, the app shows the amount, the recipient's name and the key for checking, and the payment goes through with one tap, without typing anything. Everything else in the code is the same as in a regular Pix QR code: key, name, city, identifier and CRC.

How to generate it

Enter the Pix key, name and city as for any code.
Enter the amount in reais, with a comma or dot and up to two decimal places. The field comes pre-filled with 25,90 as an example; replace it with your price.
Add an identifier (txid) such as PEDIDO123 or MENSAL0426 to recognise the payment in your statement.

Worked example

Key loja@exemplo.com.br, recipient Padaria Central, city Sao Paulo, amount 25,90, identifier PEDIDO123 produce the code below, 138 characters long:

00020126410014br.gov.bcb.pix0119loja@exemplo.com.br520400005303986540525.905802BR5915Padaria Central6009Sao Paulo62130509PEDIDO1236304DD87

Note the segment 540525.90: ID 54, length 05, amount 25.90 with a dot. Next comes 62130509PEDIDO123: block 62 with 13 characters, containing subfield 05 with 9 characters holding the identifier. The decoder shows this full tree for any code.

Fields of a code with an amount

ID	Field	Value in a static code
00	Payload Format Indicator	`01`, always
01	Point of Initiation Method	omitted or `11` (reusable); `12` = single use
26	Merchant Account Information	subfield 00 = `br.gov.bcb.pix`, 01 = key, 02 = optional description
52	Merchant Category Code	`0000` when there is no category
53	Transaction Currency	`986` = Brazilian real (ISO 4217)
54	Transaction Amount	optional; decimal point, up to 2 places, e.g. `25.90`
58	Country Code	`BR`
59	Merchant Name	recipient name, up to 25 ASCII characters
60	Merchant City	city, up to 15 ASCII characters
62	Additional Data Field	subfield 05 = txid (up to 25 alphanumeric characters) or `***`
63	CRC	CRC16-CCITT (polynomial 0x1021, initial 0xFFFF) of everything before it, including `6304`

When to use a fixed amount and when to leave it open

Situation	Recommendation
Shop counter, snack bar, market stall	No amount: every purchase is different and the customer enters it.
Single product, ticket, raffle, fee	With an amount: avoids typos and speeds up the queue.
Monthly fee, condo fee, school	With an amount and an identifier containing the month or the student.
Charge with due date, interest or late fee	Dynamic code issued by the bank; a static code does no date arithmetic.
Donations and tip jars	One code with a suggested amount and another with no amount.

Limits and caveats

The amount is a suggestion stored in the code: some apps let the payer change the amount of a static code before confirming. For a truly locked charge, use your bank's dynamic code.
The code does not know whether it has already been paid. If the same person scans it twice, they will pay twice; tick the single-use code option to set field 01 = 12 and signal to the app that the code should not be reused, bearing in mind that how apps handle that signal varies.
Check the key before sharing it. This site validates the format and the check digits, but does not query the DICT and does not know whether the key is active.

Questions about Pix QR codes with an amount

Can the payer change the amount of a static QR code?

It depends on the app. The BR Code standard stores the amount in field 54 as a suggestion, and some apps let the payer edit the amount of a static code before confirming. If you need an amount that cannot be changed, only a dynamic code issued by your bank guarantees that.

What is the maximum amount?

The field accepts up to 13 characters with two decimal places, which means billions of reais. In practice the limit is the payer's: each bank sets limits per transaction and per period, especially at night.

Can I use cents?

Yes. Type 25,90 or 25.90; the generator accepts both comma and dot and always writes a dot with two decimals (25.90), as the standard requires. Amounts with more than two decimal places are rejected.

How do I know which customer paid?

Use the identifier field (txid) with up to 25 letters and digits, for example the order number. It appears on the receipt and in the recipient's statement at most institutions. For automatic reconciliation with due dates and interest you need a dynamic code from the bank.

Does it work for donations?

Yes. Generate one code with the suggested amount and another with no amount for anyone who wants to give a different sum. Both point to the same key.

Does a code with an amount expire?

No. Static codes have no expiry; the amount stays encoded until you generate another code. If the price changes, generate a new one and replace the image.
