payme Launches Tez QR Payments with 3% Cashback

As part of a strategic partnership, UZCARD and payme are launching payments using Tez QR technology. The project aims to promote cashless and digital payments in Uzbekistan’s retail sector.

Thanks to this integration, more than 15 million payme users can now pay for purchases with their smartphones at over 110,000 retail locations across the country — anywhere Tez QR is available.

To celebrate the launch, payme is announcing a campaign: when paying via Tez QR in the app, users receive 3% cashback on every purchase. Accumulated cashback can be used with an active payme Plus subscription. Detailed campaign terms are available via the link.

How Tez QR Works

Tez QR is a one-time QR code generated on the payment terminal during checkout.

To make a payment, simply tell the cashier you would like to pay by card, open the payme app, scan the QR code displayed on the terminal, and confirm the payment. The purchase amount is already embedded in the code, so it does not need to be entered manually. No physical card is required.

You can pay for purchases using:

  • UZCARD cards
  • Humo cards
  • an electronic wallet
  • other bank cards connected to the payme app

With an active payme Plus subscription, additional options are also available: choosing the payment source, using the “Pay Later” service, and paying with accumulated cashback.

Transaction security is ensured because card details and PIN codes are not shared with the merchant – payment confirmation takes place directly in the app.

Tez QR becomes more accessible: pay at the terminal with any card – now available in new apps

UZCARD, the national payment system, in cooperation with partner payment organizations, continues to expand its QR code–based cashless payment service. The Tez QR payment option using HUMO cards has been introduced in the VIA, Beepul, and Click SuperApp mobile applications.

With this enhancement, users can now make Tez QR payments by selecting the source of funds from either UZCARD or HUMO cards. Payments are completed by scanning a QR code displayed on a POS terminal and confirming the transaction within the mobile application on a smartphone, eliminating the need for a physical card.

The Tez QR service provided by UZCARD enables fast, convenient, and secure QR-based cashless payments by integrating multiple payment instruments into a unified digital environment. The inclusion of HUMO cards expands application functionality and further improves accessibility for everyday transactions.

The ongoing development of the Tez QR service, along with the continued expansion of supported cards and payment solutions, remains a key strategic priority for UZCARD and its technology partners.
