What is Octopus?

Octopus is a digital wallet that stores cards and credentials so customers can pay in one tap — no card numbers, no typing.

Octopus is a digital wallet payment method active in Hong Kong. Customers store their cards, bank accounts or balance inside Octopus and check out with biometrics, a PIN, or a QR scan. Facilitate seamless payments for Hong Kong customers through their Octopus wallets.

With PayRequest, you create a Octopus payment link once and share it anywhere — WhatsApp, email, SMS, social DMs, or a printed QR code. When the customer opens the link, Octopus appears as the primary payment option on supported devices and falls back to card or other methods on the rest.

Wallet checkouts like Octopus convert 25–30% higher than typing a card number, especially on mobile. PayRequest charges 0% — you only pay your underlying card processing rate.

FAQ

Octopus payment links

How does a Octopus payment link work?
Create a link with PayRequest. When a customer with Octopus set up opens it, the wallet appears as the primary payment option. They confirm with biometrics — payment completes in seconds.
What does Octopus cost?
Octopus uses your standard rate from Stripe or Mollie — typically around 1.4% for European cards or 2.9% + €0.25 for international. PayRequest charges 0% on top.
Do customers need an app?
Most Octopus users have it built into their phone or browser. No download required for the customer experience.
Can I scan a Octopus QR code?
Yes — every PayRequest link comes with a QR code. Customers scan it with their phone camera and the link opens with Octopus ready to confirm.
Does Octopus work for subscriptions?
Yes — most wallets support recurring charges through saved credentials. Set up a subscription in PayRequest and Octopus handles repeating payments automatically.
