Tata Sky subscribers will now see a QR Code on their screens, which can be scanned using a smartphone. The Tata Sky QR Code will redirect to a payment platform powered by mVisa.

The mVisa solution for Tata Sky subscribers will cater to a large user base across India – T.R. Ramachandran, Group Country Manager, India and South Asia, Visa

It seems that Tata Sky is taking a cue from Indian mobile payments provider Paytm. In 2015, Paytm rolled out peer-to-peer payments using QR Codes.
