While QR payments have become commonplace everywhere from street stalls to large shopping malls, consumer inconvenience is ironically concentrated on the "post-payment" experience. Although scanning takes only a second, structural limitations persist: users must dig through apps to find receipts or engage in disputes with merchants for refunds.
ZEKTO, an innovative blockchain infrastructure company, announced that it has filed a patent for "Visual Code-Based On-chain Payment" technology (Application No. 10-2026-0001287). This move aims to solve chronic e-commerce management issues and secure a leading position in the global Web3 payment infrastructure market.
While existing virtual asset payments have focused primarily on "remittance" (simply sending coins), the core of ZEKTO's new patent lies in linking the entire lifecycle—from payment request to completion and subsequent status changes (refunds, cancellations, etc.)—into a single blockchain record.
Until now, managing receipts was inconvenient as they were scattered across different apps. The “ZEKTO On-chain Proof” system suggests a new standard for commerce infrastructure. Beyond simple transaction checks, all changes in transaction status are reflected in real-time, allowing users to manage history transparently through a single wallet app.
Under this structure, consumers no longer need to jump between multiple applications to find receipts; they can track payment history and refund status in one place. Merchants can also simplify dispute resolution by verifying payment facts through transaction records stored on the blockchain.
The system significantly enhances security while maintaining the user’s daily routine. Consumers finish payments by simply scanning a QR code as usual, but behind the scenes, ZEKTO’s proprietary “Secure-Trust Protocol” operates to block data forgery and unauthorized payment attempts in real-time.
Furthermore, ZEKTO has raised security to the highest industry standards through a next-generation verification structure that protects user privacy while perfectly proving the authenticity of the transaction. Industry experts evaluate ZEKTO’s move as an evolution of blockchain payments—moving beyond "fast and cheap fees" toward the essential realms of "management and proof" required in real-world commerce.
Eugene Lee, CEO of ZEKTO, stated, “The payment itself takes only seconds, but the subsequent refund or verification process causes significant stress for users. Our goal is to create a Web3 payment environment so easy and secure that users don’t even realize they are using blockchain technology.”
ZEKTO currently possesses an integrated technology stack spanning blockchain networks, wallet infrastructure, and service integration. Based on this patent, the company plans to accelerate technical cooperation with domestic and international Payment Gateways (PGs) and e-commerce firms to establish global Web3 payment infrastructure standards.
