**User payment tips**

* Users only need to scan the QR code to finish the payment. QR code can be generated with **qr\_code** value.
* Add a Copy QRCODE button. For mobile users, they can copy the string of **qr\_code** and paste it into their wallet app to finish the payment. Adding a copy button could help to improve the user's payment experience.
