In much of Europe a client can pay an invoice by scanning a QR code in their banking app. Euro-zone freelancers and firms can put that code on every invoice without a separate generator.
Claude can't draw a scannable QR code by itself. The Barcode server makes an EPC069-12 SEPA payment QR from IBAN, name, amount and reference as SVG or PNG, so the client pays from their banking app. Test-scan it before you send.

Claude can explain the EPC QR format and list the fields. It can't draw an image, so it can't make a code a banking app will scan.
Barcode makes an EPC069-12 SEPA payment QR code from IBAN, beneficiary, amount and reference, or one for a stored invoice using the IBAN from your business profile. It writes SVG or PNG and also makes plain QR, vCard, WiFi and linear barcodes.
Example scenarios built on the real tools of Barcode. Names and amounts are invented.
