How it works
Three steps for the guest. Nothing to install. Nothing to download.
Guest scans a sticker on the sauna, locker, or door. The browser opens to a checkout page — no app, no account.
Card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay in one tap. Stripe handles the payment. You keep 95%, QROpen takes 5%.
The device turns on within seconds — relay flips, door PIN appears, or smart lock unlocks. The guest gets a receipt.

Why hosts care
Pilot target from the QROpen 2026 roadmap. One sauna, one laundry machine, one party room — each can clear three figures a month at typical guest pricing.
No app install means no Play Store detour. Median scan-to-pay-to-unlock is under two minutes — fast enough that the guest doesn't reconsider.
No subscription, no per-device charge, no minimum transaction volume. Our fee is a small flat percentage of what guests actually pay — same math whether you do ten transactions a month or a thousand.
Commodity Shelly relays for power-driven amenities and Igloohome PIN locks for doors. You wire one device, you stick on one QR poster, you go live.
Run the numbers
Three inputs. Adjust them to your property. The platform fee comes from the same source the billing code uses.
Saunas, laundry machines, lockers, doors.
CAD, pre-tax. C$3 minimum.
A sauna with one paid session a day clears 30.
Monthly estimate
That's $145/month per amenity, after QROpen and Stripe fees.
Stripe fees are typical for Canadian domestic cards; cross-border and Amex transactions cost more. Sales tax is added on top of guest payments by Stripe Tax and does not affect the split.
Get started
Onboarding takes a single video call. We help you wire your first device, print your QR poster, and connect your Stripe payout account.
FAQ
No. Guests scan the QR sticker, the browser opens, they pay with card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay, and the device turns on. There is nothing to install.
For power-driven amenities (sauna, laundry, console, smart outlet) you wire a Shelly Plus 1 relay — about C$40 retail. For doors and lockers you use an Igloohome PIN lock. If you already own a compatible smart lock (August, Yale, Schlage, SALTO KS), we can route through it instead.
Through Stripe Connect Express. You onboard in about ten minutes, payouts land in your bank account on the standard Stripe schedule. QROpen takes a flat 3% of each transaction; the rest is yours.
For relay-controlled amenities the device needs network at unlock time — if it's offline, the guest is refunded automatically and you're notified. For doors we use Igloohome's offline algoPIN, which means the lock itself never needs Wi-Fi.
QR codes resolve to short-lived signed tokens, payments go through Stripe (PCI-DSS Level 1), and your guest data lives in a Canadian Supabase region for PIPEDA compliance. The unlock signal only fires after a successful payment confirmation.
Yes. Per device, with a C$3 minimum per transaction. You can also run different prices at different times of day once that lands in Q3 2026.
No. The flat 3% per-transaction fee is the only charge. No subscription, no per-device fee, no minimum transaction volume.
