<Info>This feature is designed to be paired with [HitPay Static QRs](/static-qrs/static-qr)</Info>

## Overview

Using printed QR codes can make it hard to know when a customer has paid. This opens the door to fraud, confusion, and missed transactions.

With HitPay's In-App Audio Alerts, your phone announces every payment instantly — no extra device required.
Just print your QR or use the free standee we provide, and let your phone do the talking.
