How to Say ‘You can also scan a code.’ in Simplified Chinese

也可以扫码。

yě kě yǐ sǎo mǎ

[yeah kuh yee sow mah]

💬 Usage Tip: [也] goes before [可以], so [也可以扫码] means "you can also pay by QR code." This word order is common: [也可以现金] "cash is also okay," [也可以等一下] "you can also wait a moment."

🇨🇳 In China: This suggests QR payment is one option among others, not the only one. In China, drivers often list payment methods this way: cash, QR code, sometimes app transfer.
