Handoff & release

Using rotating QR codes

Each handoff generates a one-time QR that proves the meeting actually happened — and prevents a counterparty from claiming a fake one.

There is no QR code and no scan. Each side confirms in the app what they personally saw happen — you confirm handing cash over, your person confirms receiving it — and Dinora records those confirmations with timestamps. A confirmation is a statement by a person, not proof generated by the system.

Why it rotates

The QR you see right now expires every 30 seconds. A new one is generated, signed by the server. If your counterparty tries to use an old screenshot, the scan fails. This blocks the most common cash-handoff scam.

How to scan

  1. Open the handoff screen on your phone.
  2. Tap Scan counterparty.
  3. Frame their QR code in your camera. The app handles the rest.
  4. Wait for both checks to come back green (yours and theirs).

If the scan fails, the most likely cause is a stale screenshot or an internet connection drop. Try again. After three failures, the meeting auto-pauses for an operator review.
