# Adds an expiration timestamp to the Swish QR code object

## What’s new

Swish payment QR codes now include an [expires_at](https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object.md?api-version=2026-09-30.endive#payment_intent_object-next_action-swish_handle_redirect_or_display_qr_code-qr_code-expires_at) timestamp for [Payment Intents](https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object.md?api-version=2026-09-30.endive) with a [qr_code](https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object.md?api-version=2026-09-30.endive#payment_intent_object-next_action-swish_handle_redirect_or_display_qr_code-qr_code) in [next_action.swish_handle_redirect_or_display_qr_code](https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object.md?api-version=2026-09-30.endive#payment_intent_object-next_action-swish_handle_redirect_or_display_qr_code). This integer property contains the QR code’s expiration time as a Unix timestamp.

## Impact

Previously, your integration had to estimate when a Swish QR code expired.

You can now use the exact expiration time to display an accurate countdown and automatically hide expired QR codes. This provides clear guidance to customers and prevents attempts to scan a code that’s no longer valid.
