Embodiments are directed to selecting a debit network using a quick response (QR) code and to processing a payment using a debit network selected according to information embedded in a QR code. In one scenario, a mobile computer system receives input indicating that a user has initiated a payment for various items sold by a provider of goods or services. The mobile computer system determines that the user or the provider has specified a preference indicating which debit network is to be used to process the payment. The mobile computer system then generates a QR code with the debit network selection and portions of the user's debit account information embedded in the QR code, and sends the generated QR code to a payment processing system. The payment processing system may be cloud-based, or may be run locally at the provider's point of sale.
