Introducing Toffee 🍬 — A Simple Way to Accept UPI Tips
I’m excited to share my latest side project — Toffee 🍬, a lightweight open-source tool to accept tips in India via UPI.
The Problem
If you’re a blogger, indie dev, or creator in India, you’ve probably thought about adding a “Support Me” button. But most payment integrations are either too heavy (full backend, gateways, KYC, etc.) or too restrictive.
Sometimes, all you really want is:
👉 A simple way for someone to send you ₹10 as a “thank you”.
The Solution: Toffee
Toffee is my attempt at solving this.
- 🟢 No backend needed — it’s just HTML + JavaScript.
- 📱 UPI-first — works with any UPI app in India.
- 🎨 Polished design — consistent dark mode + responsive layout.
- 📷 Built-in QR code — instantly generated with QRious.
- 🔗 Embed or share — copy a direct link, or use the iframe snippet to add it to your site.
How It Works
- Go to the Toffee generator page.
- Enter your UPI ID, name, and the price per “toffee”.
- Hit Generate Link → Toffee creates:
- A sharable link you can post anywhere.
- An embeddable widget you can add to your site.
Here’s what the payment page looks like 👇
Try It Out
- Live Demo: getmetoffee.vercel.app
- Repo: GitHub
It’s free, open-source, and you can customize it to fit your site.
What’s Next?
I’d love to hear feedback from creators and developers. Possible future additions:
- Support for predefined “packs” (like 5 toffees at once).
- Custom themes (so Toffee blends into your site’s design).
- Better QR code styling.
💡 If you like the project, give it a star on GitHub or share it with someone who might use it.
And if you try Toffee out, let me know — I’d be thrilled to see it in action!
