 ## [Unreleased]
+- In the making
+
+## [3.0.0] - 2026-09-17
+
+Correctness release. Earlier versions could emit a UPI URI that violated the NPCI
+UPI Linking Specification. The QR code still scanned, so the only symptom was a
+payment that failed in the payer's app, seemingly at random, depending on the
+amount and note involved.
+
+### Fixed
+- Spaces are now percent-encoded as `%20` instead of `+`. The specification's own
+  example URIs use `%20`; `+` is only correct for HTML form bodies, and PSP apps
+  that decode strictly showed names like `Test+User`.
+- Amounts are normalised to exactly two decimal places. `1499.5` now emits
+  `am=1499.50`, and float representation noise (`0.1 + 0.2`) no longer emits
+  `am=0.30000000000000004`, which PSP apps reject.
+- An amount with more than two decimal places, a zero amount, or a negative amount
+  now raises `Upi::ValidationError` instead of producing an unpayable QR code.
+- `am` and `tn` are omitted entirely when not supplied. Previously every call
+  without an amount emitted `am=0&tn=`, which Google Pay and PhonePe reject.
+- Values can no longer break out of the query string. A note containing `&` or `#`
+  used to truncate or forge parameters in `no_url_parse: false` mode.
+- PNG output is sized by module rather than pinned to a 300px canvas, so a longer
+  payload produces a larger image instead of modules too small to scan reliably.
+- `#upi_content` and `#generate_qr` no longer mutate the instance. `#params` is
+  frozen, calls no longer leak into one another, and instances can be shared.
+
+### Added
+- Validation of every field against the specification: payee address format,
+  four-digit ISO 18245 merchant code, `INR`-only currency, 50-character note
+  limit, 35-character alphanumeric references, and `http(s)`-only URLs.
+- `transaction_ref_id` is now required for merchant transactions carrying an
+  amount, as the specification mandates, and `Upi::Generator.generate_reference`
+  builds a unique one. A reused reference is rejected by PSPs as a duplicate,
+  which is why a QR with a hard-coded reference works once and then stops.
+- `min_amount:` for the `mam` tag, which lets the payer edit the amount down to a
+  floor.
+- `initiation_mode:` for the `mode` tag, with `MODE_QR` and friends. Opt-in.
+- `level:` and renderer options on `#generate_qr`.
+- `Upi::ValidationError`.
+
+### Changed
+- Parameters are emitted in the order used by the specification's examples:
+  `pa, pn, mc, tid, tr, tn, am, mam, cu, url, mode`.
+- `no_url_parse: false` now means "leave URL-safe punctuation readable" rather
+  than "do not escape anything"; separators are always escaped in both modes.
+- `#params` returns the frozen constructor parameters, not the last call's state.
+- QR error correction defaults to `:m` rather than rqrcode's `:h`, giving larger
+  modules at the same image size.
+
+## [2.0.2] - 2024-09-08
+- For Individual Mode there need not be merchant code being sent. Removed default '0000'. Can be still added explicitly.
+- Changed the upi_content method to not parse the upi address and keep it as it is.
+- Add support for no uri parse.
+
+## [2.0.1] - 2024-09-06
+- Updated Dependencies
 
 ## [2.0.0] - 2024-09-06
 - Add support for changing amounts after initialization

 # UPI
 
-The `upi` gem allows you to generate UPI QR codes for user-to-user payments. It supports both PNG and SVG formats for QR codes.
+The `upi` gem generates UPI payment URIs and QR codes, in PNG or SVG, that conform to the
+[NPCI UPI Linking Specification](https://www.npci.org.in/what-we-do/upi/product-overview)
+(common URL specification for deep linking and proximity integration).

 ## Usage
 
-Generating a QR Code
-To generate a UPI QR code, you need to initialize the Upi::Generator class with the required parameters and call the generate_qr method.
+Initialize `Upi::Generator` with the payee details, then call `generate_qr` for a QR code or
+`upi_content` for the raw payment URI. Generator instances are immutable and safe to reuse
+and share across threads.

-### Generating a Payment URL
-You can generate a UPI payment URL suitable for use in HTML links by using the generate_url method. This URL can be used as the href attribute in a "Pay Now" button or link.
+#### Payment URI
+
+`upi_content` returns a UPI URI you can use as the `href` of a "Pay Now" link:
 
 ```ruby
-# Generate UPI payment URL
 payment_url = generator.upi_content(100, 'Personal Payment')
-puts payment_url
-
-# The generate_url method returns a UPI URI string that can be used as a link in your HTML:
+# => "upi://pay?pa=test@upi&pn=Test%20Name&tn=Personal%20Payment&am=100.00&cu=INR"
 ```
 
 ```html
 <a href="<%= payment_url %>">Pay Now</a>
 ```
 
-Merchant Mode:
+#### Letting the payer choose the amount
+
+Omit the amount and the `am` tag is left out, so the payer types their own. Never pass `0` for
+this — UPI apps reject `am=0`, and the gem raises rather than emit it.
 
-### Create a new UPI QR code generator instance
 ```ruby
-require 'upi'
+generator.upi_content
+# => "upi://pay?pa=test@upi&pn=Test%20Name&cu=INR"
+```
 
+### Merchant mode (P2M)
+
+Pass a four-digit [ISO 18245](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merchant_category_code) merchant
+category code:
+
+```ruby
 generator = Upi::Generator.new(
-  upi_id: 'test@upi',
+  upi_id: 'merchant@upi',
   name: 'Test Name',
-  merchant_code: '1234',
-  currency: 'INR'
+  merchant_code: '5411'
+)
+```
+
+A merchant payment that carries an amount **must** also carry a transaction reference (`tr`),
+and that reference **must be unique for every payment attempt**. PSPs reject a reference they
+have already seen as a duplicate, so a QR code with a hard-coded reference works once and then
+silently stops. `Upi::Generator.generate_reference` builds a suitable one:
+
+```ruby
+reference = Upi::Generator.generate_reference('ORD')  # => "ORD20260917131656E4BBC91A"
+
+svg_content = generator.generate_qr(
+  500, 'Payment for Goods',
+  transaction_ref_id: reference,
+  transaction_id: 'TXN456',
+  url: 'https://merchant.com/payment',
+  mode: :svg
 )
+```
+
+In practice the reference is your own order or invoice number, which is what makes
+reconciliation work:
+
+```ruby
+generator.upi_content(500, 'Payment for Goods', transaction_ref_id: "ORD#{order.id}")
+```
 
-# NOTE: For Merchant Mode the Merchant Code needs to be set explicitly
+Leaving the amount out produces a static "shop counter" QR, which needs no reference because
+the payer supplies a fresh one each time:
 
+```ruby
+generator.upi_content
+# => "upi://pay?pa=merchant@upi&pn=Test%20Name&mc=5411&cu=INR"
 ```
 
-### Generate QR code in SVG format
+### Letting the payer pay at least a minimum
+
+`min_amount` maps to the `mam` tag: the amount becomes editable, down to that floor.
+
 ```ruby
-svg_content = generator.generate_qr(500, 'Payment for Goods', transaction_ref_id: 'REF123', transaction_id: 'TXN456', url: 'https://merchant.com/payment', mode: :svg)
-File.write('qr_code_merchant.svg', svg_content)

+# => "upi://pay?pa=merchant@upi&pn=Test%20Name&mc=5411&tr=ORD90211&tn=Donation&am=500.00&mam=100.00&cu=INR"
 ```
 
-### Generate QR code in PNG format
+## Parameters
+
+### `Upi::Generator.new`
+
+| Parameter | Required | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `upi_id:` | yes | Payee VPA, `name@psp`. Max 255 characters. |
+| `name:` | yes | Payee name shown on the payer's confirmation screen. Max 99 characters. |
+| `currency:` | no | Defaults to `'INR'`, the only value UPI supports. |
+| `merchant_code:` | no | Four-digit ISO 18245 category code. Its presence selects merchant mode. |
+| `no_url_parse:` | no | Encoding strictness, see [Encoding](#encoding). Defaults to `true`. |
+
+### `#upi_content` and `#generate_qr`
+
+Both take the same payment arguments; `generate_qr` adds the rendering ones.
+
+| Parameter | Notes |
+| --- | --- |
+| `amount` | First positional. Omit to let the payer choose. Max two decimal places. |
+| `note` | Second positional. Maps to `tn`. Max 50 characters. |
+| `transaction_ref_id:` | `tr`. Mandatory for merchant payments with an amount. Max 35 alphanumeric characters. |
+| `transaction_id:` | `tid`, PSP-generated when present. Max 35 alphanumeric characters. |
+| `url:` | `http(s)` URL with further transaction detail. |
+| `min_amount:` | `mam`. Makes the amount editable down to this floor. |
+| `initiation_mode:` | `mode`. Opt-in, see [Initiation mode](#initiation-mode). |
+| `mode:` | `generate_qr` only. `:svg` (default) or `:png`. |
+| `level:` | `generate_qr` only. QR error correction: `:l`, `:m` (default), `:q`, `:h`. |
+
+Any other keyword to `generate_qr` is passed through to the renderer, so
+`module_px_size:`, `border_modules:`, `color:` and the rest of the
+[rqrcode](https://github.com/whomwah/rqrcode) options still work:
+
 ```ruby
-png_content = generator.generate_qr(500, 'Payment for Goods', transaction_ref_id: 'REF123', transaction_id: 'TXN456', url: 'https://merchant.com/payment', mode: :png)
-File.binwrite('qr_code_merchant.png', png_content)
+generator.generate_qr(100, 'Tea', mode: :png, module_px_size: 12, color: '333')
 ```
 
-### Generating a Payment URL
-You can generate a UPI payment URL suitable for use in HTML links by using the generate_url method. This URL can be used as the href attribute in a "Pay Now" button or link.
+## Amounts
 
+Amounts are normalised to the two-decimal format UPI requires, and anything that cannot be
+represented that way raises rather than producing an unpayable QR code.
 
 ```ruby
-# Generate UPI payment URL
-payment_url = generator.upi_content(500, 'Payment for Goods', transaction_ref_id: 'REF123', transaction_id: 'TXN456', url: 'https://merchant.com/payment')
-puts payment_url
+generator.upi_content(100)            # => "...&am=100.00&..."
+generator.upi_content(1499.5)         # => "...&am=1499.50&..."
+generator.upi_content(0.1 + 0.2)      # => "...&am=0.30&..."     float noise is discarded
+generator.upi_content(BigDecimal('99.9'))
 
-# The generate_url method returns a UPI URI string that can be used as a link in your HTML:
+generator.upi_content(100.456)        # raises Upi::ValidationError, more than two decimals
+generator.upi_content(0)              # raises Upi::ValidationError, UPI apps reject am=0
 ```
 
-```html
-<a href="<%= payment_url %>">Pay Now</a>
+Pass a `String` or `BigDecimal` when the amount comes from a currency column, so no float ever
+touches it.
+
+## Validation
+
+Every field is checked against the specification before a URI is built, and a failure raises
+`Upi::ValidationError` (a subclass of `Upi::Error`). This is deliberate: an invalid UPI URI
+still produces a perfectly scannable QR code, so without validation the only symptom is a
+payment that fails later, in the payer's app.
+
+```ruby
+Upi::Generator.new(upi_id: 'not-a-vpa', name: 'X')
+# Upi::ValidationError: upi_id "not-a-vpa" is not a valid UPI address (expected 'name@psp')
+```
+
+## Encoding
+
+Values are percent-encoded per RFC 3986, with spaces as `%20`, matching the example URIs in
+the specification. `no_url_parse` selects how aggressive that is:
+
+* `true` (default) encodes down to the unreserved set.
+* `false` leaves URL-safe punctuation such as `:` and `/` readable.
+
+Either way the characters that would corrupt the query string — `&`, `#`, `%`, `+` and space —
+are always escaped, so a note like `Tea & Coffee #12` can never truncate the URI or forge
+another parameter. Redirect URLs keep their `://` readable in both modes.
+
+## Initiation mode
+
+The specification lists a `mode` tag (`01` for QR, `04` for intent). It is left out by default,
+since most PSP apps accept a URI without it and existing integrations rely on that. Opt in when
+you want it:
+
+```ruby
+generator.upi_content(500, 'Goods', transaction_ref_id: 'ORD1',
+                      initiation_mode: Upi::Generator::MODE_QR)
+# => "...&cu=INR&mode=01"
 ```
 
-#### In the example above:
+Signed QR codes (`mode=02`, requiring the `sign` and `orgid` tags) are not supported.
 
-* Replace `'test@upi'` with the UPI ID of the recipient.
-* Replace `'Test Name'` with the recipient's name.
-* The `amount` parameter specifies the payment amount.
-* `note` is an optional field to include additional information.
-Parameters
-* upi_id: The UPI ID of the recipient.
-* name: The name of the recipient.
-* amount: The amount for the payment (required for UPI transactions).
-* currency: Currency code (default is 'INR').
-* note: Additional note or description for the payment.
-* merchant_code: Optional merchant code.
-* transaction_ref_id: Optional transaction reference ID.
-* transaction_id: Optional transaction ID.
-* url: Optional URL for additional information or payment redirect.
+## Upgrading from 2.x
 
-#### Handling PNG and SVG
-You can specify the format of the QR code by using the mode parameter:
+3.0 changes the generated URI so that it complies with the specification. See the
+[CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for the full list. The changes most likely to affect you:
 
-* mode: :svg generates an SVG format QR code.
-* mode: :png generates a PNG format QR code.
+* Spaces encode as `%20`, not `+`, and parameters are emitted in the specification's order, so
+  any test asserting an exact URI string needs updating.
+* Amounts always carry two decimals: `am=100` is now `am=100.00`.
+* Calling without an amount no longer emits `am=0&tn=`; both tags are omitted.
+* Invalid input now raises `Upi::ValidationError` instead of silently producing a broken QR
+  code. Merchant payments with an amount now require `transaction_ref_id`.
+* `#params` returns the frozen constructor parameters rather than the last call's state.
+* PNG output is sized by module rather than pinned to 300px, so images vary in size with the
+  payload. Pass `size:` or `module_px_size:` to control it.
