== Description ==

This plugin displays GiroCodes for easy bank transfers. A GiroCode is a QR code with data for a transfer which can be scanned into a banking app.

GiroCode is a European standard for transfers in the SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) currently covering 36 countries and territories.

Shortcode examples:

`[girocode beneficiary="Deutsches Rotes Kreuz e. V." iban="DE63370205000005023307" amount="10.00" purpose="Internationale Soforthilfe"]
[girocode beneficiary="Deutsches Rotes Kreuz e. V." iban="DE63370205000005023307" amount="10.00" purpose="Internationale Soforthilfe" type="CHAR"]
[girocode beneficiary="Deutsches Rotes Kreuz e. V." iban="DE63370205000005023307" amount="10.00" purpose="Internationale Soforthilfe" size="100"]
[girocode beneficiary="Deutsches Rotes Kreuz e. V." IBAN="DE63370205000005023307" amount="1.00" purpose="Internationale Soforthilfe" size="200"]`
