The reason why Meituan orders cakes directly to the scanning code is to provide a more convenient user experience and fast order confirmation. When users order a cake on the Meituan app, they can choose to pay and confirm their order by scanning the QR code provided by the store. This approach eliminates the need to manually enter order information, saving time and reducing the possibility of errors.

In addition, paying by scanning code can also improve the security of payment. Code-sweeping payment usually uses third-party payment platforms such as Alipay or WeChat Pay, which are equipped with high security and protection measures that can effectively protect users' payment information.
