For my MVP's primary use-case, I want to scan a QR code by Android/iOS phone using their native camera, land on to a payment processing page, where the user can pay via credit cards, and optionally, mobile wallets. In a later iteration, I would like to split this payment to go to three different accounts. What tech. stack would you advise for this use-case in the US?

    I'd look at payment processors and what tech they support. I'd guess that it would be fairly broad, so I don't expect that you'd be pulled in any particular direction.

    Remember, after the MVP you may end up pivoting in a new direction or scrapping the project, so I'd say what ever stack your team is most comfortable doing rapid development in is best.
