Start with the result you want after the scan: open a page, start a message, share a file, hand over details or take a payment. Each type says what the phone opens and how it can be edited later.
For when the scan should land on something online: your website, a set of links or your app.
The scan opens a ready-written message. The person checks it and sends it themselves.
Information people would otherwise copy by hand: a contact, a network, a date or a note.
Menus, offers and payment requests for customers who are standing in front of you.
Static codes keep working on their own and never change. Dynamic codes can be edited after printing and come with scan statistics: total scans, estimated unique visitors, locations, devices and scan activity over time.
The choices people most often weigh up.
List of links mixes social icons with custom link buttons. Social media is buttons for social platforms only.
A PDF shows the menu exactly as designed. A Menu QR code is easier to read on a phone and lets you edit one dish or price at a time.
Pick the channel your customers use and your team answers. SMS works without mobile data; email suits longer, detailed requests.
vCard gives people a contact they can save in one tap. Text simply shows words on screen, even offline.
If the video already sits on your site, link to it. A Video QR code gives the video its own page with a title and a button.
Looking for ideas by industry or by where the code is printed? See how restaurants, gyms, event teams and offices use them, or start from packaging, posters, windows and badges.
Decide what should happen after the scan. If people should land on your website, use URL. If they should message you, use SMS, WhatsApp or Email. If you are sharing a document, photos, a video or audio, use the matching file type.
A static code stores its content in the pattern, so it can’t be changed and has no scan statistics. A dynamic code stores a short QR Rapid link, so you can edit what it opens after printing and see how often it is scanned.
No. The built-in camera on current iPhone and Android phones reads QR codes. What opens next depends on the type: a web page, Messages, a mail draft, a Wi-Fi prompt or a wallet app.
Yes. New accounts get a 7-day free trial with no credit card required. After the trial, choose a plan to keep creating, editing and tracking codes.
A URL QR code takes a minute: paste the address, design the code and download it.
