QR Code basics: Getting started

QR Code, short for Quick Response Code, is a 2D barcode that can store various information such as URLs, PDFs, text, contact details, etc. QR Code was first invented by the Japanese company Denso Wave in 1994. Almost three decades later, the QR Code has become commonplace in almost every business. From product packaging to billboards- QR Codes are being deployed everywhere to share information, track inventory, conduct surveys, marketing, advertising, and more. Tell me more!

Yes, static QR Codes are free due to the limited features they offer. But dynamic QR Codes involve a paid subscription as they offer features such as tracking, editability, etc. Consider your needs - if you just need a simple QR Code for a fixed piece of information, a free QR Code generator will do. But if you need advanced features and security, a paid dynamic QR Code service might be a better option.Tell me more!

After generating a QR code, the next step is to display it in places where individuals might want to use it and to do so in a way that makes it easy for them to scan it. You can print it on brochures, business cards, flyers, etc.Tell me more!

  1. Instantly connect with your audience

    Sharing dynamic information offline can be frustrating: QR Codes provide a quick and easy way to direct users to point-of-need information, be it a website, social media page, or the most relevant details, ensuring they're always connected to the most current information.

  2. Generate more reviews

    Encourage more customer reviews with strategically placed QR Codes. Add them to receipts, store windows, or online order packaging inserts. Link the QR Code to your review site, allowing customers to provide feedback and potentially increase your positive reviews easily.

  3. Unlock first-party data

    QR Codes allow you to access first-party data you might not have had access to before. QR Code tracking analytics tell you exactly how many people scanned your QR Code, from which location, on which device OS, at what time of the day and much more.

  4. Ease of use

    Scanning QR Codes is now easier than ever. Modern smartphones (Android 9+ and iOS 13+) allow scanning directly through the native camera app, eliminating the need for app downloads. This ease of use has led to a significant rise in QR Code usage, with a 26% increase in scans by US smartphone users from 2020 to 2022.

  5. Make offline materials interactive

    Traditional marketing materials like posters and flyers are static and cannot engage viewers. QR Codes bridge this gap by transforming offline materials into interactive elements. Adding a QR Code to a billboard or flyer prompts viewers to scan it, leading them to additional information or even interactive experiences like AR games.
