Frequently Asked Questions

How do QR codes work?

The code stores a web address. When someone points a phone camera at it, the phone opens that address. You choose the destination, such as a product page, an offer, a registration form, or a video. Because the code sits on a printed piece, it bridges the gap between something people hold and the action you want them to take online.

How will QR codes help my business?

QR codes make your other marketing work harder. They drive traffic to your website, increase survey participation, promote a product launch or webinar, and deliver discounts to customers who are ready to buy. Pair them with analytics and you can see which printed pieces and placements are getting results.

Are QR codes difficult to use?

No. Most phone cameras read QR codes without a separate app, so customers scan and go. On your side, our marketing team sets up the code and places it in your design where people will notice it. A short line next to the code telling people what they'll get helps more of them scan.

Can a QR code include my logo?

Yes. Codes can be customized with your logo or brand graphics so they look like part of the design instead of a plain black-and-white square. A branded code draws more attention. Keep strong contrast and clear space around it so it still scans easily.
