Choose the destination before the design
Open Dashboard > QR Codes for general QR management, or use the Share section of a Specific Date/Drop in Planner. A QR code is only useful when the destination is current, mobile-friendly, and focused on one customer action.
Plan availability: QR Codes are Pro in the active matrix. Planner can create a drop QR code after products are attached. Scale and Legacy Lifetime inherit their configured access; printed materials should still be tested after domain or slug changes.
Create and test the code
- Choose a storefront, product, or date/drop destination that will remain useful for the life of the printed material.
- Set the label, destination, and available brand styling, then create the code.
- Scan it with more than one phone, including one that is not signed in to your account.
- Confirm the destination loads over mobile data, not only your office Wi-Fi, and that the first action is obvious.
- For a drop QR code, attach products before creating it and check the selected occurrence or date.
What customers see
A customer sees the redirect destination, not the QR management screen. At a market, they may be standing in bright light with one hand occupied, so the landing page should load quickly and avoid requiring a second navigation step.
Common problems
- The QR button is locked. Confirm the active Pro feature access and the current matrix.
- The drop code cannot be created. Attach at least one product to the Specific Date/Drop first.
- The printed code opens an old page. Review the saved destination and update the code or redirect before reprinting.
- Scans are low. Test size, contrast, placement, and line-of-sight before treating scan totals as a marketing verdict.
