Steps

  1. 1Choose payload type—URL, text, or Wi-Fi—and validate length limits.
  2. 2Generate high error-correction version if stickers may scratch.
  3. 3Print test at intended size and scan from worst-case phones.
  4. 4Host landing pages HTTPS-only to avoid mixed-content warnings.

Examples

  • Restaurant QR to allergen-filtered menu PDF updated weekly.
  • Conference badge QR linking to attendee contact preferences.

What to avoid

  • Encoding login credentials directly instead of time-limited tokens.
  • Using rainbow backgrounds killing scanner contrast.
  • Forgetting UTM parameters when marketing tracks scans.
