QR Code Best Practices for Maximum Scans

Proven tips to increase scan rates and engagement with your QR codes.

1

Add a Clear Call-to-Action

Always include text like 'Scan to order' or 'Scan for 20% off' near the code.

2

Ensure High Contrast

Dark modules on a light background. Avoid light-on-dark or low-contrast color combos.

3

Maintain Quiet Zone

Keep a white border (4 modules wide) around the QR code for reliable scanning.

4

Use Dynamic Codes

Always prefer dynamic codes so you can update content and track scans.

5

Test Before Deploying

Test on multiple devices and in the actual environment before mass production.
