URL QR Codes — Still the Most Common Type
Most QR codes simply open a web page. That sounds basic, but it is still the fastest way to move someone from a poster, label, or ticket to your site without typing a long address on a phone. A URL QR code turns that web address into a scannable link that can be opened instantly.
What happens when someone scans
The generator converts your URL into a square QR code pattern phones recognise worldwide.
Static links vs editable redirects
Static codes bake the URL in permanently. If you change the destination page later, you need to create a new QR code for the updated link. Dynamic codes store a short link you can repoint from your account.
Sizing, contrast, and testing
Aim for at least 2 cm square on white or light backgrounds. Dark modules on light paper scan best. Logos in the centre are fine with error correction enabled. Test with two phones and two apps before approving print.
Tracking campaigns with UTM tags
Add utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign to your URL before generating the code. Analytics tools then credit visits to the QR channel. Helpful when the same poster design runs in multiple cities and you want separate reporting.
Menus, shelf tags, and event check-in
Restaurants kept QR menus because updates are cheap. Stores link shelf tags to reviews and specs. Events use codes for registration or live polls. The shared benefit is skipping the mobile keyboard entirely.
