At an event, guests need different things at different moments: an RSVP beforehand, a ticket or check-in at the door, the schedule during, and a feedback form on the way out. Paste the link for each into the box above, click Generate, and download one PNG per job. Because every moment gets its own code, label them so nobody has to guess which is which.
Make my QR code ↑People only glance at a sign. A code that does one thing, with a label that says what, gets scanned. A code that opens a cluttered page gets ignored. A short page with one clear button per job works. So make separate codes and put each one where it makes sense.
Once printed, a code cannot be edited, and events change: start times shift, rooms switch, a session gets cancelled.
Link to a page you control, such as an event page on your own website, and change the words there when plans change. The printed code stays the same. Test the link while signed out, since a page that needs a login will stop guests at the door.
After the event, you can swap the page's content for a thank-you note and photos, so late scans still land somewhere useful.
Put the entrance code at about chest height on a flat sign with a plain light background and a few words such as "Scan to check in". Avoid spots where a line will block it or where stage lights create glare. Size the code at about one-tenth of the reading distance, so roughly 4 inches (10 cm) for a sign read from 3 feet away; the size guide covers bigger signs.
Not every guest will scan. Add a short web address in plain text near the code, and keep a person at the door with a printed list. Before the day, scan every code on two kinds of phone, in the room's actual lighting if you can.
It can, but guests do better with one code per job. If you want a single code, point it at an event page with clear buttons for each action. Two separate, clearly labeled codes are usually faster for people to use.
It opens a page, so it can send guests to a check-in form or ticket page, but it does not scan tickets or count arrivals itself. For a head count at the door, a printed guest list or the tool your ticket service provides still does that job.
A phone can read the printed code without a connection, but opening the linked page needs internet. Keep the page light, print the schedule on paper as a backup, and keep a printed list at the door for guests who cannot load anything.
The code does not expire, but it opens whatever the link opens. If the page is removed, scans show an error. Keep the page up for a while, or replace its content with a thank-you message.
Yes. The PNG can go in an email, a social post, or a slide. A phone cannot scan its own screen, so for posts people read on a phone, share the plain link as well.
