Need a quick way to turn information into a scannable QR code? The TagsClick QR Code Generator helps you create QR codes online through a simple, easy-to-use tool.
QR codes can connect printed and physical materials with online information. A QR code can be placed on a flyer, business card, property sign, restaurant material, travel document, product packaging, or other marketing material so people can scan it with a compatible device.
Use the free QR Code Generator above to create your QR code, then continue below to learn how QR codes work, where you can use them, and how to test them before sharing or printing them.
Creating a QR code doesn’t need to be complicated. The TagsClick tool is designed to make the process straightforward.
Open the TagsClick QR Code Generator above.
Enter the information requested by the tool.
Check the information carefully before generating your code.
Generate your QR code.
Test the generated code with your smartphone before publishing, printing, or sharing it.
Always test the final QR code. A simple typo in a URL or other information could send users to the wrong destination.
QR codes provide a convenient bridge between something people see offline and information they can access digitally.
Depending on the information you encode, they can be useful for websites, businesses, restaurants, real estate, travel and marketing.
Instead of asking someone to manually type a long web address, for example, you can provide a QR code that gives them a quicker way to access the destination.
One of the most familiar applications of QR codes is directing users to online content.
A URL QR code can make a web address accessible from physical or printed material. Someone scans the code and can then access the associated destination without manually typing the complete URL.
Businesses and website owners can use website QR codes to provide access to destinations such as:
Website pages
Landing pages
Product or service information
Online resources
Contact pages
Promotional pages
Social profiles
For example, a business could put a QR code on a printed brochure that points visitors to a relevant service page.
Before distributing a website QR code, verify that the destination URL is correct and that the page works properly on mobile devices.
A business QR code can help connect physical business materials with digital information.
Businesses may place QR codes on materials such as business cards, brochures, posters, packaging, signs or printed promotional materials.
For example, a business could create a QR code that directs potential customers to:
Its website
A service page
A product page
A contact page
An appointment or booking page
A promotional landing page
An online information resource
This can reduce the need to print long URLs and gives interested customers a convenient way to move from offline material to online content.
Space on a business card is limited. Rather than filling the card with a long website address, a QR code can provide another way for recipients to reach relevant online information.
Keep the QR code large and clear enough to scan, and always test a printed sample before ordering a large quantity of business cards.
Restaurants can use QR codes to make digital information accessible from tables, counters, windows, flyers and other physical locations.
For example, a restaurant might link a QR code to:
An online menu
Its website
Opening-hours information
A reservation page
A promotional page
Location information
Customer information
A restaurant QR code can be particularly useful when the destination content changes more frequently than the physical sign or printed material around it.
However, remember that the QR code itself simply provides access to the information encoded in it. Features such as ordering, reservations or payments depend on the website or service the QR code points to.
QR codes can also be useful in property marketing.
A real estate QR code placed on a property sign, brochure or flyer can provide prospective buyers or renters with a convenient route to additional online information.
A real estate professional might use a QR code to direct people to:
A property listing
Property photographs
A virtual-tour page
Agent contact information
An enquiry page
A real estate website
Additional property details
For example, someone walking past a property could scan a QR code displayed on marketing material and access the associated listing on their phone.
The destination page should be mobile-friendly because many users scanning a property QR code will be viewing it from a smartphone.
Travel and tourism businesses frequently need to connect customers with digital information while those customers are on the move.
A travel QR code could direct users to information such as:
Destination guides
Hotel information
Attraction pages
Tour information
Booking pages
Digital maps
Visitor information
Travel business websites
Hotels, tour operators, attractions and other tourism businesses can incorporate QR codes into appropriate printed or physical materials when providing quick digital access would be useful.
For example, a tour operator could place a QR code on a brochure that points travelers to detailed information about a particular tour.
The QR code generator creates the code; services such as bookings, check-ins or payments would be handled by the destination website or another appropriate service.
QR codes can connect traditional marketing materials with digital campaigns.
A marketer might add a QR code to:
Flyers
Posters
Brochures
Print advertisements
Event materials
Product packaging
Store displays
Direct-mail materials
For example, instead of printing a long campaign URL on a poster, the business could display a QR code that directs interested users to the campaign landing page.
When using QR codes in marketing, make sure users have a reason to scan. A short instruction such as “Scan to view the offer” or “Scan to learn more” can explain what users should expect.
There are many ways to incorporate QR codes into everyday business and marketing activities.
A service business could add one to a brochure that leads to its service page. A restaurant could direct customers to an online menu. A real estate agent could connect a property flyer to the property’s online listing. A travel company could direct visitors to destination information.
The important part is not simply adding a QR code. The code should have a clear purpose and take the user somewhere useful.
Ask yourself: What should someone receive or discover after scanning this QR code?
The answer should determine the destination you use.
QR stands for Quick Response.
A QR code is a two-dimensional barcode that encodes information in a pattern that compatible devices can read. Smartphones can commonly recognize QR codes using their cameras or appropriate scanning functionality.
When a QR code contains a web address, scanning it can give the user an easy way to open that online destination.
QR codes can therefore be useful when moving users from physical materials to digital information.
A QR code represents encoded information visually.
When a compatible scanner or smartphone camera reads the pattern, it interprets the encoded information and presents the corresponding action or information to the user.
For a URL QR code, that information is the web address associated with the code.
This makes QR codes particularly convenient for situations where manually entering the same information would be inconvenient.
You may encounter the terms static QR code and dynamic QR code when researching QR codes.
A static QR code directly contains fixed information. If the encoded information needs to change, a new QR code may need to be created.
A dynamic QR code generally uses an intermediary service that can allow the destination behind the code to be changed without replacing the printed QR image.
These terms describe QR-code approaches generally and should not be interpreted as a claim that the TagsClick QR Code Generator provides dynamic QR-code management.
Use only the functionality that is actually available in the TagsClick tool above.
Generating the QR code is only part of the process. It also needs to remain readable when displayed or printed.
The QR code should be clearly distinguishable from its background. Poor visibility can make scanning more difficult.
Avoid crowding the QR code with nearby text, images or other design elements.
A QR code that becomes extremely small on a printed design may be harder for users to scan.
A QR code displayed on a computer screen, business card, poster or outdoor sign may need to be presented differently because users will scan it from different distances.
If your QR code points to a website, remember that people will commonly access it from a smartphone. Check the destination page on mobile before distributing the code.
Testing is one of the most important steps when creating a QR code.
A QR code that points to an incorrect URL or cannot be scanned easily can create a poor experience, particularly after it has already been printed on marketing material.
Before publishing your QR code:
Scan the finished QR code yourself.
Confirm that it contains or opens the intended information.
If it points to a URL, check that the page loads correctly.
Test it on more than one device when possible.
Test a printed sample if the code will be used on physical material.
Make sure the code remains clear and unobstructed in the final design.
Testing becomes particularly important before printing large quantities of brochures, menus, business cards, property flyers or other materials.
A QR code should make an interaction easier rather than create another obstacle.
Use a clear destination that matches the context in which people encounter the code. If a QR code appears on a property advertisement, for example, the destination should ideally provide useful information about that property.
It can also help to include a brief call to action next to the QR code. Instead of presenting an unexplained square, tell users what they will receive after scanning.
Examples include:
Scan to visit our website
Scan to view the menu
Scan to see property details
Scan to explore the destination
Finally, avoid publishing a QR code until you have tested both the code and its destination.
A QR code generator is a tool that converts supported information into a QR code that compatible devices can scan. For example, a QR generator can be used to create a QR code associated with a website URL.
Use the TagsClick QR Code Generator above, enter the information requested by the tool, generate the code, and test the result before using it.
If the TagsClick tool supports URL input, you can enter the desired web address and generate a QR code associated with that URL. Test the generated code to confirm that it opens the correct page.
Yes. Businesses can use QR codes to help users access websites, landing pages, product information, service information and other online resources from physical materials.
A restaurant can use a QR code to point customers toward an online menu, website, reservation page or other appropriate digital resource.
Yes. Real estate professionals can use QR codes on appropriate marketing materials to direct prospective buyers or renters to property listings, photographs, virtual-tour pages, enquiry pages or other online information.
Yes. Travel businesses can use QR codes to provide convenient access to relevant online information, such as destination guides, tour information, attraction pages or booking pages.
Yes. Always scan and test your QR code before publishing or printing it. Confirm that the encoded information is correct and, when linking to a website, that the destination loads properly.
Scanning problems can have several causes. The QR code may be displayed too small, have insufficient contrast, be damaged or distorted, or be difficult for the camera to detect. Try displaying the code clearly at a suitable size and test it with another compatible device.
No. A QR code by itself does not automatically provide an analytics dashboard. Tracking and analytics require an appropriate tracking method or service. Do not assume that QR-code generation automatically includes scan tracking.
Whether you need a QR code for a website, business, restaurant, property, travel resource or marketing material, the process starts with choosing the information you want people to access.
Use the TagsClick QR Code Generator above to create your QR code. Then test it carefully before adding it to your website, marketing campaign or printed materials.
Keep the purpose simple: make it easier for people to move from what they see to the information they need.
