A practical rollout

From printed display to a local destination

Build the route around the printed material, then change what sits behind it as the retail campaign evolves.

01

Design for the surface

Create artwork sized and styled for the shelf tag, sign, display, or printed insert.

02

Set the default page

Choose the page every scan should reach when no country-specific route applies.

03

Add local destinations

Add local product, store, or offer pages only for the countries that need them.

04

Move to the next offer

Update the live destination when the promotion changes while the printed code stays in place.

Questions

Questions about QR codes in retail

Practical answers about printed retail material, local destinations, updates, and reporting.

Where can a retail QR code be used?

Shelf tags, window signs, counter displays, posters, receipt inserts, and other printed material can all use a dynamic QR code. The best placement is where a shopper needs more information or a clear next step.

Can the offer change after the display is printed?

Yes. The destination can be updated without changing the printed QR code, provided the resolver address encoded in the code remains the same.

Can different markets open different pages?

You can set one default destination and add country-specific routes. GeoQR uses country-level network information, not precise GPS location, to choose a matching route.

What can we review after launch?

GeoQR reports server-observed resolver requests by QR code, country, date, and time. The figures describe request activity rather than unique shoppers or confirmed purchases.

Can the QR code use our own domain?

Yes. Connect and verify a customer-owned domain before the final artwork is printed. The hostname is part of the QR code and should be settled before production.
