Packaging QR codes that outlive the print run
Packaging is printed by the thousand and sits on shelves for years. A dynamic QR code lets you change what’s behind it — manual, video, recall notice, new offer — long after it shipped.

Why brands put dynamic codes on packs
Never reprint for a link change
URLs change; your packaging doesn’t have to.
Fewer returns
A setup video prevents “it doesn’t work” returns.
First-party data
Scans by country and device show where your products end up.
Your domain
On Business, codes run on qr.yourbrand.com for extra trust.
Tips before you print
- Print codes at least 2 cm wide; curved surfaces need a bit more.
- Leave a quiet zone (blank margin) around the code — packaging designs often crowd it.
- Test scans on the actual material — glossy and metallic finishes can reflect.
Frequently asked questions
Will the codes keep working for years?
Yes, as long as your Pro or Business plan is active. If it lapses, codes pause and come back when you resubscribe — nothing to reprint.
Can I make one code per batch?
Yes — bulk CSV generation (Business) creates up to 1,000 codes at once with one design.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, on Business: codes use your branded short domain.
Which file format for print?
SVG (vector) — it stays sharp at any size.
