Best Practices & Tips

Test before printing: Always scan your QR code on multiple devices to ensure it works properly before mass printing. Size matters: For print materials, QR codes should be at least 2×2 cm (0.8×0.8 inches) to scan reliably. Larger is better for distance scanning. Error correction: Use higher error correction levels (H or Q) if your QR code might get damaged, dirty, or partially obscured. Lower levels create simpler codes that are easier to scan. Contrast is critical: Maintain strong contrast between foreground and background colors. Black on white is most reliable. Avoid light colors or low contrast combinations. Add context: Place text near your QR code explaining what it links to (e.g., "Scan to visit our website" or "Scan for WiFi access"). URL shortening: For long URLs, consider using a URL shortener first to create simpler QR codes with fewer modules. Don't distort: Keep QR codes square. Stretching or skewing them can make them unscannable.
