Use Bulk Creation to generate multiple QR codes at once in the background while you continue working. Make changes to individual codes after the batch is created.

​
Organizing QR codes

Create Folders to group QR codes by campaign, event, or use case. Double-click a folder to open it. Folders can have sub-folders for deeper organization.
Use the vCard type to encode your contact details — name, phone, email, and website — so people can add you to their contacts with a single scan.
Create a Website URL QR code pointing to your Google Business or review page. Print it on receipts, menus, or table tents to make it effortless for customers to leave a review.
Create a Form or Survey QR code and link it to a feedback form or intake form. Print the QR code on packaging, event materials, or in-store signage to capture leads and responses offline.
Use the SVG format when creating QR codes for print materials at large sizes. SVG scales infinitely without pixelation, ensuring the QR code scans cleanly regardless of print size.
