Put a redeemable offer on a receipt, table tent, or mailer. The scan should open the coupon page, voucher instructions, or loyalty join form you already host.
Quick answer
Use a coupon QR when a printed offer should open a redemption page instead of a typed code. Explain the expiry and how to redeem on that page. Do not encode a secret discount string in a public poster if you cannot rotate it.
Create and download a static QR code for free. Pro is available when you need saved codes, analytics, editable destinations, or campaign controls.
Start with the live offer URL, not a homepage. Paste it into the generator, pick a high-contrast style, and download PNG for receipts or SVG for a window cling. Print a proof and redeem it yourself before the campaign run. If the offer page asks for a store PIN, confirm that flow on a phone.
Receipt codes are scanned in a bag or car, so keep the quiet zone and avoid thermal fade covering the modules. Table tents sit closer; mailers sit farther. Size the code for the farther use if the same artwork is reused.
The print next to the code should match the offer page: dates, locations, and limits. If the poster says “this weekend only,” the destination should say the same. A mismatch trains people to ignore the next coupon.
A free static QR is enough when the redemption URL stays valid through the print life of the coupon. No account is required to create or download that file.
Use Pro when a weekly special, loyalty join page, or voucher URL may change after mailers drop. Dynamic codes keep the printed coupon scannable while you update the destination and review scan analytics.
A public poster that encodes a single-use checkout token will leak. Prefer a landing page you control. If the offer must die on Monday, either reprint or use an editable destination so Monday’s scan does not still discount.
QR workspace
Use the preset workspace below, then customize styling and download your QR code.
Yes. A static offer URL QR can be created and downloaded without an account when the redemption page is final.
Prefer a page that explains redemption. Encoding a public promo string in a poster makes it hard to retire the offer.
Use dynamic QR if the offer URL may change after print, or if you need scan analytics on a circulating promotion.
Use SVG when the shop will scale the artwork. Use PNG for receipts and office printers. Test a proof at the final size.
