A QR code may remain on packaging or signage long after a campaign changes. Route it through a tracked Linkify destination so printed artwork stays stable while routing remains manageable.
Start with a tracked link
Create and test the destination before generating the code. Give it a clear title and connect it to the campaign.
- Remove staging URLs.
- Confirm HTTPS and the final domain.
- Test on desktop and mobile.
Design for its physical context
Account for viewing distance, print quality, lighting, and surface. Preserve the quiet area and use strong contrast.
- Do not stretch or crop the export.
- Keep artwork outside the quiet area.
- Add a fallback URL where useful.
Test the exported artwork
Test the exact file at final print size, from several angles and distances, with both iOS and Android cameras.
Verify attribution
Scan the production code and confirm it reaches the correct destination under the intended campaign and preserves required UTM values.
Monitor after launch
Review scans by placement and date. Change the tracked destination when needed instead of replacing printed codes.
