Dynamic: Update the page to show that an offer ended instead of leaving a broken link.
What to put behind the code
A promotion page with dates, exclusions and clear redemption steps.
Print for the place it will live
Starting size: 2.5 × 2.5 cm. This is a starting point, not a scanning guarantee. Design for a handheld voucher or receipt.
Keep the code away from perforations and tear lines. Keep the four-module quiet zone intact and use dark modules on a light background. Read the print-size guide.
Where to place it
- Offer card
- Receipt footer
- In-store promotion panel
Mistakes to avoid
- Using the URL as an unguessable single-use token
- Hiding exclusions
- Leaving expired offers looking active
Before committing to a print run
Print a proof on the final material. Scan it with more than one phone, from the normal viewing position. Check the opened destination while signed out and confirm it leads to the intended page or action. A readable fallback address or contact detail helps visitors who cannot scan.
Questions about coupons
Can I prevent people sharing the code?
No. A printed QR is easy to copy. Enforce any redemption limits in your own checkout system.
What should I test before printing?
Scan the final coupons artwork on more than one phone. Check the destination or imported details, the real viewing distance and the final printed surface.
