What is a QR Code?
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that stores information like URLs, text, phone numbers, or SMS messages. Customers can scan QR codes with their smartphone camera to instantly access your Shopify store, product pages, or special offers.

Track campaign performance
Use unique QR codes for different campaigns to measure which channels drive the most engagement and sales.

QR Code Best Practices for Shopify Stores
Size & Placement
- Minimum size: 2 x 2 cm (0.8 x 0.8 inches) for reliable scanning
- Ideal size: 3-4 cm (1.2-1.6 inches) for comfortable scanning
- Large format: Scale proportionally for posters and billboards (maintain 10:1 distance-to-size ratio)
- Eye-level placement: Position QR codes between 4-5 feet high for easy smartphone access
- Accessible locations: Avoid placing codes in hard-to-reach areas or awkward angles
Design Considerations
- High contrast: Use dark QR codes on light backgrounds for maximum scanability
- Quiet zone: Leave at least 4mm of white space around all sides
- Test thoroughly: Scan with multiple devices and lighting conditions before printing
- Avoid distortion: Never stretch, skew, or apply excessive design modifications
- Print quality: Use vector formats (SVG, PDF) for print to maintain sharpness
Link Best Practices
- Use short URLs: Shorter URLs create simpler, easier-to-scan QR codes
- Test links: Always verify destination URLs work correctly before distributing
- Mobile optimization: Ensure landing pages are mobile-friendly and load quickly
- HTTPS only: Use secure HTTPS URLs to build customer trust
- Fast loading: Optimize landing page speed—slow pages lose 53% of mobile visitors
Call-to-Action
Always include clear instructions near your QR code:
- "Scan to shop now"
- "Point your camera here to learn more"
- "Scan for exclusive discount"
- "Get 10% off—scan here"
- "Scan to see this product in action"
