QR Codes Guide

Learn how to generate and use dynamic QR codes to bridge the gap between physical and digital.

What is a Dynamic QR Code?

Unlike static QR codes which encode the destination URL directly, Loxli's Dynamic QR Codes encode a short link. This means you can change where the code leads at any time, even after you've printed it on flyers or business cards.

How to Generate a QR Code

  1. Create or select a Short URL in your dashboard.
  2. Click the QR Code icon next to the link.
  3. The QR Code manager will open, showing you a live preview of your code.

Customizing Your QR Code

You can tailor your QR code to fit your needs:

  • Size: Choose from Small (150px), Medium (300px), or Large (500px) depending on your use case.
  • Colors: Set custom foreground and background colors using hex values to match your brand.

Downloading and Using Your Code

You can download your code as a PNG image. For the best scanning results, we recommend:

  • Minimum Size: Ensure the code is at least 2cm x 2cm when printed.
  • High Contrast: Keep a strong contrast between the foreground and background colors.
  • Clear Space: Leave a small "quiet zone" of empty space around the code.

Tracking Scans

Every time someone scans your QR code, it counts as a click in your link's analytics. This allows you to measure the effectiveness of your offline marketing materials in real-time.
