QR Codes That Keep Working After You Print

QR codes are everywhere for a reason: they make the jump from real life to online easy. If you run events, serve menus, hand out flyers, or use window posters, a good QR saves time and removes guesswork.

Why use QR codes now

People already know the motion: point phone, tap, done. That makes QR perfect for moments where typing a URL is annoying or impossible.

What Lynko QR can do today

• Editable path - change the target without reprinting. Printed last week to your menu? Point it to the new menu today.
• Scan tracking - see when each scan happens.
• Language - we record the browser language to spot EN vs NL demand.
• Device - phone, tablet, or desktop.
• Browser - Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and more.
• Operating system - iOS, Android, Windows, macOS.
• Screen resolution - useful to check mobile friendliness.

Where it shines

• Events - posters, badges, slides. Track scans by day and tweak signage between sessions.
• Restaurants and cafes - menus you can update without new prints. See how many people scan your menu each day.
• Gyms and studios - class schedules and trial offers that change weekly.
• Retail - window cards for hours, stock info, or promos you can swap during a sale.
• Pop-ups and markets - one QR on the table, new target per day.
• Flyers and mailers - short campaigns with clear numbers to judge ROI.

How to set it up in Lynko

• Create a new QR in your dashboard.
• Set the target URL. You can change it later without touching the image.
• Download the QR and place it in your design or print file.
• Watch scans roll in with time, language, device, browser, OS, and screen data.

Quick print tips

• Keep at least 2 cm on small prints. Bigger is better for posters.
• High contrast: dark code on a light background.
• Leave a quiet zone around the code so cameras lock fast.

Privacy and respect

We track what helps you improve the page and the print, not who a person is. Clear behavior, sensible defaults, and easy opt-outs matter to us.
