Explore QR codes in action for Posters

With a mix of creativity and practicality, QR codes offer endless possibilities for your marketing campaigns. Here are some fictional examples of how QR codes can be used on posters to help inspire your own ideas.

Cities and Cultures

The last event by North City’s culture office for Book Day didn’t get the turnout they hoped for, even though posters were placed in stores months ahead. Many saw the posters, but few remembered the date. So for future events, they added our Event QR Code to their posters. This allowed people to scan the code, save the event to their calendar, and use the Google Maps link to find the venue easily.

Event management

The fictional company Always Together added a Link Listing QR code to its posters so people can follow them on social media and stay updated on future events. This makes it easy for users to buy tickets early, RSVP, and save event dates to their calendars. With our dynamic QR code tracking, Always Together can also see how often each poster is scanned and get details like location, date, time, device, and operating system, helping them plan their marketing more effectively.

Non profit

The Save Native Birds Foundation launched a powerful poster campaign across the city to gain more supporters. Using our dynamic URL QR code, each poster linked directly to the donation page on their website, making it easy for people to support their work in rescuing endangered birds.

Educational Institutes

SC School’s art academy, led by its students, updated its posters to better promote their courses. They created an Instagram account to share weekly posts of student artwork in visual and performing arts. Then, they added a Link List QR code to the posters, so potential students could scan it and explore the school’s social media accounts to see what they could learn by joining the academy.

Personal use

At the science fair, the fifth-year students added an explanatory poster to their bridge model projects. They used our PDF QR code to share more details—each student created a PDF with information about their model and linked it to the code. Once the poster was ready, they printed it and got set to present their work.

Frequently Asked Question

Yes, QR codes can be photocopied. Once you've created and downloaded your code, you can print or copy it as many times as you like, even in creative ways. Just make sure the copy is clear and good quality so it can be scanned properly.

There’s no exact size for QR codes on printed materials, but some basic guidelines help. The smallest recommended size for a QR code is 2 x 2 cm, so it's easy to see and scan. For small posters (around 11” x 17”), that size works well. Medium posters often use 18” x 24”, and large ones are usually 24” x 36” or more. Just make sure the QR code size fits the poster and is big enough to be seen from a distance.
