QR code campaigns
A QR code campaign gives you a QR code that opens a WhatsApp chat with your number when someone scans it. The chat starts with a message you wrote. Everyone who scans and sends it shows up in the campaign's results, ready to export, tag or message.
Put it where people already have your product in hand: on the box, on a card inside the parcel, at the counter of your store.

Create a QR code campaign
- Go to Campaigns and click +Launch.
- Choose QR Campaign.
- Fill in:
- Name: a name that tells you what the campaign is for, such as "Packaging insert".
- Pre-filled Custom Message: the message that appears ready to send when someone scans.
- Click Set Live and Generate QR Code.
- Download the QR Code, or the QR Code Standee.
Design the standee
The standee is a printable template around your QR code. You can set:
| Setting | What it is |
|---|---|
| Display name | The name shown on the standee |
| Description | A short line about what you offer |
| Call-to-action subtext | What to do, such as "Scan to chat with us" |
| Footer text | A line at the bottom |
| Colour theme | The colours of the standee |
Answer the chats with a flow
Connect a chatbot flow, so everyone who scans gets an answer straight away.
- Go to Flows and create a new flow.
- Click Choose QR Campaign.
- Select the QR campaign to connect.
- Build the flow and enable it.
See Chatbot flows.
How it is measured
Go to Campaign → QR Scan → Replied to see the people who scanned and messaged you. From there you can:
- See what they did
- Export them as leads
- Send them a broadcast
- Add tags to them
When to use it
Use it wherever people hold your product or stand in your store. These are high-value leads: they have bought from you, visited you, or are looking at your product right now.
Give people a reason to scan. A QR code alone gets ignored. "Scan for care tips", "Scan to register your warranty" or "Scan for 10% off your next order" gets scanned.
Write the pre-filled message as the customer. It is what they send, so it should sound like them and say what they want: "Hi, I'd like the care guide for my order." It also tells your flow and your team why they are there.
Use one campaign per place. A campaign for the packaging, another for the store counter, another for an event. The Replied list then tells you which placement brings people in.
Tag them as they come in. From the Replied list, tag everyone from a campaign, such as packaging-scan, so you can filter and broadcast to them later. See Tags and attributes.
