How it works
Polytag QR
We generate QR codes to make your labels fit for the future. With stripy barcodes on their way out, our codes can be scanned at the checkout – and support QR experiences when consumers scan using their mobile phones. Best of all, our web platform makes it easy to create custom landing pages so that, when your customers scan a Polytag QR code, they can explore your products from their screens.

Case study
Blighty Booch Kombucha
The brand behind the award-winning kombucha drink, Blighty Booch has added a new dimension to their glass bottles with Polytag’s QR codes. With one scan, health-conscious consumers can now unlock a world of information that adds flavour to their favourite drinks.
Objective
Blighty Booch sought to seamlessly integrate QR codes across its entire product range, ensuring a smooth implementation without disrupting existing labelling processes. Using the Polytag platform, Blighty Booch booted up fully branded landing pages that celebrate their mission as a family-owned kombucha business, using a natural and authentic production method.
Outcome
Polytag QR codes now lift the lid on the team, the ingredients, and the brewing process behind Blighty Booch drinks, unbottling information about the product's health benefits and getting consumers involved in exciting new promotions. By offering helpful recycling tips, Blighty Booch’s new landing pages align with the brand’s commitment to sustainability, which it shares with its customers. All the while, valuable customer insights from every scan continue to help Blighty Booch refine their marketing strategies and better cater to customer preferences.
We are thrilled to join forces with Polytag and benefit from its exciting technology. Doing so not only provides our consumers with detailed product information straight to their phones, but it also gives us an additional direct-to-consumer sales and marketing channel that we didn’t have access to before.
