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.
