How do I get started with QR codes powered by GS1 for consumer engagement?

Start simple — and build from there.

The first step is deciding how you want your QR code powered by GS1 to be used. Some brands choose to link to a single webpage, while others prefer a dynamic landing page that connects consumers to multiple sources of content.
 
  • A single webpage is ideal if you have limited digital content and want a simple way to share product information and build trust.


  • A dynamic landing page works well if you have richer content across different platforms and want one QR code to link it all together.
