Shopcodes

With Shopify’s Shopcode app you can generate QR Codes for your store that act like a physical buy button, or you could use them online to direct customers to a product or checkout page. The QR codes that you generate with the Shopcodes app don't change anything in your Online Store, affect your customers, or change your orders.

You can use QR codes to:

• Inform your customers about your product.
• Scan the code to checkout no matter where they are.
• Place QR codes around your physical retail store that customers can scan to get more details about your products or view additional variants.
• Add QR codes to your window display to make it buyable.
• Add QR codes to your product packaging so your customers can re-order by scanning the code.
• Add discounts to QR codes to incentivize purchases.

QR codes download as a zip file, which contains PNG files for sharing online and SVG files for sharing in print.

Use QR codes on your retail displays

Use QR codes on your marketing materials

Instead of manually typing in your website’s URL, you can take shoppers directly to the product in your Shopify store in as much time as it takes to pull out your phone and scan the code.
