Guide

How it works

  1. Choose one use case below and click through to its pre-set tool
  2. Style the code to your brand — logo, colours, pattern, all free
  3. Add it to your collection points, scan-test a printed proof, go

Giving made one-scan easy

A code linking your donation page on pews, posters and collection points turns intention into action while it is still warm — cash is vanishing, the scan replaces the tin.

Paper that collects data

Consent forms, feedback, waiting lists, quote requests — a form code on print turns any poster or handout into structured responses in a spreadsheet.

Turn walk-ins into followers

Codes for Instagram, Facebook and TikTok on mirrors, counters and packaging turn customers into followers while they wait — the follow happens in one scan, not a search.

Dates that add themselves to calendars

An event code on posters and invitations writes the date, time and venue straight into the scanner's calendar — attendance follows reminders, and reminders follow the scan.

Video where it persuades most

A YouTube code plays your demo, tour or testimonial right at the point of decision — on packaging, quotes, brochures and site boards.

Where charities print their codes

The surfaces that work hardest for a charity: collection points, posters and campaign materials. Size them with the distance ÷ 10 rule, keep the white border, and our partner FatPrint prints the lot — with an editable QR code included free in any order.

Frequently asked questions

Which QR codes work best for charities?

giving made one-scan easy, paper that collects data, turn walk-ins into followers, dates that add themselves to calendars — in that order. Each section above links the free pre-configured tool.

What should a donation code link to?

Your own giving page or platform page (JustGiving etc.) with preset amounts — the fewer taps to "donate", the higher the completion.

Do I have to pay to use these codes commercially?

No. Static codes are free forever, watermark-free, for any business use — that includes every idea on this page.

What if my links change after printing?

Use an editable code — free with any print order — and repoint it in seconds. The printed material never needs reprinting.
