What are QR Codes?

QR Codes are 2-dimensional barcodes which can store information like website addresses, allowing people with a QR code scanner on their smartphone to be taken directly to a website with more information, without having to type in a URL.

These black and white square barcodes are instantly recognisable to people who have come across them before, knowing that they will be able to scan them to find out more information. For those potential customers who haven't seen them before, it is good to provide instructions to tell them what they are and how they can use them. Our signage boards provide a link to a mobile-friendly page at www.tag.st/scan which will automatically recommend a QR Code scanner application for the smartphone they are using.

The QR Codes we provide at Tag Street will take potential customers to your own mobile friendly website and keep track of how many people have scanned the tag so you can see how effective your marketing campaign has been. Why not try our service out and create your first tag.
