Common Uses for Text QR Codes

Product Information

Embed serial numbers, manufacturing dates, or batch codes on products for easy tracking and verification.

Instructions & Warnings

Display short instructions, safety warnings, or setup guides on equipment or machinery.

Event & Ticketing

Encode unique confirmation codes or ticket numbers for event entry or validation.

Branding & customization

Custom dot styles (dots, rounded, classy, extra rounded), distinctive corner squares and corner dots are more scannable when contrast remains strong. Gradients should stay subtle and avoid low‑contrast transitions near the finder corners. Embedded logos are best placed on a white (or lightly tinted) padded rectangle to maintain recognition.

Best Practices for Creating QR Codes

  • Keep minimum contrast ratio of roughly 4.5:1 between foreground and background.
  • Maintain an uncluttered quiet zone (~4 modules) around the QR code edges.
  • Select higher error correction (Q or H) if embedding larger logos or dense gradients.
  • Avoid stretching or skewing the code when placing in layouts; scale proportionally.
  • Test on multiple mid‑range phone cameras under indoor and low‑light conditions.
  • Use SVG for print (vector sharpness) and PNG for web (smaller payload).

Text QR Code FAQ

Is there a character limit for text QR codes?

Yes, the technical limit is several thousand characters, but for scannability, it's best to keep text concise. Shorter text creates a simpler, more reliable QR code.

Can I format the text (bold, italics)?

No, Text QR codes support plain text only. Formatting like bold, italics, or line breaks may not be interpreted consistently across all QR scanner apps.

When should I use a Text QR code instead of a URL?

Use a Text QR code when you want to display information directly and offline, such as a product key, a warning message, or a simple note. Use a URL QR code to link to online content.
