How to use your Linkcards with QR codes

In the digital age, where time and attention are at a premium, QR codes have become an effective bridge between the physical and digital worlds.

Their practicality, immediacy, and low cost make them key allies for any brand, business, or independent professional who wants to facilitate access to their content, improve their customers’ experience, and boost their results.

Now, when you combine this technology with Linkcards, the synergy is complete: you can direct people to a business card, an active promotion, a contact form, a digital catalog, or any specific content… all with a single scan!

Why add a QR code to your Linkcard?

The QR code acts as a direct gateway to your digital universe. While the Linkcard organizes your content in one place, the QR code becomes a quick access point from any physical medium.

Main advantages:

  • No need to type in web addresses (or even have you saved in your contacts).
  • Can be printed and placed in multiple spaces: brochures, posters, tables, packaging, shop windows, etc.
  • Works 24/7: once printed, it will always be active and redirecting.

And best of all: if you update your Linkcard, the QR code continues to work. No need to reprint it.

Case 1: Digital business card with QR code

One of the most widespread uses of QR codes is in digital business cards. This type of Linkcard allows you to centralize all your information in a single link: name, job title, social media, WhatsApp or email contact, meeting schedule, and more.

How do you use a QR code?

  • You can have it on your cell phone, ready to show when you meet someone at a meeting or event.
  • You can also print it on a physical card to be scanned at trade shows, conferences, or networking events.
  • You can even include it in your resume or email signature.

Fact: Digital cards increase the contact save rate by an average of 40% compared to traditional cards.

Case 2: Physical promotions or digital letters (Micro Landing)

Restaurants, physical stores, or businesses that serve the public can create themed micro landing pages for each promotion, event, or new product, and share them via a printed QR code.

Example in cafés:

  • A micro landing page with the updated menu.
  • Buttons for “Order via WhatsApp,” “See combos,” or “Leave your review.”
  • A small photo gallery to show the atmosphere or products.

Where to place the QR code?

  • On the counter, tables, or display cases.
  • On stickers to put on packaging, bags, or takeaway cups.
  • On printed promotional flyers.

Case 3: Advertising on public roads or packaging

If you have a product or service to promote, you can generate a Linkcard specially designed for physical marketing campaigns and share it via a QR code in different spaces.

Ideas for using QR codes in this context:

  • Street posters with the message “Scan and discover our new collection.”
  • Stickers in partner stores or high-traffic areas.
  • On product boxes or labels to complement the customer experience with a tutorial, form, or catalog.

Recommendation: use eye-catching designs that include a clear call to action (“Scan for a discount,” for example).

Best practices when using QR codes with Linkcards

  • Test it before printing: make sure the QR code works correctly on various devices.
  • Keep your Linkcard up to date: the QR code is constant, but the content can change.
  • Add design to the QR code: you can customize it with your logo or colors without affecting its functionality.
  • Don’t hide it: place the QR code in visible and easily accessible locations (avoid folded areas or corners).
  • Accompany it with a CTA: not everyone knows what to do with a QR code. Tell them: “Scan to view the menu” or “Schedule your appointment here.”


Conclusion: when the physical world meets the digital world

Using your Linkcards with QR codes allows you to better connect with your audience, simplify processes, and scale results. From an informal meeting to a massive street campaign, there is always a creative way to add this tool.
