What is an Artsy QR Code?
An Artsy QR Code is just like a regular QR code, but with a creative twist! It works exactly the same—you can scan it with your phone to be redirected to a website, event details, registry, or location. What makes it special is that it’s designed to beautifully fit the theme of your event, whether it’s a wedding, baby shower, birthday, or any occasion close to your heart.
How large can my Artsy QR Code be printed?
The smallest size your Artsy QR Code should be printed is 1.5 x 1.5 inches, and the largest size is 7 x 7 inches. This ensures that your QR code remains sharp and easy to scan.
What’s the difference between a traditional QR code and an Artsy QR code?
Functionally, there’s no difference—both QR codes work the same way. However, an Artsy QR Code is crafted with elegance and style in mind. With rounded finders and data points, plus a matching background image, these codes blend seamlessly into your event’s theme, making them a perfect fit for weddings, baby showers, birthdays, and other celebrations.
Do you offer bulk pricing for Artsy QR Codes?
Yes, we do! Right now, we have a special deal: Buy 3 and get a 33% discount, which is essentially like buying 2 and getting 1 free. This offer is perfect if you need multiple QR codes for different events or uses. Just add 3 to your cart, and the discount will be automatically applied at checkout!
How do I know my Artsy QR Code will scan properly?
Before sending you the final file, we rigorously test all our QR codes to ensure they scan perfectly. Whether it’s printed on an invitation or displayed on a screen, your Artsy QR Code will work seamlessly.
Why doesn’t my Artsy QR Code scan consistently with Google Lens or other AI image scanners?
Artsy QR Codes are designed to be scanned with the normal camera on your phone, tablet, or iPad. AI image scanners like Google Lens may focus on the picture inside the QR code instead of the code itself, which can lead to inconsistent scans. For the best results, we recommend using your device’s regular camera or an app specifically designed to read QR codes for a smooth and reliable scan every time.
Should I test my Artsy QR Code before using it?
Absolutely! We always recommend testing your QR code after receiving it, not just with our Artsy QR Codes, but with any QR code generator you use for important events.
Make sure to test the QR code as it will appear at your event—whether printed on the same type of paper your invitations will be on, displayed on a digital screen, or any other format. It’s also best to scan the code with the phones that your guests or audience will be using, rather than relying on online QR code testers.
This ensures your QR code works perfectly in the actual environment where it will be used, giving you peace of mind that your guests will have a smooth experience.
Can I use colored paper with my Artsy QR Code?
We recommend using white or light-colored paper (such as light pink or light blue) for your Artsy QR Code. If you’re planning to use colored paper, let us know in advance, and we can send you a sample code to test for compatibility. Unfortunately, dark papers like black, navy, or metallic aren’t suitable for Artsy QR Codes at this time, as they may interfere with scanning.
Can I use my Artsy QR Code on social media?
Definitely! Artsy QR Codes are perfect for sharing on social media. Whether you want to link to a website, an event, or your business page, simply upload the image to your social media platform, and your followers can scan and connect instantly.
Can I get a sample Artsy QR Code to test before placing my order?
Absolutely! Just send us a message via Etsy, and we’ll be happy to provide you with a sample QR code to test. You can also visit our website, ArtsyQRCodes.com, where you’ll find a selection of sample codes you can download and try out. These sample codes will link back to our Etsy shop or website when scanned.
What file formats do you provide for the Artsy QR Codes?
We provide your custom Artsy QR Code in JPG and PNG formats. These ensure you have high-resolution images for both digital and print use. If you need any other file formats, just let us know!
Can my Artsy QR Code link to multiple websites or actions?
Yes! You can set up your Artsy QR Code to link to a landing page or service like Linktree, which allows users to choose from multiple links (like your website, social media, and more) when they scan the code. Let us know if you’d like help setting this up!
Can I print an Artsy QR Code using my home printer?
We recommend using a professional printer for the best results, especially for such an important occasion. However, if you choose to print at home, be sure to use your printer’s highest quality settings. Avoid using draft or economy modes, and ensure the print resolution is at least 300 DPI for crisp, clear results.
Can I provide my own picture to use as a background for an Artsy QR Code?
At this time, we don’t support custom background images for Artsy QR Codes. Some images can interfere with the code’s ability to scan properly. Rest assured, the backgrounds we offer have been carefully tested to ensure they don’t affect the functionality of the QR code. We are working on a solution that will allow custom backgrounds in the future—stay tuned!
