Booking QR Code for Appointments

A booking QR code opens your booking page when someone scans it, so a client can pick a time from a card, a window sticker or a van. The code only stores a link. If you later change your booking tool, a plain code keeps opening the old link. A code you can repoint keeps every printed copy working.

Which one do you need

  • A link you will keep for good: a free static code does the job.
  • Printed in batches, or you may switch booking tools: $49 once per code, no renewal.

How to make a booking QR code

  1. 1

    Get your booking page link

    Open your booking tool and copy the public link to your booking page. In Google Calendar, for example, you create an appointment schedule on a computer, then use Copy link under Booking pages.

  2. 2

    Create a code that points to it

    Make a Website URL code and paste the booking link as the destination.

  3. 3

    Download and print

    Download the code as SVG or PNG. Put it on business cards, a mirror, a shop window, a van or a receipt, and scan the proof with your own phone first.

  4. 4

    Change the destination whenever your booking tool changes

    Switch tools, move to a new calendar or open a new service. You edit the destination and every printed code keeps working.

Where a booking code earns its place

Booking tools come and go, and prices change. The thing you print stays on the wall. Keeping the code flexible means your printed material does not depend on which tool you use this year.

Salons, studios and clinics

A card at the till or a sticker on the mirror. Clients book the next visit before they leave.

Shop windows and counters

Out of hours, people scan the window and book. The sticker stays for years while your tool may not.

Vans, signs and flyers

Printed once, seen for a long time. A new booking tool should not mean a new van wrap.

Business cards and receipts

Give people a one-scan way to book again. Repoint it when you add a new service.

Check the link before you print

Open the booking link in a private browser window, signed out, and make a test booking. A booking page that only works for you, or a link that asks the visitor to sign in, will fail for clients. Then scan the printed proof with a phone and book from it.

Make it easy to scan

Print the code at least 2 x 2 cm, keep strong contrast and leave a blank margin around it. Add a few words next to it, such as "Scan to book", so people know what it does.

Booking QR code questions

Copy the public link to your booking page, create a Website URL code with that link as the destination, then download and print it. Anyone who scans it opens your booking page.
