How to Add a QR Code to Shopify
QR codes let Shopify merchants bridge offline and online shopping — place one on packaging to encourage reviews, on in-store signage to drive product page visits, or on marketing materials to link directly to a sale. Here's how to generate, download, and embed a QR code anywhere in your Shopify store.
Step-by-step: adding a QR code to Shopify
Common questions
Can I put a QR code on Shopify product pages?
Yes. You can insert a QR code image into a product description using Shopify's rich-text editor, or add it as part of a custom section in your theme. This is useful for linking to care instructions, video demos, or loyalty programmes.
Does Shopify have a built-in QR code generator?
Shopify does not have a native QR code generator for store pages. However, Shopify POS does generate QR codes for certain payment and product flows. For marketing, packaging, and custom pages, you'll need to generate a QR code externally and upload it as an image.
How can I use QR codes on Shopify packaging inserts?
Generate a QR code linking to a review page, a discount code page, or a 'register your purchase' form. Download the PNG at high resolution, then add it to your packaging insert design in Canva, Illustrator, or any design tool before sending to print.
Can I track how many people scan my Shopify QR code?
Yes. Use a dynamic QR code (available with Dynamic QR) which routes through a trackable short link. You'll see scan counts, locations, and device types in your Dynamic QR dashboard. You can also add UTM parameters to the destination URL to track traffic in Google Analytics.
