QR codes for retail

A shelf label only has room for a price. A QR code next to it can hold the size guide, the ingredients, the how-to video, or the loyalty sign-up form. Here are the codes retail stores actually use on shelves, receipts and windows, each with a free tool to make it.

Where retail stores put them

Shelf labels & edge strips

One small code per line gives a shopper the full spec without a staff member.

Swing tags & product info

Sizing, materials and care details that never fit on the tag itself.

Loyalty sign-up at the till

A code on the counter beats reading an email address out loud.

Receipts

Ask for a review or a reorder link right after a good purchase.

Window displays

Let passers-by browse the range or shop online when you're closed.

QR codes for retail FAQ

Is it free for my store?
Yes — every tool here is free, with no sign-up and no expiry. Print as many shelf labels as you need.
Can I change what a shelf code points to?
Only if it points to a page you control. Update that page and the printed code keeps working; change the link itself and you need a new code.
How small can a shelf code be?
Around 2 cm square scans reliably at arm's length. Download the SVG so it stays sharp at small sizes.
