To be retained
- Advertise the profit: Wi-Fi, arrival, amenities and good addresses.
- Keep a white area around the code and a high contrast.
- Test the print at the actual distance before installing.
The text to be placed above the QR code
Prefer "All stay information" or "Scan for Wi-Fi, amenities and our good addresses" to a simple "QR code". The guest knows what he will get and why the scan is useful.
Add the name of the accommodation or your logo to reassure. If you display a short link under the code, the guide remains accessible when the camera does not immediately recognize the QR code.
Size, contrast and finish
Use a dark code on a clear background, without image loaded behind. Leave an empty margin around the pattern and avoid too small a size. A poster in the entrance must be tested from the normal passenger position, not just a few centimetres from the screen.
A matte finish limits the reflections. Also check that the frame, glass or plasticization does not distort the code under the lighting of the property.
Best locations
The entrance is suitable for the general guide. Near the box, the QR code naturally answers the question of Wi-Fi. A second medium can be placed in the home folder or on the desktop. Avoid wetlands, too low, hidden by a door or crowded with advertisements.
It is not necessary to display a code in each room. The same booklet remains available on the phone after the first scan.
Verification before printing
- Scan from an iPhone and Android phone.
- Test with Wi-Fi and mobile network.
- Make sure the right booklet opens.
- Check the readability of the title and the emergency link.
- Open the page without being logged into the host account.
With WelloGuest, content can evolve without changing the already printed QR code.
Frequently asked questions
What sentence to put on a QR code panel?
Indicate the concrete benefit, for example: "Scan for Wi-Fi, instructions and good addresses".
Should we print several different QR codes?
Not necessarily. Several media can lead to the same booklet, which simplifies updates.
Should the QR code be black and white?
It can be customized, but keep a sufficient contrast and systematically test the scan after printing.
