Frequently Asked Questions
Find immediate answers regarding dynamic QR codes, analytics, formats, and commercial usage.
Spotify Codes use Spotify's native code format and scanning workflow, while a standard QR code links directly to an open.spotify.com URL that can be scanned by compatible smartphone camera apps without opening Spotify first.
Yes! On modern smartphones with the Spotify app installed and default link handling enabled, scanning will launch the track, album, or playlist directly in the Spotify app. If the scanner does not have Spotify installed, it opens cleanly in the mobile web player where they can listen to previews.
Yes! When you choose a Dynamic QR code on TryQRMint, you can update your destination link anytime from your dashboard (e.g., from a pre-save campaign link to the live album at midnight on release day) without reprinting physical posters or merch tags.
For apparel tags and small flyers scanned from 1 foot away, print at least 1.25 x 1.25 inches (32 x 32 mm). For concert stage backdrops and festival banners scanned from 20 to 30 feet away, scale your vector QR code to at least 24 x 24 inches. Always maintain a clear 4-module quiet zone around the edges.
