QR Codes for E-commerce and DTC Brands

Online brands spend heavily to win a first order, then hand the customer a box with nothing to do next. QR codes on the box, insert, label and manual connect each physical touchpoint to a next step, and scan analytics show which of them actually earns attention.

Free plan: 3 dynamic codes, no time limit. Pro types free for 14 days, no card.

Analytics

What the scans tell you

Every scan of a dynamic code is counted, with link previews and bots filtered out, so the numbers are people.

Every touchpoint compared

Box, insert, label and manual codes side by side in one folder.

Repeat purchase signal

Reorder and coupon codes measure how much packaging drives the second order.

Your customers on a map

Scans by US state and city, from people who've actually received the product.

Into your stack

UTM tags for Google Analytics (Pro); webhooks, API and Zapier for your CRM (Business).

Reported for every code: scans over time, unique vs total, country, US state and city, iPhone vs Android, operating system, hour of day and day of week, with CSV export and a weekly email report.

Printing it so it scans

  • Give every touchpoint its own code so you can compare them; keep them in one folder per product.
  • Use dynamic codes on anything printed in volume, so a changed URL never means reprinting.
  • Add a call to action to every code and test each print before the full run.

Set it up

  1. Step 1

    List your touchpoints

    Box, insert, label, manual, and what each should get the customer to do.

  2. Step 2

    Create a code for each

    Or bulk-create from a CSV for many SKUs.

  3. Step 3

    Add UTM tags

    So store and Google Analytics attribute sales to the QR code.

  4. Step 4

    Review monthly

    Use the weekly report and analytics to keep what works and replace what doesn't.

Frequently asked questions

Does ScanOrbit integrate with Shopify?

There's no Shopify app; QR codes link to any Shopify URL, and Zapier (Business) connects scans and form responses to thousands of apps.

Can I create codes for every SKU at once?

Yes. Bulk CSV import on Pro creates many codes at once, one per row.

Can I see sales from QR scans?

ScanOrbit reports scans. Add UTM tags to the destination (Pro) and your store analytics or Google Analytics shows the resulting orders.

What does it cost?

Free for 3 dynamic codes; Pro is $9/month ($7/month billed yearly) for unlimited codes, all types and a year of analytics. Pro is free for 14 days, no card.
