Poll QR Code Generator
One question, instant votes.
A poll QR code opens a single question with a handful of options: vote in one tap, no typing, no account. Turn the results on and the voter sees the live tally the moment they submit. Print it on a table, a badge, or a slide, and every scan lands on the same live vote.

Practical Guide
Understanding Poll QR Code in Practice
A poll QR code is the simplest thing ScanOrbit can put on a table or a slide: one question, a short list of options, and a tap to vote. There's no typing, no account, and no page to read past the question itself, which is exactly why it works for a passing audience, a crowd walking past a booth, or a room that has thirty seconds between agenda items. Turn on live results and the voter sees the running tally the instant they submit, which is what makes a poll feel like a shared moment rather than a form nobody sees the outcome of.
A poll only works if voting costs less effort than not voting, which is the whole design brief: one question, a handful of options, one tap. The moment it asks for a name or an email first, most of the room that would have voted in passing decides it isn't worth stopping for: that's what a Lead Capture Form or a Survey is for, deliberately asking for more than a poll ever should.
Live results are optional for a reason. A one-off decision (which flavor, which time slot) benefits from the room seeing the tally update in real time; a poll running as an ongoing pulse-check on packaging or a menu item usually doesn't need the running score shown back, since the point there is your own dashboard, not a leaderboard for the voter.
“A poll works because voting costs less than deciding not to. The instant it asks for anything more than a tap, most of the room that would have voted stops.”
Static vs. Dynamic Poll QR Code
Understand the operational differences before printing thousands of physical copies.
Static Poll QR Code
Permanent Raw Data- Works completely offline with no middleman or internet server needed.
- ✕Destination cannot be modified after printing: requires full physical reprint.
- ✕Zero scan telemetry, geographic tracking, or device insights.
ScanOrbit Dynamic Poll QR Code
Recommended- Update destination URLs or payloads anytime without reprinting.
- Full real-time scan analytics: city, device, OS, time of day.
- Custom short slug, fast worldwide CDN, and zero injected ads.
Why use a Poll QR Code?
- One tap to vote, no typing and no account required
- Optional live results shown the instant someone votes
- 2 to 6 options, branded with your logo and accent color
- Dynamic: change the question without reprinting the code

How to Create Your Poll QR Code
Four simple steps from setup to physical vector print.
Write the question and options
Keep it to one question and 2 to 6 short options: the whole point is a vote that takes five seconds.
Decide what to show back
Turn on live results if you want voters to see the tally, or keep it to a plain thank-you.
Print and place
Table talkers, event badges, a slide at the front of the room, a booth counter.
Watch the tally
Votes appear on the code's Results tab as they come in: no refresh, no export needed to see where it stands.

Recommended Print Sizes for Poll QR Code
A QR code must be sized proportionally to how far away visitors will stand when scanning. Follow the international 10:1 scanning ratio (Scanning Distance ÷ 10 = Minimum QR Code Width).
| Print Placement | Scan Distance | Minimum Width |
|---|---|---|
| Business cards & ID badges | 15 – 25 cm (6 – 10 in) | 2.0 × 2.0 cm (0.8 in) |
| Table tents, menus & packaging | 30 – 50 cm (1 – 1.5 ft) | 3.5 × 3.5 cm (1.4 in) |
| Window signs, posters & flyers | 1 – 2 meters (3 – 6 ft) | 10 × 10 cm (4.0 in) |
| Banners, billboards & vehicles | 5 – 10 meters (16 – 33 ft) | 50 – 100 cm (20 – 40 in) |
