Can QR codes be used for event check-in?

Yes. If your event ticketing platform generates unique QR codes for each ticket, you can use a QR scanner at entry to verify tickets. FixTools generates QR codes linking to pages rather than unique ticket identifiers — for ticket verification you would use your ticketing platform's QR system.

How many QR codes can I generate for my event?

As many as you need. FixTools has no usage limits. Generate a unique QR code for each function, location, or session at your event.

What if the event URL changes after QR codes are printed?

Static QR codes cannot be updated after generation. If there is any risk of the URL changing, use a dynamic link shortener as the QR code target so you can update the destination URL without reprinting.

How to use this tool

💡

Enter your event website URL, ticketing page, or registration form link to generate an event QR code.

How It Works

Step-by-step guide to qr code for event:

1
Identify the event URL
Gather the URLs for each event purpose: ticketing page, schedule page, registration form, or check-in system.
2
Generate separate codes per function
Create a unique QR code for each event URL using FixTools. Label each file clearly (e.g., "registration-qr.svg", "schedule-qr.svg").
3
Test all codes before the event
Scan each QR code to confirm it opens the correct page. Test on both iOS and Android.
4
Print at appropriate sizes
Download SVGs for print. Scale to 10cm+ for entrance signage and 2.5cm for name badges or printed materials.

Real-world examples

Common situations where this approach makes a real difference:

Conference session materials

An event organiser generates a QR code for each conference breakout room linking to that session's speaker bio, presentation slides, and a live Q&A form. Attendees scan on entry for all session resources.

Festival wristband check-in

A festival uses unique QR codes on wristbands for each ticket tier. Scanners at entry verify ticket validity in real time, eliminating paper ticket fraud and reducing entry queue times.

Post-event feedback

A corporate event adds a QR code to the final slide of every presentation linking to a one-page feedback form. Response rates increase from 8% (email follow-up) to 35% (in-room QR scan).

When to use this guide

Use this when planning events — for promotional materials, entry check-in, on-site navigation signage, session schedules, or post-event feedback collection.

Pro tips

Get better results with these expert suggestions:

Use unique QR codes for each event function

Generate separate QR codes for registration, the event schedule, and feedback — each pointing to a different URL. This keeps the post-event analytics clean and gives you specific conversion data for each function.

Print large for scanning in high-traffic areas

At entry points or busy event halls, print QR codes at 10cm x 10cm or larger to enable fast, reliable scanning from a distance by attendees who may not stop to scan carefully.

Test with event management software before the event

If you are using QR codes for ticket check-in, test the entire workflow with your event management software (Eventbrite, Ticketmaster, etc.) well before the event to identify and fix any compatibility issues.
