Printing tip

Splats have rough edges, so print at 2.5 cm (1 in) or larger and avoid very thin paper that lets the reverse side show through.

Static code: it never expires, but the link can't change after printing. Need edits or scan counts? Make a dynamic code.

Questions

Will a paint-splat QR code scan?+

Yes. The splats sit on the same grid as a regular code, with dark marks on a light background, the highest error correction level and a full quiet zone. It is tested with real QR code readers.

Can I print the carnival design on tickets?+

Yes. Link it to a schedule or map page and print it on matte ticket stock. Keep the white border intact.

Is the carnival QR code free for commercial use?+

Yes. Downloads are free for personal and commercial use with no watermark and no sign-up. Static codes do not expire, but the link is fixed once printed.
