More QR Code Types
Coming soon — Starter and above plans.
Stirling-QR currently supports four QR code types (URL Redirect, vCard, WiFi, Text). We are adding six more types to cover every common use case — social media profiles, app store downloads, PDFs, calendar events, restaurant menus, and more.
Social Media Profile QR
Create a QR code that opens a specific social media profile — Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, or X (Twitter). Choose the platform and enter your profile URL or handle. Great for business cards, merchandise, and event signage.
App Store Download QR
Detect whether the scanner is on iOS or Android and redirect them to the appropriate store listing automatically. Enter your iOS App Store URL and your Google Play URL — one QR code handles both. Ideal for app launch campaigns and in-store marketing.
PDF / File QR
Upload a PDF, image, or other file directly to Stirling-QR. The QR code links scanners to the file — opening it in their browser or prompting a download. No need for a separate file hosting service. Files are stored securely in Stirling-QR's cloud storage.
Event / Calendar QR
Encode an event into the QR code using the iCal format. When scanned, the phone prompts the user to add the event to their calendar (Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook). Fields include title, start/end datetime, location, description, and organiser.
Restaurant Menu QR
A styled URL Redirect with restaurant-specific metadata and a menu-optimised landing page template. Link to your PDF menu, an online ordering platform, or a Stirling-QR landing page. Works with the landing page builder for a fully hosted solution.
💡 Pro Tips
- App Store QR codes are one of the most common use cases for smart routing — see the Smart Routing article for more.
- For PDF menus, upload the file directly to Stirling-QR so you can swap it for a new menu without printing new QR codes.
