The QR Code feature in Mvix CMS allows you to generate a code that can be displayed on your digital signage. When your audience engages with your screens, they can scan the QR code, which takes them to the destination of your choice. This scannable code feature is perfect for signing customers and employees up for events, sharing discount codes, or directing them to specific websites.
The type of content you can trigger your audience to engage with includes:
- URL: website, landing page, social media page, etc.
- Phone number
- Email address
- Location
- Text
- And more!
How does the QR Code Feature Work?
Since the introduction of the smartphone, QR codes have become a popular way to direct people to a specific website by a specially designed image. However, with digital signage, you can utilize QR codes on your display without needing to take over an entire screen. They can be placed inside a zone with other content or displayed as the main piece of media on your screen. Creating a QR code takes 3 easy steps:
- Choose the content you will like the QR code to forward to your audience to
- Choose your brand settings and content app settings
- Preview then save!
What You’ll Need:
- A compatible digital signage player e.g. Mvix, BrightSign, etc.
- CMS Software with a supported feature package
