By using QR codes, you can provide a bonus experience to consumers drawn in by your brand’s packaging. This is vital because looking at a package is inherently a limited experience. A consumer browsing in a supermarket or health store may pick up and examine dozens of products over the course of a shopping trip, and so none of those brands are likely to form a lasting impression through packaging alone.
If the consumer scans a QR code on one of those packages, the experience transforms completely. An animated webpage may catch their attention. They might sign up for the company’s mailing list. A game or poignant question might capture their interest. QR codes on packaging allow your brand to design a customized experience.

Build Up Brand Loyalty
Every interaction with a consumer is a golden opportunity to build loyalty to your brand. This loyalty translates to long-term sales success. Using a QR code on your package gives thousands of new opportunities for engagement because it’s open to everyone who purchases or browses your product.
