Promote your member web portal and mobile app with QR codes

Provide scannable access to bookings, plan sign-ups, and mobile app

Updated this week

Use QR codes to:

  • Direct users to specific room booking calendars.

  • Promote public membership plans for instant sign-up.

  • Provide quick links to your digital Shop or Support page.

  • Distribute branded stickers that link directly to your mobile app on the App Store or Google Play.

Create QR codes

  1. Copy the URL for the necessary page

You can create QR codes for any page or specific product within your member web portal and admin dashboard.

  • Open the member web portal and copy the link from the browser to the whole page (Rooms, Desks, Offices, Events, Support).

  • If you want to share a specific room, desk, plan, shop product, etc, tap on this resource and copy a link by pressing a Share button top right.

Make sure to set the visibility to "Public" for each resource you create a QR code for, so that all users can access it by scanning the QR code.

  • To share plans, Go to Billing > Plans in the admin dashboard press the menu (...) top right > Copy link to all public plans. The link will show users a list of plans in the member web portal.

  • To download mobile app stickers, navigate to Network settings > Member mobile app and press Download stickers.

2. Convert to QR code

3. Design the QR code

  • Add a Call-to-Action (CTA): Include clear text on your design, such as "Scan to Book" or "Sign up here," to encourage users to take action.

4. Print and place the QR codes around your space

  • We recommend printing the QR codes and stickers and place them around the premises to make it easier for users to find and download your member mobile app on the App Store or Google Play or placing the stickers on each desk in the hot desk area to encourage users to access your services or download the member mobile app for convenient self-service.

How users interact with QR codes

  • Instant access: Users scan a code at your physical location and are immediately taken to the relevant booking or sign-up page without needing to search the portal.

  • Convenient downloads: By scanning desk or reception stickers, new customers can download your branded app and create an account on the spot.

  • Self-service: QR codes placed in areas like the kitchen or print room allow users to report issues or buy products via the Shop immediately.

Best practices

  • Meeting rooms: Put a QR code near the door linking to that specific room's calendar so users can check availability or book it for their next session.

    Generate the QR code to the room booking calendar on Spacebring's coworking space management platform

  • Reception: Place QR codes here to encourage users to download your mobile app and sign-up for your membership plans.

  • Kitchen & common areas: Use QR codes to link to your Support page for issue reporting or the Shop page for ordering refreshments.

  • Hot desks: Place a sticker on every desk so users can quickly download the app or book their daily seat.

FAQ

Will the member web portal or mobile app open after scanning the QR code?

If the QR code is generated from the member web portal URL copied from the browser, only a member web portal will open on any device. However, if the link from the Share button is used for the QR code, then the behavior upon scanning will depend on the device, app availability, and configuration.

  • If users have the member mobile app installed on their device, it will be opened after scanning the QR code and following the link.

  • If no member mobile app is installed, the member web portal will be opened.

  • If someone has the progressive member web portal installed on their device, it will be opened.
