Complex Questions

Can the QR code be damaged?
We utilize the highest error correction level (Level H) to ensure reliable scanning even if the code is partially damaged. So, no worries about a little wear and tear!
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
We require a minimum order quantity of 100 zipper pulls to ensure efficient production. However, for larger orders, we offer negotiable pricing.
Can I update the information stored in the QR code after it's printed?
No, unfortunately, the information encoded in the QR code is permanent once printed. However, here are a couple of workarounds to consider:
- Shortlink Services: Utilize a URL shortening service that allows you to track clicks and update the destination website without altering the original QR code.
- Landing Pages: Create a landing page with the core information and utilize the QR code to direct users there. This allows you to update the content on the landing page without needing to reprint the zipper pulls.
Can I integrate the QR code data with marketing automation platforms?
Potentially! If your marketing automation platform allows for custom URL tracking and data collection, you can use the scan data from your QR codes to gain valuable insights into user behavior. This might require some technical configuration on your end, but it can unlock powerful marketing opportunities.
What is the lifespan of the QR code scanning technology?
QR code technology is well-established and widely used. It's likely to remain a relevant tool for the foreseeable future. However, as technology evolves, newer and more sophisticated scanning methods might emerge. Our QR codes will still be scannable, but future advancements might offer additional functionalities.
How does your pricing structure compare to traditional zipper pulls?
The cost of our programmable zipper pulls will naturally be higher than traditional options due to the integrated technology. However, the added functionality and potential marketing benefits can provide significant value in the long run. We encourage you to contact us for a personalized quote based on your specific needs and order quantity.
How can I leverage programmable zipper pulls for data-driven marketing campaigns?
By encoding trackable URLs in your QR codes, you can gain valuable insights into user behavior.
