    Quick question - I'm SO new to QR codes. This video was really helpful. And your Wi-Fi option for Vacation Rentals was one of the things that I was looking for. In the 2 companies that you showcased, does either let you keep your wi-fi details and update them as needed and it's in real time? Like if I had to change the password, do I need to generate a new code and put it in the rental? I was originally just trying to figure out how to do QR codes so I could put the house manual on it, so I don't have to put all that info in arrival details or print a house manual that constantly gets misplaced, trashed or needs updating. Any help you can offer would be great! And referral links as well. I'd even book a consultation with you for your time if that's an option as well. Thanks for any insight as I'm so new and don't really know what all I can do with these. Thanks & Happy New Year!

    • @Michelle.The.Creator
      @Michelle.The.Creator  7 месяцев назад +2

      If you are wanting to send it to an online document like a Google Doc that is public, that document should have a URL associated with it. You can then take that URL and plug it into your QR code maker, and that should work.

      If you are asking about the preferred program to generate the code, I like www.qrcode-monkey.com/ because it is free, and also as a designer I can download the vector EPS and easily style it on whatever document I am designing.

    • @Michelle.The.Creator
      @Michelle.The.Creator  10 месяцев назад +1

      If the print shop provided you with a digital file, you could use the same QR code, but the good news is you don't need to use the exact same one. If you want to make stickers, you can generate a new QR code with a free online tool (my fave is QR Code Monkey) and that will let you download a digital file you can use.

    • @Michelle.The.Creator
      @Michelle.The.Creator  3 месяца назад

      It depends on what you mean by transparent. If you’re not wanting the white background then,yes, you can. If you download it as an SVG, you should be able to manipulate the colors. This would also depend on what program you are designing in.

      I think I follow. The club I'm in just did this recently. They took the PayPal account URL and pasted that into a QR code generator. That way when you scanned the code you could send payment to the club's account. Is that what you are looking for? It's just a matter of finding the right URL for your PayPal account.

      I've seen this use case a lot! You just need to create a QR code for wherever the information is stored. That might be a special site that houses the information, it could be a website that you have, or even a social media profile that contains the information. All you would need to do is have the URL for wherever you want to direct people to that contains your information and then make a QR code for that URL.

      Depends on what you mean with this question. There are QR codes that you can pay for that will collect data on how often it was scanned. Additionally some QR code generator can collect the scanner's information if they opt into that service.
