Using Dynamic QR Codes for Your Restaurant

Running a restaurant means menus and specials can change often, and getting customer feedback is always important. Dynamic QR codes offer a simple, money-saving way to keep your diners informed and make it easy for them to share their thoughts.

Key Benefits & Use Cases for Restaurants:

1. Menus That Are Always Up-to-Date

Feature: Dynamic Links

Printing new menus all the time for daily specials, seasonal items, or price changes costs a lot and is wasteful. It's also a pain if an item runs out mid-service.

  • Benefit: Put a dynamic QR code on your tables or a sign for your menu. If you have new daily specials, run out of an item (86'd), change prices, or need to update allergy information, just update the info linked to the QR code in our system. Instantly, that same QR code shows the new details. This means customers always see what's actually available, and you save on printing. Crucially, you can also update critical information like allergy warnings instantly, helping you meet food safety requirements and protect your diners.

2. A Feedback Channel That Lasts

Feature: Dynamic Links

You want customer feedback, but what if you change how you collect it? Maybe you switch from one online survey tool to another, or update your feedback form. Reprinting QR codes on all your tables or comment cards every time is a hassle and an extra cost.

  • Benefit: With a dynamic QR code, you set it up once for feedback. If you later decide to use a new online form or a different survey provider, you simply update the web address linked to that same QR code in our system. Your customers can keep scanning the existing QR codes in your restaurant, and they'll always be taken to your current feedback form. No reprinting needed, just a simple update online.
