Hosted pages

Instead of sending scanners to another website, a code can open a simple page we host for you. Pages load fast on any phone, need no app, and run no scripts or trackers.

Page types

• Contact card: your details with a Save contact button (a vCard).
• Business: opening hours, directions, call and email buttons, and links.
• Menu: sections, dishes, prices and veg / non-veg marks.
• Links: a button for each link (link-in-bio): socials, shop, Swiggy, Zomato.
• Files (Pro and up): PDFs, photos (shown as a gallery), MP3/M4A audio and MP4/WebM video. With one file you can turn on open the file straight away, so scanning opens the PDF directly. Limits: 25 MB per PDF or image, 30 MB audio, 50 MB video, 10 files per code; storage is 1 GB on Pro and Lifetime and 10 GB on Business.
• Event: date, time, place and Add to my calendar / Add to Google Calendar buttons.
• Wi-Fi: network name and password. Change the password here and the printed code stays.
• UPI payment: a Pay with any UPI app button with your UPI ID, the name payers should see, and an optional fixed amount. The page reminds payers to check your name before paying.
• Coupon: the offer, a code to use and an end date. After that date the page says the offer has ended.
• Reviews: asks "How was your visit?", sends happy customers to your Google (or Zomato) review page and lets anyone else email you privately.
• App download: iPhones go straight to the App Store and Android phones to Google Play; computers see both.
• Call / SMS / Email: one big button that calls, texts or emails you, with a prefilled message.

Every web link on a page (buttons, website, review and app store links) is checked for phishing and malware when you save, and again regularly after.

Make one

1. On My codes, under Or make one by hand, choose A page we host.
2. Pick the page type and fill it in. Add buttons for things like "Order on Swiggy" or "Instagram".
3. Choose Create code, then download and print it.

Just need a static code for a link, Wi-Fi, UPI, WhatsApp and so on? The free generator makes those with no account. See every QR code type.

Fill it from a photo

On Pro, Business and Lifetime, choose Fill from a photo and take a picture of your paper menu or business card. Vow reads it and fills the form; check everything before saving, especially prices and phone numbers. Each photo counts as 5 Vow messages.

Change it any time

Use Edit page on the code. The printed code stays the same; people see the new page on their next scan. You can also switch a page code to a plain link (and back with Undo last change).

Good to know

• Every button link and website on a page is safety-checked, now and regularly afterwards.
• Pages work with smart rules: for example, send iPhone scans to the App Store and show everyone else the page.
• Each page has a "Report this page" link, as required for content we host.
