Getting Your QR Code

Your restaurant QR code is available on your dashboard. Look for the "QR Code" section, which shows a preview of your QR code along with download options.

The QR code links directly to your public menu URL. When a customer scans it with their phone camera, they are taken straight to your digital menu without needing to install any app.

You can download your QR code in two formats:

• PNG — Best for printing on paper, inserting into documents, or displaying on screens. This is the format most print shops expect.
• SVG — A vector format that scales to any size without losing quality. Use this if you are working with a graphic designer or need very large prints.

Both formats include your QR code in the MenuGaze teal color scheme. On higher-tier plans, you can customize the QR code appearance with your restaurant branding.

For table-top display, we recommend printing at the following sizes:

• Table tents — 3 x 3 inches (7.5 x 7.5 cm) minimum for the QR code area
• Table stickers — 2 x 2 inches (5 x 5 cm) minimum
• Wall posters — 4 x 4 inches (10 x 10 cm) or larger
• Counter cards — 3 x 5 inches (7.5 x 12.5 cm) including text

Keep the QR code at least 2 inches wide for reliable scanning. Smaller sizes may not scan well from a comfortable distance, especially in dim lighting.

Add a short instruction near the QR code such as "Scan to view our menu" so customers know what to do. Many print shops can create professional table tents or cards for a modest cost.

Always test your QR code before distributing it. Open your phone camera app and point it at the QR code. Most modern smartphones (iPhone and Android) will show a notification to open the link. Tap it and verify that:

1. The menu loads correctly
2. All your items and photos appear
3. The restaurant name at the top is correct
4. The menu is easy to scroll and read on a phone screen

Test from a printed copy, not just your screen. Printing can sometimes affect QR code readability, especially on textured or glossy paper. If the QR code does not scan, try printing at a larger size or on matte paper.
