Tell me more about QR codes
A QR (Quick Response) code is a type of barcode. It holds information that can be read by a QR code scanner, usually a smartphone camera or app, and can be shared online or printed.
QR codes boast many benefits. They can streamline an ordering process by sending visitors directly to menus, offer a fast and easy way to connect to WiFi, and even generate leads by sending users to a sign-up form.
