Where to put the QR poster so people actually scan

A QR nobody can see is a paper card you hid in the back. The Stampzo join poster is only for the first scan of a QR stamp card. After that, the customer shows the card on their phone. If you put two stands fighting each other, or a second scanner on the same counter, people do not know which code is the loyalty QR poster. One stand. One code. Shop QR rewards stay obvious.

Where to put a QR code in a cafe is not a branding question. It is a wait question. Eyes go to the cup, the bill, the window they are about to walk past. That is where the stamp card standee belongs. Not above the menu they never read. Not on the floor. Not next to a second QR for UPI unless you have clearly separated “pay” and “join”.

Put it in the wait

• Pickup counter, they are already looking down at the cup.
• Window, for people who have not come in yet.
• Cafe table tent QR, if they sit before they pay.
• Bag sticker, only if you already pack-to-go every order.

The rule staff must not break

“

Never scan the shop poster to add a stamp. That code does not stamp.

If a regular already has the QR loyalty card, point at their phone, not the wall. Sending them back to the poster is how the line dies and how people think “the QR is broken”. The loyalty QR poster is a door. The phone is the card. Mixing those two jobs is the most common shop-floor mistake.

Download the QR kit from the dashboard after you set the program. One poster, one stand, optional table tent, same join code. Walkthrough on stampzo.in/qr-kit. First program free.

Do not tape a phone screenshot of the QR under glass. Print the kit. A cafe table tent QR and a window poster can share the same join code, that is still one code, two placements, not two scanners. If UPI and Stampzo both need a QR, put pay on the bill side and the loyalty QR poster on the wait side. People scan the closer square. Make the closer square the one you meant.

At night, check glare. A stamp card standee that worked at 11 a.m. can fail under a downlighter. Tilt it or move it a hand-span. Shop QR rewards are a placement job, not a redesign job. Once a week is enough. If nobody joined by Friday, the QR is in the wrong wait, move the one stand before you print a second. Where to put a QR code in a cafe is almost always “closer to the cup”, not “more codes”.

Same placement rule for salons, gyms, and restaurants

Salon reception: the QR stand goes next to the payment terminal. Gym front desk: the stand sits at check-in where members have a moment. Restaurant: one table tent per table if dine-in, one counter stand at billing for takeaway. Health and wellness centres put it at reception where clients arrive. The room changes; the rule does not: put the QR where people are already standing still.
