How to create a customer QR Code?

We recommend using our QR Code API to create customer specific QR Codes.

What data to use to create the customer QR code?

The QR Code API generates a static QR code with a hardcoded data. You must use the following format to generate the customer QR codes using our API.

customer:<shopify-customer-id>

Eg, customer:987654321

What happens when a customer QR code is scanned in the POS app?

The POS app identifies the customer id available in the QR code and tries to add the customer to the cart. If the customer exists on your Shopify store they will get added automatically.

NOTE: Ensure the customer id is valid and the QR code data is in the correct format. Use the Super QR Codes Scanner to scan the QR code. You can read more about using the POS app extension here.
