Frequently asked questions
What is a WiFi QR code?
A WiFi QR code stores network connection details so guests can scan and connect without typing the network name and password manually.
Where should I place a WiFi QR code?
Good placement options include front desks, waiting rooms, cafe tables, hotel rooms, guest areas, rental units, and event check-in spaces.
Does changing the WiFi password break an already-printed QR code?
Yes. The code encodes the password at the time it was created, so if the network password changes, any existing printed code will stop connecting and needs to be regenerated.
