  1. Open a new code from ConsoleQR codes › New QR code, or open a saved code and select Change.

  2. Under Style, choose the Dots and Corners.
  3. Under Colours, choose One colour, Gradient or Radial gradient, and the Background.
  4. Under Logo, choose No logo or Agoo mark, select Use our logo for the logo in your branding, or Upload a logo.
  5. Under Frame, choose a frame such as Label or Ticket, and write a Call to action like "Scan for the menu".
  6. Check the preview says it scans, then select Save code or Save changes.

Good to Know

  • Free has six dot styles, four corners and one colour. Starter adds every style, your own logo and frames. Growth adds gradients and your brand colour.
  • The Advanced QR add-on brings Growth's design options to Free and Starter.
  • Keep the code darker than its background, and the quiet zone at 4 or more. Smaller logos scan more reliably.
  • Error correction under the last tab trades size for toughness: High survives most damage, such as an outdoor sign.
  • Your work in progress is kept while you design, so a power cut or dropped connection doesn't lose it.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • The preview says it doesn't scan. Change the design: a light code on a dark background, a big logo or a narrow quiet zone are the usual causes. It can't be saved until it scans.
  • "Scans, with a caution". It reads, but some phones may struggle. Fix what it says if you can.
  • "That image couldn't be read." Upload a PNG, JPEG, WebP or SVG of up to 5 MB.
  • An option is greyed out. It comes with a higher plan, which the option names.
