How to make a QR code survey.

Three steps from an empty survey to a code on the counter.

  1. 1

    Create the survey

    Start from a template, describe it to AI or build it from scratch. Short surveys work best on a phone.

  2. 2

    Design the code

    Click Share and open QR code. Pick the colors and the dot shape, add your logo and a caption.

  3. 3

    Download or print

    Save it as PNG or SVG, or print it on an A4 sheet, a business card or a sticker.

A code that looks like your brand.

The preview shows exactly what you download. Change a color and the code redraws before your eyes.

Where a QR code survey works.

  • Cafés and restaurantsA card on the table or on the bill. Guests rate the visit while they wait. Café feedback template →
  • Shops and receiptsPrint the code on the receipt or the bag and ask about the purchase at home.
  • Events and conferencesPut it on the badge, the stand or the last slide and collect feedback before people leave the hall.
  • Classes and talksShow it on a slide: the room answers from their phones in a minute.
  • Products and packagingA sticker on the box or the device leads to a product feedback survey.
  • Offices and front desksA sheet at reception or in the elevator for visitor and employee feedback.

Tips for more scans and answers.

  • Say why to scanA caption like "Rate your order" or "2-minute survey" tells people what they get.
  • Keep it shortPeople scan while waiting or on the way out. Three to seven questions fit that minute.
  • Keep the linkThe code holds the survey link. Change the questions any time, but not the link once the code is printed.
  • One code per placeWith unique links, each table, store or event gets its own code, and you see the answers by link. Standard plan.

Questions and answers

How do I create a QR code for a survey?

Create the survey, click Share and open QR code. Choose the colors, the dot style and a logo, then download the code as PNG or SVG or print it.

Is the QR code free?

Yes. The QR code designer, the logo and printing are on every plan, Free included. The Free plan has 50 surveys and 100 responses a month.

Do people need an app to scan it?

No. The phone camera reads the code and opens the survey in the browser. People do not need an account either.

Can I change the survey after printing the code?

Yes. The code holds the survey link, so new questions and texts show up for everyone who scans it. Do not edit the link itself after printing: the printed code would lead to the old address.

Can I put my logo in the QR code?

Yes, a PNG, JPG or SVG in three sizes. With a logo, choose a high error correction level so the code still reads well.

PNG or SVG?

PNG for websites, slides and social media, up to 4096 px. SVG scales to any size without losing sharpness, so print shops prefer it.

Can I have a different code for each table or store?

Yes. Unique links on the Standard plan and higher give each place its own link and QR code, and the results show the answers by link.

How do I stop the same person from answering twice?

Turn on one response per person: SurveyNinja checks the browser cookie, the IP address or a link parameter. It works on every plan.
