QR codes have come a long way from just linking websites. Today, they’re revolutionizing how we share memories through photos. Whether for personal moments or marketing campaigns, QR codes make photo sharing fast and accessible.

In this post, we’ll explain why QR photo sharing matters, how it works, and show you step-by-step how to use it effectively.

The benefits of QR codes

QR codes offer a convenient and user-friendly way to share event photos with guests. By generating a unique QR code for your event, you can create a dedicated photo album that guests can access instantly using their smartphones.

This eliminates the need for guests to download any additional apps or create accounts, making the photo-sharing process quick and effortless.

Making it easier for guests means they will have a fun experience sharing their own photos.

How to Use QR Codes for Photo Sharing

1. Choose Your Photo Hosting Platform To share a photo or album, you need a hosting platform. We obviously (and objectively) recommend Treffenly, but other options might include:

• Google Drive: Secure and widely accessible.
• Dropbox: Great for managing multiple albums.
• Instagram: Perfect for public photo sharing. See our guide on this topic

2. Generate the QR Code If you chose Treffenly, we generate a unique QR code for you. Otherwise, you can use a free online QR generator (e.g. qr-code-monkey or qe-code-generator). Always test the QR code before sharing.

3. Distribute the QR Code: It’s time to share🎉 You can print the QR code on event materials like flyers or thank-you cards, Post it on social media or websites for easy digital access, or share it in newsletters for marketing campaigns. If you share digitally, include a direct link for direct access.

Remind people to scan and share. Put the QR in multiple locations and remember to ask them to share. Doing so during the event increases the number of people actually using the QR and sharing their photos.
