Frequently asked questions
What should a podcast QR code link to?
A smart subscribe page that detects the listener's app is best. For sponsor reads, point to a dedicated landing page per sponsor.
Can I put a QR code in a video?
Yes. Keep it on screen for at least five seconds, sized to at least 15% of the frame height, on a plain background.
How do I measure podcast QR scans?
Dynamic codes count every scan and show trends by day, so you can attribute spikes to specific episodes or events.
