Create a Reddit QR codeWhy use a Reddit QR
- Put a Reddit QR on packaging, posters, or business cards so people follow or open your profile without typing a handle.
- Prefer official share / profile URLs so every phone opens the app or mobile web correctly.
- Use a dynamic QR when you might change the destination campaign without reprinting.
Steps
- Copy the reddit.com link for a subreddit or post. Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/yoursubreddit
- Open the Studio and paste the link into the URL field (or choose WiFi / vCard when relevant).
- Optional: enable a dynamic QR code to edit the destination later and track scans.
- Customize colors or add your logo, then download PNG or SVG. Check print size before a large run.
Best practices
- Link the subreddit for ongoing discovery, or a sticky post for campaigns.
- Test old.reddit and app deep links aren’t required — standard URLs work.
Common mistakes
- Encoding a temporary promo URL as a static code on long-lived print
- Low-contrast brand colors that fail in outdoor light
- No caption explaining what the scan does
