Turn Scanners into Subscribers
Most users don't buy on the first scan. Re-engage them with ads on Facebook, Google, TikTok, and LinkedIn after they interact with your QR code.

The Missing Link in Offline Marketing
When someone visits your website, you can track them. But what about when they scan a flyer, a billboard, or a product label? Usually, that data is lost the moment they leave.
QRLynx Retargeting Pixels bridge the gap between offline interest and online conversion. By firing tracking pixels (like Facebook Pixel or Google Tag) the instant a user scans, you can add them to your custom ad audiences.
This allows you to serve targeted follow-up ads to the exact people who showed interest in your physical product, dramatically increasing your ROI.

How to Add Retargeting Pixels
Start building your audience.

Configure QR Code

Retargeting Strategies
Turn offline traffic into online sales.
E-Commerce
User scans a product tag but doesn't buy. Show them an ad with a 10% discount code an hour later on Instagram.
Real Estate
Homebuyer scans a 'For Sale' sign. Retarget them with a video tour of the property on YouTube.
Event Promotion
People scan a festival poster. Retarget them with 'Early Bird Ticket' countdown ads.
App Installs
User scans 'Download App' but doesn't install. Target them with App Install ads on Twitter/X.
B2B Lead Gen
Prospect scans your business card at a conference. Target them with a LinkedIn case study ad.
Restaurant Menu
Diners scan the menu. Retarget them on Friday afternoon with a 'Join us for Happy Hour' ad.
Retarget everyone who scans your QR code
Fire Meta, Google, and LinkedIn pixels on every scan — no website code required — and rebuild audiences from offline scans. Available on Enterprise.
Businesses running high-volume QR campaigns often discover that offline scans don't automatically convert to online action. When you're printing 10,000 flyers and seeing 1,000 scans per week but only 5 percent add to cart or book a call, the gap becomes clear: you need to retarget qr scanners with follow-up ads. Adding a Facebook pixel to a QR code solves this instantly, letting you build warm audiences in Meta, Google, and LinkedIn. Teams managing product launches, B2B lead gen, or seasonal promotions upgrade to Enterprise specifically for this, since the ability to fire a LinkedIn retargeting pixel on every scan means your conference attendees or webinar visitors can be re-engaged with a relevant case study or offer immediately, dramatically improving your cost per acquisition.

Retargeting FAQs
Common questions about pixel tracking.
Which platforms do you support?
We support major ad platforms including Facebook (Meta) Pixel, Google Ads (GTag), LinkedIn Insight Tag, TikTok Pixel, Snapchat Pixel, and Pinterest Tag.
Is this feature included in the Free plan?
No, Retargeting Pixels are an advanced feature exclusive to our Enterprise plan due to the high value and server resources required.
Does the user need to accept cookies?
The pixel firing happens on the intermediary redirect page. We comply with standard cookie consent policies, so if you enable 'Cookie Consent' on your QR landing pages, users may need to accept.
Where do I find my Pixel ID?
This is found in your ad account settings (e.g., Facebook Business Manager > Events Manager). You simply need the ID string, not the full script code.
Can I add multiple pixels to one QR?
Yes, you can fire a Facebook Pixel and a Google Tag simultaneously from the same scan to build audiences on both platforms.
How fast does the audience update?
It depends on the ad platform, but typically Facebook and Google audiences populate within a few hours of the scan event.
Do I need to install code on my website?
No! That's the beauty of it. The pixel fires on our redirect server. You don't need to touch your destination website's code at all.
Can I track specific campaigns separately?
Yes, you can assign different Pixel IDs or standard events (like 'ViewContent' or 'Lead') to different QR codes to segment your data.
Can I add a Facebook pixel to a QR code and also a LinkedIn retargeting pixel at the same time?
Yes. Enterprise lets you fire multiple pixels simultaneously on a single scan. You can add a Facebook pixel for consumer retargeting and a LinkedIn pixel for B2B audiences from the same code, keeping your audience-building simple and multi-channel.
