Spring catalog, printed once

Same QR code on every copy

Prices change in June

Upload the new PDF in your dashboard

Every printed copy updates instantly

Nothing physical changes, nothing gets reprinted

## Trusted by thousands of brands and businesses for asset permanence

## Marketing collateral goes stale faster than the print run lasts.

A brochure printed for a trade show or a seasonal push often outlives the offer it was built around. Pricing shifts, a product gets discontinued, a promotion ends, and the printed stack in the storeroom becomes wrong before it's gone. A static QR code hardcoded to that one PDF ships that mistake straight to whoever scans it next. A code you can repoint means the print run and the content it points to age independently.

## Where this replaces a reprint.

### Trade show handouts

Print before the event, update the PDF after it, whether that's a follow-up offer or a corrected spec sheet.

### Seasonal campaigns

Keep the same printed brochure across a full season while the destination PDF changes with each promotion.

### Sales team leave-behinds

A rep hands out a printed one-pager; the linked PDF stays current even as pricing or features move.

### In-store and retail displays

A shelf-talker or counter card keeps its printed code while the linked lookbook or offer sheet rotates.

## One payment per code, unlimited edits after that.

$49 once. Swap the PDF as many times as your campaigns need, with unlimited scans and no recurring fee.

## Questions from marketing teams

Yes. The code on your printed brochure stays the same forever. Replace the PDF in your dashboard whenever pricing, offers, or product details change, and every brochure already in the field starts serving the new version on its next scan.

Yes. It's one of the most common uses: print a batch of handouts before the event, then update the destination file after the show without reprinting anything, whether that's a follow-up deck, a different SKU sheet, or a post-event offer.

Yes. Scan analytics are included at no extra cost: total scans, timing, and device type, so a marketing team can see whether a print run is actually getting picked up.

A single brochure code points to one PDF at a time, which you can swap whenever you like. If you need one code to automatically serve a different file per scanner language or region, that's a related but distinct setup, covered in our multi-language documentation guide.

A free static code hardcodes whatever link you give it. If that link ever needs to change (a new file, a moved hosting location, a corrected typo), the printed code breaks. This one keeps the same printed code but lets you repoint the destination anytime, for a single $49 payment with no monthly fee.

Print tip

Keep the QR code at least 0.8 x 0.8 inches (2 x 2 cm) on the printed piece and clear of the fold line. A code straddling a fold can distort just enough to fail a scan on some phones.
