How to add a QR code to a school flyer
A QR code on a printed school flyer is useful until the event page, signup form, or fundraiser link changes — then it becomes a broken scan. A dynamic QR code lets you update the destination without printing new flyers. No account required.
What school volunteers use changeable QR codes for
- PTA meeting signup links
- Fundraiser donation pages that change between campaigns
- Event registration forms (book fair, carnival, auction)
- A newsletter or weekly update page that gets a new URL each term
Step 1: Enter the starting URL
Go to KeepQR and paste the first URL you want the code to point to — your Google Form, a school website event page, or a fundraiser platform link. A scannable preview loads immediately.
Step 2: Save a recovery email
There is no account and no password. Your management link is how you update the destination later. If the link is lost, a recovery email is the only recovery path. Add one — the form shows a warning if you skip it.
Step 3: Pick the right tier
| Tier | Price | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 3-month access | $4.99 once | A single short-run event, semester campaign, or multi-week fundraiser |
| No-expiry | $19.99 once | An ongoing school page you expect to reuse across multiple years; stays active for as long as KeepQR operates |
One-time payment. No subscription. No auto-renew.
Step 4: Pay once and download the files
Pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a card. No card is stored after the sale. You get a print-ready PDF (with sizing guidance), PNG, and SVG. Drop the file into your flyer template in Word, Canva, Google Docs, or hand it to the school’s print vendor.
Step 5: Place the code clearly on the flyer
Recommended placement:
- Near the bottom or side of the flyer with a short label (“Scan to sign up” or “Scan to donate”)
- At least the minimum print size shown in the PDF — codes printed too small fail to scan reliably
Black-and-white codes work on any paper color common in school copy rooms.
Step 6: Update the link when the campaign changes
Open the management link to redirect the code to next term’s page, a new fundraiser, or a thank-you message after the event closes. The same physical flyers in backpacks or on bulletin boards now point to the new destination.
Who holds the management link?
Whoever creates the code gets the link. Share it with the PTA treasurer, principal’s assistant, or whoever manages the next campaign. There is no account to transfer — just the link.
