A memorial QR code for service and stone
Guests at the service share photos and watch the stream; years later, a small plaque on the stone still opens the story.
A memorial QR code opens a page about the person: photos, the life story, the service details, a livestream for those far away and the charity the family chose. For the service, print it on the order of service. For a headstone plaque, use a fixed code to a page the family controls, so it keeps working for decades.
A memory shared at the reception
A cousin scans the back of the order of service and adds a photo from Margaret's allotment to the family album.
How to set up a memorial page and code
Make the page
A short life story, a photo gallery, the service time and place, and a link to the charity. One family member owns the account.
Print it on the order of service
A 2.5 cm code on the back page with "Share a photo or a memory" lets guests add theirs during the reception.
Add the livestream, then the recording
Before the service the code opens the stream; afterwards, the recording. An editable code makes that switch without new prints.
For the stone, choose for decades
On a headstone plaque, use a fixed code to a page on a domain the family keeps. It holds the address itself and depends on no subscription.
Worked example: a celebration of life for Margaret
- The order of service
- An A5 folded card: hymns and readings inside, and on the back a code with "Remember Margaret with us: photos, stream and her garden charity".
- The day
- Forty relatives abroad watch the stream. At the reception, guests add sixty photos the family had never seen, from school trips to her allotment.
- The plaque
- A year later, a 4 cm laser-etched steel plaque on the headstone opens the same story, now on the family's own domain.
Fixed or editable for a memorial?

Fester QR-Code (statisch)
For a headstone, a fixed code is the lasting choice: it holds the page address itself, needs no account and works as long as the page is online. Free.

Bearbeitbarer QR-Code (dynamisch) Unsere Empfehlung für diesen Zweck
For the service, an editable code switches from livestream to recording to photo gallery as the weeks pass. A pass covers it, paid once and never renewed by itself: $12 for 3 months.
Care for codes that must last
Material for outdoors
Laser-etched stainless steel or a fired ceramic plaque lasts outdoors for years. Printed stickers fade in a season.
Ask the cemetery first
Many cemeteries have rules about what may be fixed to a stone. Ask the office or the stonemason before ordering a plaque.
Keep the page reachable
Renew the family domain and give a second family member access, so the page outlives any single account or person.
Fragen und Antworten
Bevor Sie drucken
- Ist das kostenlos?
- Feste Codes sind kostenlos: Erstellen Sie so viele Sie möchten, laden Sie ein PNG ohne Anmeldung herunter und erhalten Sie jedes weitere Format und Druckdateien mit einem kostenlosen Konto. Bearbeitbare Codes gibt es mit einem Tarif, einem Pass, Keep-alive oder der 14-tägigen Testphase.
- Kann ich den Link nach dem Druck ändern?
- Ja, mit einem bearbeitbaren Code. Er enthält einen Kurzlink, den Sie steuern: Sie können den gedruckten Code jederzeit auf ein neues Ziel richten, und der nächste Scan öffnet die neue Seite. Ein fester Code behält den Link, mit dem er erstellt wurde.
- Kann ich meine eigene Domain nutzen?
- Ja. Eine eigene Domain ist in Pässen, ab Starter und während der Testphase enthalten. Starter umfasst eine Subdomain, zum Beispiel go.ihremarke.de, Hauptdomains gibt es ab Pro.
- Was passiert, wenn ich nicht mehr zahle?
- Bearbeitbare Codes funktionieren bis zum Ende des bezahlten Zeitraums, und nach einer fehlgeschlagenen Zahlung funktionieren alle Codes noch 14 Tage weiter. Schalten Sie Codes innerhalb von 12 Monaten wieder ein. Feste Codes funktionieren, solange ihre Links funktionieren.
What should a memorial QR code open?
A page with the life story, photos, the service details and, if the family wishes, the charity link. Keep it simple enough for any guest to use.
Will a QR code on a headstone still work in twenty years?
The code itself lasts as long as the plaque. Whether it opens anything depends on the page, so link a fixed code to a page on a domain the family renews.
Can guests add their own photos?
Yes, if the page or the shared album allows uploads. Turn adding off once the family has collected what they want, and keep the album private to the link.
How big should the code be on a plaque?
About 4 cm, so visitors can scan from a step away. Etch it dark on a light background, or light on a dark stone with a test scan first.
Can the code show the livestream and then the recording?
With an editable code, yes. Point it at the stream for the service and at the recording afterwards; the printed cards stay the same.
Can donations in memory go through the code?
Link the charity's own donation page from the memorial page, so gifts reach the charity directly and the family sees the total there.
A story that stays close
Paste the memorial page and print the code on the order of service.
