Music QR code for Spotify, Apple Music and podcasts
Paste a share link from Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud or your podcast, and fans hear you in one scan.
A music QR code opens a song, album, artist, playlist or podcast in the listener's own app. Pick Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud or Podcast above and paste the share link. A Spotify URI works too. Choose an editable code if the next single should replace this one on the same printed poster.
Scan the poster, hear the song
A fan scans the code on the gig poster and the track starts in their music app.

Where music codes get played
Gig posters
People waiting outside the venue scan and hear you before the doors open.
Merch and vinyl

Podcast promotion
Show cards, guest flyers and studio walls send listeners straight to the latest episode.
Shops and cafes
A code by the counter opens the playlist that is playing right now.
Print tips for music codes
Keep it high contrast
Dark modules on a light background scan best, even when the cover art is bright.
Size for the distance

A caption such as New single out now tells people why they should scan.

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.
