For Event Organisers

Print the QR once. Run the whole event through it.

One Linkaroo QR on a program, a badge, or a piece of signage carries an entire event lifecycle — pre-event teaser, live agenda, per-session feedback, post-event recordings, next-year ticket sales. No reprints when the schedule slips.

Built for the way events actually run

The schedule will change. The WiFi password will change. The sponsors will want numbers. The QR doesn't have to change with it.

Program & agenda

One printed program QR, a six-month lifecycle

Print the program eight weeks out with a single Linkaroo QR on the front. In the weeks before doors open, that QR shows a teaser landing page and an RSVP. The night before, it flips to the live agenda. During the event, it points at the room-by-room schedule with a session-feedback form embedded.

When the closing keynote ends, the same QR becomes a hub for slide downloads and session recordings. Three months later, you repoint it at the next year's early-bird tickets. The paper never changed. The destination changed five times.

Venue WiFi

WiFi QR on table cards, credentials handled day-of

Print WiFi QR codes onto table cards, lanyard inserts, or the back of the program two weeks before the event. You don't need the final SSID or password yet — point the QR at a placeholder and update it from the venue's green room once the network is provisioned.

If the venue rotates the password mid-event (most conference centres do), update it in the dashboard and every subsequent scan picks up the new credentials. No more sharpie-on-a-napkin moments at the registration desk.

Sponsor booths

Per-booth QR codes with location-aware scan counts

Sponsors pay for foot traffic and they want proof. Give each exhibitor a dedicated dynamic QR on their booth signage, retractable banner, and giveaway. The Linkaroo dashboard surfaces scan counts in real time during the show floor, and on Business plans you'll see the city of each scan — useful for sponsors targeting regional buyers.

Hand sponsors a one-line report at end-of-day: scans, peak hour, and unique-day breakdown. The QR also doubles as their lead-capture link, so the analytics double as a soft conversion funnel.

Badges & lanyards

Attendee badges that swap content by day

Print a QR on the back of every lanyard. On Day 1, it shows the venue map and welcome reception details. Overnight, scheduled changes flip it to Day 2's agenda. After the closing remarks, it becomes a certificate-of-attendance link tied to the attendee's session list.

Because the QR never changes physically, attendees keep their badge as a souvenir and the link keeps working. Weeks later you can repoint that same badge to a survey, a community Slack invite, or next year's call-for-papers form.

Lifecycle

One QR, from print to next year's sale

Follow a single printed program QR through a six-month event lifecycle. The paper is unchanged at every step.

  1. T-minus 8 weeks
    Step 1

    Print

    Programs, badges, signage, and table cards go to the printer. Every QR points at a placeholder "Coming soon" page that you'll never actually need to show — you just need the QR locked in before the print deadline.

  2. T-minus 1 week
    Step 2

    Pre-event

    Programs and signage now show the agenda, sponsor list, and registration confirmation. WiFi QR is provisioned with the venue's network details. RSVP traffic on the main QR is already feeding the dashboard.

  3. Doors open
    Step 3

    Live

    Scheduled changes auto-swap the badge QR from the welcome map to the running agenda. Session-feedback QRs on each room's door sign flip to the next talk as the schedule ticks over. You're watching scan analytics on a phone, not stage-managing tape.

  4. Closing keynote
    Step 4

    Wrap

    The program QR pivots to a content hub: slides, recordings, photo gallery, sponsor offers, and a post-event survey. Attendees who scan their badge on the train home land here. No "check your email" required.

  5. T-plus 3 months
    Step 5

    Long tail

    Repoint the same QR at next year's early-bird ticket page. Last year's printed programs become a quiet, always-on acquisition channel. Old badges in conference bags around the office still drive scans.

Why dynamic QRs beat static at events

Specific event-ops problems that don't exist when the destination is editable.

Static QR
Linkaroo dynamic QR
Print badges Friday, find a typo Saturday morning — reprint or live with it.
Update the destination in 30 seconds. Every scan from now on hits the corrected page.
Programs printed weeks ago show an outdated agenda when a speaker drops out.
Repoint to the live agenda the moment the schedule changes. Same printed program.
No idea which sponsor booth got the most foot traffic — sponsors leave guessing.
Per-booth scan counts in real time. Hand sponsors a number, not a vibe.
Post-event recordings require a mass email blast and a hope-they-open-it strategy.
The QR they already pocketed quietly becomes the content library.
Next year's event needs new prints, new QRs, and a new acquisition campaign.
Repoint last year's QRs to early-bird sales. Free distribution, already in attendee bags.

Analytics

Numbers your sponsors will actually read

Sponsors don't want photos of busy booths. They want scan counts by hour, peak-traffic windows, and a rough geography of who showed up. Linkaroo's analytics surface that in the dashboard during the event and export cleanly for the post-event report.

On Pro, you get 90 days of full analytics per QR. On Business, you get a year of history, geo-tracking down to the city, and team accounts so your sponsorship lead can pull reports without bothering you.

Event organiser questions

The things you'd ask before you commit a print order to one of these.

Can I change the WiFi password without reprinting badges or table cards?

Yes. Put a Linkaroo WiFi QR on every table card or badge two weeks before doors open, and update the SSID or password the morning of the event. Every scan after that hits the new credentials — no reprint, no AV-desk huddle, no taping over the old code.

Can attendees scan the same QR for both Day 1 and Day 2 content?

That's the entire point of a dynamic QR. One badge QR can show the venue map on Day 1 setup, switch to the live agenda overnight, swap to slides and resources after the closing keynote, and become a certificate-of-attendance link a week later. You schedule the swaps once in the dashboard.

How do I send out session recordings after the event without emailing 2,000 people a link?

Keep the program QR exactly as it was printed. After the event, repoint it to a private library page with recordings, slide decks, and a feedback form. Attendees who pocketed their lanyard or saved their program in their photo roll can still find everything weeks later.

Can I track which sponsor booths got the most scans?

Give each sponsor their own dynamic QR for their booth signage. The dashboard shows scan counts, scan times, and (on Business) the city each scan came from — so you can hand sponsors a hard number for their post-event report instead of a vague "it went well."

What happens to old event QRs when we run the next one?

Nothing breaks. Last year's printed programs keep working — you can leave them pointing at an archive, redirect them to next year's ticketing page, or quietly retire them. A lot of organisers turn last year's badge QRs into a "buy early-bird tickets" link the moment the new dates are announced.

Do I need a separate QR for each session, or can one QR do it all?

Both work, depending on the format. For a single-track event, one program QR following the day's lifecycle is plenty. For multi-track conferences, give each room its own QR on the door sign so per-session feedback auto-switches when one talk ends and the next begins. Scheduled changes handle the cut-over without anyone walking around with tape.

Lock the print. Keep the destination editable.

Start with three free dynamic QRs. Build one for your next event's program, badge, or signage — then update the destination as the event evolves.
