What is it

What is an Image Gallery QR Code?

An Image Gallery QR code allows users to scan codes to open up an image gallery. A lesser known feature of QR codes, image galleries are an extremely useful way to explain more about a product and can be the key to upselling and cross-selling.

How to use Image Gallery QR Codes

Image Gallery QR Codes are very simple to use. Paste the scan code inside the store, on the product or place it on print marketing material or use it on your website, newsletter and emails.

Retail

Additional Product Information: Having an Image Gallery QR code on the product tag allows businesses to disseminate additional information that the customer may find useful. For instance, if a product is multi-purpose, there may not be enough illustrations on the product packaging to demonstrate all its uses. In this case, having an image gallery can be quite helpful for the customer and drive more sales. In addition to this use-case, an Image Gallery QR Code can also be used to furnish the customer with illustration on how to use and care for the product properly. This also helps to keep the product packaging minimalistic which is attractive to millennials.
Product Bundling: E-commerce websites recommend products to shoppers based on what other people have bought. Using the recommendation system, Amazon’s sales went up by 29%. You can achieve this in retail stores with an Image Gallery QR Code. Allow consumers to scan the QR code to unlock what other people have bought. So, if a customer is looking at inflatable devices, they can get recommended a good air pump.
Talking Mannequins: Place QR codes on mannequins to reveal the latest trends in fashion and how a coat or dress can be styled with other products in the store. Businesses can even use customer-generated content to show potential customers to allow them to see what the product would look like even before they try it on.

Real Estate

Virtual Tours: Imagine potential buyers walking or driving by a house on sale. With an Image Gallery QR Code on the ‘For Sale’ sign, they can instantly scan the QR code to get a sneak peek at the house. Real-estate agents and buyers can both save a ton of effort and time with these virtual tours ensuring high conversion rates.
Smart Signs: Any real estate signage can be turned into a smart sign with QR codes. Say, a potential buyer wants to find out what houses are available in that particular area. With an Image Gallery QR code, realtors can list out all the available houses.

Car Dealerships

24x7 salesperson: Imagine if you could have a salesperson selling cars without skipping a beat? Now you can. Add Image gallery QR codes to individual cars or outside the dealership to indicate which cars are available as potential buyers stop by outside of business hours unassisted. With a dynamic QR code, you can easily change the images as and when needed.
