AffiliateWP Affiliate QR Codes Addon GPL Overview:

Affiliate QR Codes allow affiliates to save, print, or share their affiliate URL as a QR code from either the Affiliate Area or if installed, the Affiliate Portal pro-add-on.

Allow your affiliates to promote your brand with QR codes for simple referral tracking.

Quick Response codes were developed in the 1990s to track cars and car components during manufacturing. Since then, these two-dimensional printed barcodes have become a popular way to link people to websites via their mobile devices. As mobile has grown, so have QR codes. They are here to stay.

A better way to make affiliate QR codes

Use the Affiliate QR codes official free add-on to automatically generate a QR code for each of your affiliate’s referral links. Each affiliate can easily share their QR code image in emails, on the web, on print materials, or via social media. These QR codes have referral-tracking functionality built right in! This allows your affiliates to share referral links with users across mobile devices.
