QR Calendar — an event added to the calendar in one scan

A QR code that offers the person scanning it to add an appointment or event (title, times, location, description) to their calendar.

Free · Pro · Entreprise

A QR Calendar offers the person scanning it to add an event to their calendar: information session, viewing, open day, appointment. You enter the title, the start and the end, and optionally the location and a description. When scanned, the phone receives a calendar file (.ics) and generally offers to save it to the calendar. If the date changes, you correct the event in your account: subsequent scans offer the updated version, without reprinting the material. Once added to a calendar, the event no longer depends on QR Suisse and is not updated for people who have already saved it. QR Calendar is available on all plans, including the Free plan.

Creation form for a Calendar QR code in QR Suisse: title, start, end, location and description of the event — demo account, fictitious data.
An event that the person scanning adds to their calendar (demo account).

Frequently asked questions

What happens when someone scans a QR Calendar?
The phone receives a calendar file (.ics) with the title, the times and, if you entered them, the location and description. Depending on the phone, it then offers to add the event to the calendar, or opens it in the calendar app.
Can I change the date after printing?
Yes, from your account. Subsequent scans offer the corrected event. People who had already added it keep the old version in their calendar.
What information can I enter?
A title (150 characters at most), a start and an end, which are required, then optionally a location (150 characters) and a description (300 characters).
Can I turn a QR Calendar into a web link?
Not in the dashboard: there, a QR code's type (Link, Business card or Calendar) is set at creation. Create a new QR code of the type you need and archive the old one. Via the API (Pro and Entreprise plans), replacing a QR Calendar's destination with a web address turns it into a Link.
Can I create QR Calendars via the API?
This is not documented: the API has no event fields and no dedicated endpoint for QR Calendars. Create them in the dashboard; via the API, you can then read them, read their statistics and download their image.
