QR codes provide a quick and convenient way to direct people to your Fundmajor campaign or participant profile page. They are particularly useful for promoting your campaign through printed materials and at community events, making it easy for people to access your fundraising page with a simple scan of their smartphone.
QR codes work especially well on:
- Posters and flyers.
- Event banners and signage.
- Club newsletters and match programmes.
- Social media graphics.
- Presentation slides.
- Business cards and fundraising leaflets.
Rather than asking someone to type a website address into their phone, they simply scan the QR code and are taken directly to your fundraising page, making it quicker and easier to sponsor your campaign.
There are many free online QR code generators available. Simply enter the web address of your Fundmajor campaign or participant profile page to generate a QR code that can be downloaded and used on your promotional materials.
If you would prefer, the Fundmajor team can also create QR codes for your campaign. Simply get in touch and we'll be happy to provide them.
Use Your QR Code as Your Phone Lock Screen
One particularly effective idea is to use your personal fundraising QR code as your phone's lock screen or wallpaper.
While many participants share their fundraising page through WhatsApp or social media, having your QR code displayed on your phone gives you another simple way to collect sponsorship when speaking to people in person.
If someone would like to support your fundraising, simply unlock your phone and display the QR code. They can scan it using their own phone's camera and will be taken directly to your fundraising page, where they can make a sponsorship there and then.
This approach works particularly well at:
- Club training sessions.
- Matches and sporting events.
- Community gatherings.
- Fundraising events.
- Family and social occasions.
It's a simple but effective way to turn everyday conversations into fundraising opportunities.
