QR codes for product packaging
Packaging codes that open product pages, follow GS1 Digital Link, and can be updated for recalls, promotions or new instructions after the boxes ship.
What packaging use KuikCode for
Product information pages
Ingredients, care instructions, origin and certifications on a page that fits the phone in the shopper's hand.

GS1 Digital Link codes identify the product at the checkout and open a page when shoppers scan.
Recalls and updates
Point the printed code at a recall notice or new instructions without touching the packaging.
Different markets, one print
Send shoppers to the page for their country or language from the same printed box.

September 23, 2026Frequently asked questions
01What is a GS1 Digital Link QR code?+
It is a QR code whose link is built from your product's GTIN in a standard format, so retail systems can read the product identity from it and phones can open a product page.
02Can I update the page after the packaging is printed?+
Yes. The destination behind the code stays editable, so you can change the product page, add a recall notice or run a promotion without reprinting.
03Do I need GS1 membership?+
For GS1 Digital Link codes you need valid GTINs, which come from your local GS1 organization. Regular dynamic codes on packaging do not need GS1 membership.
04Can I create codes for many products at once?+
Yes. Bulk creation turns a CSV into a batch of codes, up to 100 rows per batch on PRO and 500 on Business.
