Last updated: Β· 5 min read
Add UTM parameters to your link before generating a QR to see scans inside Google Analytics. Example:
https://yourpage.com/?utm_source=poster&utm_medium=qr&utm_campaign=winter_sale
Steps
- Build the URL with UTM tags (source, medium, campaign, content).
- Open QRBuilder β paste the full URL into URL / Link.
- Download as PNG/SVG and print.
- In GA4 β Reports β Traffic acquisition, filter by your UTM campaign.
Tips: keep links short; avoid adding UTM to internal links you wonβt track; use consistent naming (e.g., qr for medium).
