Bulk QR Download: Export Thousands of Codes in Minutes.

Create your QR codes individually or via the API, then export the whole set together in one bulk download. Print-ready files, minutes not days.

Scale Your QR Operations Without Manual Effort

Downloading QR codes one by one is fine for 10 codes. For 10,000, it is not an option. Each SMLLR code is created individually — through the dashboard or one call at a time via the API — with its own destination URL, name, and tracking ID. Once your set exists, SMLLR's Bulk Downloader lets you export the whole group together as print-ready files in minutes, available from the Basic plan upward.

  • Create each code individually, in the dashboard or via the API
  • Organize codes by reference name or SKU as you create them
  • Export the whole set in PNG, SVG, or PDF format for print, in one action
  • Every code stays individually tracked and uniquely identified
  • Download as a ZIP file with codes named by your SKU or reference
  • Ideal for product labelling, loyalty cards, asset tracking, and print campaigns

Product Labelling at Scale

For manufacturers and brands adding QR codes to product packaging, exporting a large run in one bulk download is not a nice-to-have — it is essential. SMLLR handles exports of thousands of unique QR codes at once. Each code links to the specific product page, user manual, or regulatory disclosure for that SKU. When product information changes, update the destination URL for each SKU in your SMLLR dashboard — every physical code in the market immediately delivers the updated content.

Loyalty Programs and Membership Cards

Businesses running QR-based loyalty programs need a unique code for each member or card. Create each one individually — pointing to a different destination URL, such as a member-specific profile page or unique redemption link — then export the full set together once they're ready. This is the foundation for QR-powered loyalty programs, membership cards, access control, and any application requiring a unique code per unit.

Keeping a Large Set Organized Before You Export

The bulk download process runs smoothly when your codes are organized as you create them: a consistent reference name or SKU per code, and a shared campaign grouping them together — SMLLR's equivalent of a folder — so the exported files are easy to match back to physical products later. Destination URLs are updated per code from the dashboard or API; there isn't a spreadsheet-upload flow for changing many destinations in one action.

Reprinting a Subset Without Re-Exporting Everything

If a handful of codes in a large batch are damaged in printing or need a design fix, you don't have to re-export the entire run — pull just the affected reference IDs and re-export those specific codes, leaving the rest of the batch and its existing analytics untouched. Once a batch is live, analytics tracking becomes the natural next step for seeing which codes in the run are actually performing, and agencies running campaigns for multiple clients often pair this with client-specific report links.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I download my QR codes in bulk from SMLLR?

Create your codes individually — each with its own destination URL and reference name — then select the set in your dashboard and choose Bulk Download. You'll get a ZIP of individual, print-ready QR code files.

Is there a limit to how many QR codes I can export in one bulk download?

SMLLR supports bulk downloads of up to thousands of codes per export. For very large exports (100,000+ codes), get in touch to discuss options.

Are bulk-downloaded QR codes individually trackable?

Yes. Every QR code in a bulk download is individually tracked. Each code has its own analytics dashboard showing its unique scan history.

Can I apply my brand design across a whole set of codes?

Yes. Save your design template once, and apply it as you create each new code so the whole set shares the same colors, logo, and shape settings.

Can I update destination URLs for a whole set of codes at once?

Not from a single spreadsheet upload — each code's destination is updated individually, from the dashboard or via a single API call per code. If you're scripting updates across hundreds of codes, the API is the faster path since it avoids clicking through the dashboard one code at a time.

What file naming convention is used for the exported ZIP?

Exported files are named according to the reference name or SKU you assign to each code, making it easy to match each file to its physical product.

Can I create and manage QR codes via the API instead of the dashboard?

Yes. The API supports creating and updating codes one at a time, which is often preferred for teams that already have product or order data flowing through their own system.

Can codes in the same export use different error correction levels?

Yes. Error correction level is set per code at creation time, so a single bulk export can include codes with different levels if you set them individually.

Can I preview a code's design before including it in a bulk export?

Yes. You can preview each code's design as you create it, before it's ever included in a bulk download.
