FAQ

Can I tell if someone scanned my code?

This can be enabled or disabled by toggling the "Show QR code scan alerts on stream" option in your General Settings.

How can viewers scan my code if they're watching the stream on their phone?

Enabling "Push product links to live chat" in your General Settings allows the link of the selected QR Code to be automatically sent in your chat. This helps mobile viewers open the link while watching on platforms like YouTube and Facebook.

What are QR Codes useful for?

💡 Utilize QR Codes to drive sales and sell products directly from your live stream.
