Restricting scans by country (geo-fencing)

Geo-fencing decides which countries a dynamic code works in. It is not available for static codes.

Set it up

1. Open My QR Codes and click Analytics on the code.
2. Under Configuration, in the Access group, click Geo-fencing.
3. Choose a Mode:
   • Worldwide: no restriction.
   • Allow-list: only the countries you add can open the code.
   • Block-list: everyone except the countries you add can open the code.
4. Add countries with Add country…. You can search by name or country code.
5. Under When a scan is blocked, choose:
   • Block page: scanners see a page saying "This QR code isn't available here".
   • Fallback URL: scanners go to another web address you enter instead.
6. Click Save rules.
