Error Correction

Choose how resilient your QR code is to damage or poor scanning conditions:

Low (7%): Smallest QR code, but less reliable if damaged
Medium (15%): Good balance – recommended for most uses
Quartile (25%): More reliable, slightly larger
High (30%): Most reliable, largest size – best for outdoor use or poor conditions

Higher error correction means the QR code can still be scanned even if up to that percentage is damaged, dirty, or obscured.
