Eliminating Reprints and Unlocking Real-Time Flexibility
Traditionally, QR codes are fixed at the time of printing, leading to significant costs and logistical challenges when campaign details change. Xcan It’s dynamic QR codes eliminate this issue. Marketers can now print posters, standees, and outdoor advertisements weeks in advance. Once the creative is in market, the destination behind the QR code can be assigned, updated, or completely changed via Xcan It’s user-friendly dashboard. This allows for strategic synchronization with teaser drops, trailer releases, or opening weekends, ensuring fans always access the most current content.
Built for Modern Film Marketing
Xcan It’s dynamic QR codes are designed to evolve with campaign lifecycles. Potential use cases include seamless transitions from teaser trailers to final trailers, updating ticketing information, accommodating last-minute release date changes, and directing fans to social media campaigns, AR content, or behind-the-scenes clips.
