Let’s make QR codes smarter. We need a feature in GoHighLevel that allows geo-fencing for QR codes—meaning when I generate a QR code for a business (restaurant, bar, gym, whatever), I can set a specific radius (like 0.25 miles) where the scan is considered valid.
Why this matters:
Right now, someone can take a pic of a QR code and scan it from anywhere. That completely breaks the idea of location-based offers, rewards, or redemptions. With geo-fencing, if someone tries to scan the code outside the radius, we can redirect them back to a generic offer, or even better—show them where the business is and say, "Come closer to unlock this reward."
Use Case Examples:
A restaurant wants people to earn loyalty points or redeem a free appetizer only if they’re physically there.
A coffee shop runs a “scan to enter” giveaway, but only while customers are within proximity.
A club promotes a VIP-only QR code at the entrance—geo-fencing ensures it can’t be reused or abused from outside.
It would be a game-changer for local businesses using QR campaigns. We already use QR codes for engagement, but this would add a whole new level of security, exclusivity, and real-world interaction.
An added feature of analytics would be amazing to track demographics of the people scanning the codes!
Let’s build this.
