Redirecting QR Codes for Global Compliance
E-labels designed for the European Union are not legal in countries like the US, Australia, or Brazil.
By default, Bottlebooks issues a warning to customers scanning from those locations, but you can also choose to redirect them to a different page, such as your website or another E-label.
Setting Target Countries
Before you redirect, it is important to note that you will be asked the countries you wish to have the e-label displayed in. It should be any country to market or sell your products.
Redirect outside of the EU - global
You will then see the quick option to redirect outside of the EU.
Add the web address to where people should be redirected. Your global website is a good choice, but you can also enter a product specific link.
More Options - per country
Once you have created the E-label, you can go back to the e-label and fine tune the options setting redirects per country.
- Open the E-Label you wish to edit.
- Click on More Redirect Settings.
- You will be taken to the QR code page, where you can setup Scanning Rules for each country.
How to Add a New Rule
- Click on Add new rule.
- You can choose to link the QR code to either an External URL or another E-Label.
- Add the URL and click Continue.
- Choose the countries or regions where this rule should apply.
- Click Save.
