Your QR code campaigns can now have a custom domain and a personalized URL.
This feature update will make it easy for your customers to recognize your campaigns and help you target the right segment with the personalized URLs.
Say, you have a business named McMickey. All your QR code campaigns can have this custom domain qr.mcmickey.com
Here’s how to make it work:
First, log in to the dashboard.
Here you will find ‘Master’ and other organizations.
Click on Edit next to the organization and you will see this window pop up.
STEP 1: Under the Custom domain, you can enter your domain name.
STEP 2: For this to work, you will need to add the following CNAME records:
qr.<your-custom-domain-name>.com pointing to custom.tapnscan.me
STEP 3: Email support@beaconstac.com after you configure your DNS records so that we can set up SSL certificates for your custom domain.
P.S: Setting up a custom domain in the Master organization will trigger this for other organizations as well. You can set up separate custom domains for other organizations to avoid this.
