SurveyMonkey QR Code Generator

Surveys fail on distribution, not design. A code on a receipt, a table card or an event badge puts the survey in front of people while the experience is still fresh.

Why Use This Tool

Create a QR code for your SurveyMonkey survey. Free, no signup. Print it on receipts, table cards and event material to lift response rates.

Free, Unlimited, No Signup

Generate as many QR codes as you need without an account, a trial, or a credit card. Free codes carry a small linkutm wordmark in the bottom corner; create an account to replace it with your own logo or remove it entirely.

Your Data Never Leaves the Browser

Every code is encoded and rendered locally in JavaScript. Wi-Fi passwords, contact details, and campaign URLs are never uploaded to a server or logged anywhere.

Designed, Not Just Generated

Twelve ready-made designs pairing eight module styles with shaped finder patterns, brand colours, and gradients. Export a code that looks like it belongs on your packaging, not like a default black square.

Print-Ready PNG, SVG, and PDF

Download a 1200px PNG for digital, a vector SVG that scales to a billboard without a single soft edge, or a print-ready PDF. Copy straight to the clipboard when you just need it in a deck.

How It Works

  1. 1

    Use a web link collector

    In the Collect Responses tab, create a Web Link collector and copy its URL. That is the address to encode. Email collector links are personalised to a single recipient and must never be printed — every scan would be recorded as the same person.

  2. 2

    Create one collector per placement

    SurveyMonkey reports responses per collector, so a separate collector for receipts, tables, the event stand and the follow-up email gives you a clean split with no extra tooling. Name them plainly so the report reads properly in three months.

  3. 3

    Check it on a phone

    Open the collector link on a handset before printing. Long matrix questions and wide grids are painful on a small screen, and a survey that looks fine on a laptop can be effectively unanswerable on a phone — which is the only device a scanned survey is ever taken on.

  4. 4

    Ask at the right moment

    Print the code where the experience just happened: on the receipt, on the table, on the delivery note, on the way out. A survey code on a poster in a corridor collects almost nothing, because nobody is thinking about your service while walking past it.

Why printed survey codes outperform emailed ones

An emailed survey competes with everything else in an inbox and arrives hours after the experience, when memory has flattened into a general impression. A scanned code catches the person in the moment, on a device already in their hand, with no email address required. Response rates are typically several times higher, and the answers are more specific because the detail has not faded yet.

Designing a survey people finish on a phone

Keep it under five questions and one screen where possible. Lead with the single question you actually care about, in case they abandon after it. Avoid matrix grids entirely on mobile. Put open text last and make it optional. And state the length next to the code — a stated one-minute survey gets started far more often than an unquantified one.

Response bias is worse with codes, not better

Anyone motivated enough to scan a code is unusually happy or unusually annoyed, so scanned surveys skew towards the extremes even more than surveys generally do. Read the results as a strong signal about what is going wrong and right, not as a measurement of the average customer. If you need a representative sample, you need active sampling, not a passive code on a receipt.

Free Tool vs linkutm Platform

Every code on this page is free to make and never expires. The linkutm platform adds the parts a printed code cannot do on its own — editing the destination, and counting the scans.
