Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureEasy drag and drop lets you create customized labels without pro design or coding skills. Add text, barcode, QR code, images, or any label element instantly to your design. Choose items directly from your products or orders to generate the correct label for them. Effortlessly generate random barcode or SKU numbers. Make labels of different sizes to attach to a range of products.
The QR code IS the product — instead of black-and-white patterns. QRKY embeds your actual product photo inside the QR code, making it instantly recognizable and worth scanning. Change the URL without reprinting — QRKY uses short-code redirects so merchants can update the destination any time — fix a broken link, swap a seasonal campaign, redirect to a sale — without touching a single label.
- Link to rich data attributes, including metafields, and international pricing.
- Use a visual design editor that requires no technical skills.
- Common barcode type. Including CODE128, UPCA, UPCE, EAN13, EAN8, GS1-128, CODE.
- Generate random numbers for barcode or SKU.
- Turn any picture into a QR code - not just a logo in the center
- Change the scan destination at any time
- Track scans in real time with location (city, state, country) information
