QR Code is a neat feature that's fun to use and can potentially bring lots of Subscribers to your bot.
To create new QR Code Growth Tool, head to the Growth Tools tab and click '+New Tool' button in the upper right corner:
You'll see the full list of available Growth Tools where you should click 'QR Code' icon:
You will see two tabs inside your newly created Growth Tool then - 'Opt-In message' and 'Config':
- 'Opt-In message' is the tab where you can set up the Opt-In Message for this Growth Tool - just click 'Preview' button or 'Select' to enter editing mode, set up your Opt-In Message carefully and then click 'Publish' button in the upper right corner to save changes and to make sure it gets sent to users as soon as they scan the code.
- 'Config' is the tab where the code itself gets generated as soon as you click this tab:
As you can see on the screenshot, the image size can be adjusted here (100-2000px), you can add your logo which will be displayed in the middle of the code, remove background behind the logo, change the code's background and foreground color, and you can also download the code then to your device in .png format.
QR Codes are great for sticking on fliers, ads or anywhere in the real world where you want people to try your bot. They can be scanned with QR Code scanning apps or with default Camera apps on certain smartphones to instantly link the user to your bot - no typing needed.
For example, the user sees this post on your FB Page:
Once the code is captured, a Messenger app opens and new users see the 'Get Started' button which should be clicked to become a Subscriber and receive information from your bot, starting with this Growth Tool's Opt-In Message.
Note: users who had already subscribed to your bot previously will not see the 'Get Started' message, receiving the Opt-In message right away instead.
