Best practices

Test before printing:

Ensure that the Spotify Code works properly by testing on an actual-sized mock up with the colors you plan to use before going to print.

Use a clear CTA:

Spotify Codes are new and unfamiliar to many people. Use a clear CTA in your creative so users know to scan using the Spotify app, such as “Scan on Spotify” or “Search and Scan”.

SIZE APPROPRIATELY:

Think about where users will be viewing Spotify Codes & how far away they’ll be when scanning. Remember that the in-app camera doesn’t zoom.

KEEP THE RECTANGLE:

Spotify Codes must have a distinct rectangle that stands out from the background they sit on top of. Without this, users may not be able to scan the Spotify Code.

WHERE TO USE CODES:

Spotify Codes work better on close-up placements like flyers or posters rather than far-away displays.
