Give Guests Everything They Need With One Scan in the Unit

Stick a single QR code inside your vacation rental and guests scan it for the WiFi, the house manual, check-out steps, and your local picks — no app, no printed binder nobody reads. (Independent host tool; not affiliated with Airbnb.)

An Airbnb QR code is a QR code you place inside a short-stay rental that guests scan to instantly reach everything they need — the WiFi, the house manual, check-in/check-out steps, and your local recommendations — with no app and no printed binder. (Independent host tool, not affiliated with Airbnb.)

To make one, put your guest info on a page you control (a Google Doc, a Notion page, or your own site), paste that link into the generator above, and download as PNG or SVG for a welcome card, a fridge magnet, or a sticker by the router. It scans with the native camera on iPhone (iOS 11+) and Android (10+). OwnQR is free for a static code, or $15 one-time for a dynamic code so you can rotate the WiFi password or update house rules without reprinting — no subscription.

What Hosts Link Behind It

One code, one link — point it at whatever your guests ask about most. A few favourites:

A digital house manual

Appliance how-tos, thermostat quirks, trash and recycling day, the spare-key spot. A scannable page beats a laminated sheet that goes out of date.

WiFi network and password

The single most-asked question, answered before they even unpack. Link to a simple page (or your dynamic WiFi code) so nobody squints at a sticker.

Check-in and check-out instructions

Door code, parking, where to leave keys, what time to be out, whether to start the dishwasher. Cuts the late-night “how do I get in?” texts.

A local recommendations guide

Your favourite coffee, the good taco place, the quiet beach, the closest pharmacy. Hosts who share real picks get warmer reviews.

Your review or listing page

On the way out, point the code at your listing or review prompt so happy guests leave feedback while the stay is still fresh.

Where to Place It Inside the Unit

Put the code where the question naturally comes up. Four spots that work:

Welcome card on the counter

The first thing guests see when they walk in. A small printed card by the kettle or on the kitchen island sets the tone and answers “what now?”.

Fridge magnet

Everyone opens the fridge. A magnet keeps the code visible all week, not buried in a drawer — ideal for the WiFi and house rules.

Inside the entry door

For check-out reminders: trash, thermostat, lock-up steps. They will look at the door on the way out, so meet them there.

Near the router

A tiny sticker by the modem solves the WiFi question at the exact moment guests go hunting for the network name.

Update It Without Reprinting

A static QR code bakes the link into the image, so the day your WiFi password rotates, your rules change, or you rewrite the manual, the printed card is wrong — and you reprint for every unit.

A $15 one-time dynamic code points at a link you control. Change the WiFi, swap the house rules, or update the manual for next season, and every card you have already placed keeps working — same code, new destination. No reprinting, no peeling stickers off the fridge.

  • Rotate the WiFi password between guests without touching the printed card
  • Update house rules or quiet hours once and it is live everywhere
  • Refresh your local guide each season — new openings, closures, your latest picks
  • See scan counts to know guests are actually using it

Free Static. $15 for a Lifetime Dynamic Code.

Generate a static rental QR code free forever — no account, no card. Upgrade to a lifetime dynamic code for $15 one-time (no subscription) when you want to edit the destination later or see scans. One payment covers it for good.

Short-Stay Host Questions

Is this an official Airbnb tool?
No. OwnQR is an independent QR code generator, not affiliated with or endorsed by Airbnb. It works for any short-stay or vacation rental, whichever platform you list on — the code simply links to a page you choose.
What should I actually link the code to?
Whatever guests ask about most. The common winners are a digital house manual, the WiFi details, check-in/check-out instructions, and a local recommendations guide. You can point it at a Google Doc, a Notion page, your own site, or a guidebook link — anything with a URL.
Do guests need to download an app to scan it?
No. The built-in camera on iPhone (iOS 11+) and Android (10+) reads QR codes natively. Guests just point the camera and tap the link that pops up — no extra app to install, which matters for travellers on patchy connections.
How do I change the WiFi or house manual after I have printed the card?
With a static code you would have to reprint, because the link is baked into the image. With a $15 one-time dynamic code, you edit the destination from your dashboard and every card already placed in the unit points to the new page automatically — no reprinting.
Can I use one code across several rentals?
You can, but a separate code per unit is usually better: each can link to that property’s own WiFi, parking, and manual. Dynamic codes let you keep them organised and update each one independently as details change.
Will the QR code keep working after my OwnQR payment?
Yes. The $15 is a one-time payment, not a subscription — there is no monthly fee, and the dynamic code keeps resolving for the long term. A static code never expires on its own either; it only becomes wrong if the destination behind it moves.
