Available exclusively in the Enterprise Admin Portal
Overview
Every challenge in your account now has its own unique Invite QR Code — a scannable code that takes participants directly to that challenge’s join screen with a single tap of their camera. No searching, no navigating, no friction.
Administrators can download each challenge’s QR code as a PNG image file and copy its corresponding URL for use in any internal or external promotions — posters, emails, digital signage, newsletters, social posts, and more. It’s the fastest path from awareness to enrollment for any challenge you run.
This is an Enterprise-only feature and is managed exclusively through your organization’s branded administration portal.
How to Access a Challenge’s QR Code
- Log in to your branded Enterprise Admin Portal
- Navigate to Manage Challenges from your dashboard
- Locate the challenge you want to promote
- Find the icon tray just to the left of that challenge’s listing
- Select the QR code icon from the tray
This will open the QR code panel for that specific challenge, where you will find two options:
- Download PNG — saves the QR code as an image file ready for use in print or digital materials
- Copy URL — copies the direct challenge link to your clipboard for use in emails, messaging, or digital promotions
Each challenge has its own unique code. Repeat these steps for any challenge whose QR code you need.
How It Works for Participants
The experience for participants depends on whether they already have the +Health Challenges app installed:
For existing app users: Scanning the QR code opens the app and takes them directly to the join screen for that specific challenge. No extra steps — they’re ready to enroll in seconds.
For new users without the app: Scanning the QR code delivers them to the +Health App Lobby, where they can download the app for their device and get started. Once installed, they can return to the challenge via the same QR code or the copied URL.
Ways to Use Your QR Code
QR codes are designed to go wherever your participants are. Here are some recommended uses:
Print Materials — Add the PNG to posters, flyers, table tents, badge inserts, or any physical promotional item displayed in your workplace or facility.
Email Campaigns — Embed the PNG image directly into challenge launch emails or wellness newsletters so recipients can scan right from their screen.
Digital Signage — Display the QR code on lobby screens, break room monitors, or any digital display your participants pass regularly.
Social & Internal Communications — Paste the copied URL into Slack, Teams, an intranet post, or any social channel to give participants a tappable link alongside your message.
Event Materials — Include the QR code in slide decks, printed agendas, or on-screen displays at wellness events, kickoff meetings, or company all-hands.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of QR Codes
Pair with context: Always include a brief description of the challenge near the QR code so participants know what they’re joining before they scan.
Size matters for print: When using the PNG in printed materials, ensure the code is at least 1 inch × 1 inch to guarantee reliable scanning from a typical distance.
Test before distributing: Scan the code yourself with both an iOS and Android device before distributing materials to confirm it routes correctly.
Use the URL as a backup: Whenever you share the QR code digitally, include the copied URL nearby as a tap-friendly alternative for anyone who prefers a direct link.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does each challenge have a different QR code? Yes. Every individual challenge in your account has its own unique QR code and URL. Codes are not shared or reused across challenges.
Can I use the same QR code for multiple promotions? Absolutely. Once downloaded, the PNG file and copied URL can be used across as many materials and channels as you like. The code does not expire as long as the challenge remains active in your portal.
What happens if someone scans the QR code after the challenge has ended? We recommend using QR codes only during the active enrollment or participation window of your challenge. However, after challenge scans will deliver participants to your lobby site. If you have questions about what happens post-challenge, contact our concierge team for guidance.
Can I customize the appearance of the QR code with our branding? At this time, QR codes are generated in standard format. For branded QR code options, please reach out to your account representative.
The QR code icon isn’t showing in my icon tray. What should I do? Confirm that you are viewing the correct challenge row in Manage Challenges within your Enterprise Admin Portal. If the icon tray is not visible or the QR icon is missing, please contact our concierge team and we will help right away.
