How to create a free QR code menu
No provider and no designer needed — follow these steps and your menu can be live today.
- Sign up free — create your Scanmie account in seconds, no credit card required.
- Add your dishes, photos and prices — organize them into categories (starters, mains, desserts, drinks) by typing them in or copying them from your current menu.
- Choose your languages — turn on French, English or other languages so every guest reads the menu in their own.
- Generate and print your QR code — download the QR code, print it, and place it on your tables, windows or table tents.
- Update anytime from your phone — change a price, remove a sold-out dish, or add the daily special: updates are instant and the same printed QR code keeps working.
Why a QR code menu changes everything
A digital menu does far more than replace paper. Here is what it gives you:
- Free to start — try it with no commitment and no cost.
- Multilingual — one menu, read in each guest’s language, perfect for tourist crowds.
- Photos that sell — show off your dishes to lift the average check.
- Live updates — prices, availability and new items change in seconds.
- The same printed QR code as you grow — no reprinting table tents when your menu changes or you upgrade.
- Optional table ordering — let guests order from their seat whenever you’re ready.
Free, really?
Yes. The free plan covers a real hosted digital menu: you add your dishes, categories and prices, generate your QR code, and share it with guests. Generating the QR code itself is always free, and you can edit it as many times as you like from your phone.
You only pay if you want advanced features — table ordering, multiple locations, detailed analytics, or removing the branding. Even then, the same printed QR code keeps working: no reprinting, no surprises.
