QR Codes on Letters With a One-Tap Next Step
A letter explains; a QR code lets the reader act on it without hunting for a website or phone number.

A printed letter often ends with an action, pay this, reply here, read more, but the reader has to type a URL or dial a number to do it. A QR code removes that step, linking straight to a payment page, form or details. Place it near the closing call to action with a short label so the reader knows exactly what scanning will do.
On letters, keep the code static, high contrast and linked to a stable destination. It will keep scanning without expiry and without scan tracking from us.
Why it works
Acts on the request
Whatever the letter asks for, a scan takes the reader straight there instead of typing a long address.
Clear next step
Placed by the closing line, the code shows the reader exactly how to respond.
Fewer dropped responses
Removing the typing step means more readers actually complete the action you wanted.
Keeps the letter tidy
A single code replaces long URLs and instructions, keeping the page clean and easy to read.

Common questions
Does a code belong in formal letters?
One code in the P.S. or footer feels helpful rather than gimmicky when it opens the exact document referenced.
What size suits letterhead?
1.5-2 cm at reading distance is plenty; anything larger crowds a formal layout.
