Product pages and GS1 Digital Link
Ingredients, nutrition, certifications and care for a product behind a QR code on the pack, with GS1 Digital Link on your own domain.
A Product page is a hosted page for a code printed on packaging, a label or a hang tag. It holds what the pack has no room for: the full ingredient list, allergens, a nutrition table, certifications, care and recycling instructions. As with every hosted page, you can change it after printing and see every scan.
Create a product page
- Click New code and pick Product, or New page in Pages & forms.
- Pick a template:
- Food: ingredients, allergens and a nutrition table.
- Wine & drinks: ingredients and energy per 100 ml, an e-label for a bottle.
- Beauty & care: the full ingredient list, how to use it, warnings.
- Product passport: materials, where it was made, care, repair and end of life.
- Replace the sample text, numbers and photo with your product's, then click Publish.
The Product details block
| Part | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Certifications and labels | Short labels such as "Certified organic" or "Recyclable packaging". The editor suggests common ones. Only list labels your product actually holds. |
| Ingredients or materials | Plain text, line breaks kept |
| Allergens | The 14 allergens food businesses must declare in the EU and UK, shown as "Contains: …", plus a note such as "May contain traces of peanuts" |
| Nutrition | A table: what the values are per ("Per 100 g"), then each nutrient and its amount. Rows can be indented ("of which sugars"). Rows without an amount are hidden. |
| More information | Sections that open on tap: care, recycling, warnings, origin or anything else |
| GTIN | The number under the product's barcode (8, 12, 13 or 14 digits). QRdx checks its check digit. Shown under the details unless you turn it off. |
The Details block (labels and values, as a list or tiles) suits the facts around it: net weight, origin, alcohol content, size.
GS1 Digital Link
GS1 Digital Link
GS1 Digital Link is the GS1 standard for QR codes on products: the code holds a web address with the product's GTIN, such as https://go.yourbrand.com/01/09506000134352, so the same code can open your page and carry the GTIN that a point-of-sale scanner reads.
When a product page's QR code uses your custom domain and the page has a GTIN, that address opens the page:
https://<your domain>/01/<GTIN>opens the product page and counts a scan of its code, exactly like the code's short link. Code controls (password, schedule, scan limit, pause) apply too.- A batch or lot (
/10/<lot>), a serial number (/21/<serial>) and a consumer product variant (/22/<variant>) can follow the GTIN, in that order. They're accepted, and the same page opens. - A GTIN with a wrong check digit, or parts in the wrong order, shows "This product link isn't valid" instead of a page.
To use it:
- Move the product page's code to your custom domain (Edit link on the code).
- Enter the GTIN in the page's Product details block and publish. The block then shows the GS1 Digital Link with a copy button.
- Make the QR code on your packaging from that link. The code's short link keeps working as well.
A GTIN opens one product page per domain. If another page with a code on the same domain already uses it, publishing says which page, so you can change one of them.
Only on your own domain
On QRdx's shared address (qrdx.dev), product pages use their normal short link and GTINs never open a page. Anyone can create a QRdx account, so a shared GTIN lookup would let one person claim another brand's product number. On your own domain, only your workspace's pages can answer.
Plans
Product pages count as hosted pages, under the same plan limits as every other page type. GS1 Digital Link needs a custom domain, which is part of Pro and Business.
