How to deliver a unique QR/Barcode in an ActiveCampaign email
Coupon Carrier supports dynamic QR/Barcodes that you can insert into your ActiveCampaign emails. When a contact receives their email and their images are loaded, the barcode is generated for them and displayed.
This feature generates an HTML Image tag that you insert into your ActiveCampaign email using an HTML block. The Code block allows you to add HTML code to your email.
These are the steps to create a Coupon Carrier configuration and add the image tag to your ActiveCampaign email:
- 1
- From the main screen, choose "Create a New Configuration" and select the "ActiveCampaign QR/Barcode Image" template.
- 2
- The first step is to connect to your ActiveCampaign account.

- Once connected, you can change the barcode settings based on your needs and then choose which code list you'd like to use as the source of codes. You can import your own codes or use an autogenerated code list. Finally, save your changes and activate the configuration so that our dynamic image is active.

To add the image tag to your email, copy the HTML code from Coupon Carrier and insert it into an
HTML block in the ActiveCampaign editor.
- 5
- You'll notice that the image might appear broken. This is because the image link isn't completed correctly in the editor. To preview your email as a recipient would see it, you can send a test/preview email to yourself.

To prevent anyone from manipulating the image URL, we recommend that you check the option to "Enable Image Link Validation". With this option enabled, Coupon Carrier will validate the image request against your ActiveCampaign account to ensure that the link hasn't been manipulated.
