How to use white label in Linkbreakers? Resell our system to your own customers

Building your own QR code platform from scratch is like reinventing the wheel. The infrastructure, reliability concerns, and feature development can consume months of engineering time that could be spent on core business value.

Linkbreakers' white label solution turns this around. Instead of building QR code technology, you get enterprise-grade infrastructure that scales infinitely while appearing completely as your own product. Your customers never see the Linkbreakers brand. They experience your solution.

Think of it as having a complete QR code platform team working behind the scenes while you focus on customer relationships and business growth. The heavy lifting of QR generation, analytics, custom domains, and scaling happens automatically.

Most constructions of Linkbreakers can be built via the Linkbreakers API. Full documentation is available at https://linkbreakers.com/help/api

The foundation: enterprise plan architecture

White labeling begins with the Enterprise Plan, which fundamentally changes how billing and scaling work. Unlike fixed-price tiers, enterprise billing operates on usage consumption, creating a perfect foundation for reseller economics.

Infinite scaling without limits

Traditional SaaS plans hit walls. Create 1,000 QR codes on a Pro plan? You'll need multiple subscriptions. The Enterprise Plan removes these constraints entirely.

Your billing scales with actual usage:

• QR code creation: billed per generated code
• Scan events: charged per scan action
• API requests: metered per call
• Custom domains: unlimited additions
• Team members: no artificial restrictions

This consumption model means you can serve one customer with 50 QR codes or 50,000 QR codes using the same account structure. Stripe automatically tracks and bills usage, removing billing complexity from your operations.

Resource isolation through intelligent filtering

Customer data remains completely isolated within your single enterprise workspace through sophisticated filtering and tagging mechanisms. The platform automatically separates customer resources without requiring separate workspace accounts.

Smart filtering ensures customers can't access each other's data through API calls or dashboard views. Your enterprise account provides the foundation while automatic segmentation creates natural security boundaries for customer isolation.

Custom domain mastery for brand control

Custom domains transform generic linkbreakers.com URLs into your branded experience. This creates seamless customer experiences where your brand remains prominent throughout the QR code journey.

Customer domain integration

Your customers can use their own domains for QR code destinations, creating end-to-end branded experiences. Configure domains through the Custom domains dashboard or API.

// Add customer domain via API
const domainResponse = await fetch('https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/custom-domains', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    domain: 'qr.customer-company.com',
    workspace_id: 'customer-workspace-uuid'
  })
});

Domain verification happens automatically through Cloudflare integration. DNS validation, SSL certificate provisioning, and CDN distribution occur without manual intervention.

Multi-tenant domain strategy

Implement sophisticated domain strategies for different customer tiers:

1. Shared subdomain: All customers use variations of your domain (customer1.yourqr.com)
2. Customer domains: Each customer brings their own domain
3. Hybrid approach: Mix of shared and custom domains based on pricing tiers

The Custom domains API documentation provides complete implementation details for each approach.

API-driven dashboard recreation

The Linkbreakers API exposes virtually every dashboard feature as programmable endpoints. This enables complete dashboard recreation within your own application stack.

Core functionality replication

Recreate essential dashboard features using API calls:

Link management interface:

// Fetch customer's links with pagination
const linksResponse = await fetch(
  'https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/links?page_size=50&include=qrcodeDesign,customDomain',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer CUSTOMER_WORKSPACE_TOKEN'
    }
  }
);

// Create new QR codes from your interface
const newLinkResponse = await fetch('https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/links', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer CUSTOMER_WORKSPACE_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    destination: customerData.targetUrl,
    name: customerData.campaignName,
    qrcode_design_id: selectedDesignId
  })
});

Analytics dashboard recreation:

// Build custom analytics views
const eventsResponse = await fetch(
  'https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/events/list?' +
  new URLSearchParams({
    start_date: '2024-01-01T00:00:00Z',
    end_date: '2024-01-31T23:59:59Z',
    include: 'visitor,device,link,leadScore'
  }),
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer CUSTOMER_WORKSPACE_TOKEN'
    }
  }
);

// Export customer data for external analysis
const csvExport = await fetch(
  'https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/events/list?response_format=RESPONSE_FORMAT_CSV',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer CUSTOMER_WORKSPACE_TOKEN'
    }
  }
);

Authentication and API tokens

Generate API tokens through the Workspace tokens interface. These tokens provide access to your enterprise workspace with built-in filtering capabilities for customer isolation.

Store tokens securely in your system and combine them with customer-specific filtering parameters in API calls. Token-based authentication enables stateless API integration without complex OAuth flows while maintaining customer data separation.

Advanced customer segmentation with tagging and metadata

Smart customer segmentation prevents data mixing while enabling sophisticated organization within your white label solution.

Tag-based customer isolation

Tags create logical boundaries within your enterprise workspace, enabling customer-specific views and operations:

// Create customer-specific QR codes
const customerLinks = await fetch('https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/links', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    destination: 'https://customer-site.com/landing',
    name: 'Customer Campaign',
    tags: [`customer-${customerId}`, 'premium-tier', 'q4-campaign'],
    metadata: {
      customer_id: customerId,
      billing_tier: 'premium',
      account_manager: 'sarah@yourcompany.com'
    }
  })
});

Flexible metadata for custom properties

JSONB metadata fields accommodate any customer-specific data structure. Store billing information, account details, or integration parameters directly with each QR code resource.

Metadata enables sophisticated filtering and reporting:

// Query customer-specific resources
const customerQRCodes = await fetch(
  'https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/links?' +
  new URLSearchParams({
    tags: `customer-${customerId}`,
    include: 'metadata,customDomain'
  }),
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN'
    }
  }
);

Tag and metadata combinations create powerful segmentation without requiring separate workspaces for each customer, simplifying your account structure while maintaining clear boundaries.

Integration patterns for existing tech stacks

The API-first architecture means Linkbreakers integrates cleanly with existing customer technology without requiring dashboard usage.

Webhook integration for real-time events

Connect customer systems to QR code events using webhooks:

// Configure webhook endpoints with customer filtering
const webhookResponse = await fetch('https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/webhooks', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    url: 'https://your-system.com/customer-webhook-handler',
    events: ['link.scanned', 'form.submitted'],
    active: true
  })
});

Webhook events include comprehensive scan data, visitor information, and custom metadata, enabling sophisticated integration with CRM systems, marketing automation, or analytics platforms.

CRM and marketing automation connections

Real-time webhook data connects QR code activity with existing customer workflows:

// Example webhook handler with customer filtering
app.post('/customer-webhook-handler', async (req, res) => {
  const { event_type, data } = req.body;
  
  if (event_type === 'link.scanned') {
    // Extract customer ID from link tags or metadata
    const customerId = data.link.metadata.customer_id;
    const customerTags = data.link.tags.filter(tag => tag.startsWith('customer-'));
    
    // Route to appropriate customer CRM
    await routeToCustomerCRM(customerId, {
      source: 'QR Code Scan',
      campaign: data.link.metadata.campaign_id,
      visitor_data: data.visitor,
      scan_location: data.device.location
    });
  }
  
  res.status(200).send('OK');
});

This enables customers to receive QR code intelligence within their existing business processes without learning new systems or changing workflows.

Technical architecture for white label success

API token management strategy

Implement structured token management for customer isolation and security:

1. Enterprise API tokens: Your primary account management with full access
2. Customer-filtered requests: Use tags and metadata to scope API calls to specific customers
3. Feature-specific filtering: Apply additional filters based on customer permissions and tiers

Rotate tokens periodically and monitor usage through the dashboard analytics to detect unusual activity patterns. Customer isolation happens through consistent filtering rather than separate token scopes.

Scalability considerations

The enterprise infrastructure handles scaling automatically, but implement client-side best practices:

Efficient bulk operations:

// Process multiple customers concurrently with proper tagging
const customerPromises = customers.map(async customer => {
  return fetch('https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/links', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      ...customer.linkData,
      tags: [`customer-${customer.id}`, ...customer.linkData.tags],
      metadata: {
        ...customer.linkData.metadata,
        customer_id: customer.id
      }
    })
  });
});

const results = await Promise.all(customerPromises);

Rate limit management:

// Implement exponential backoff for rate limits
async function apiCallWithRetry(url, options, maxRetries = 3) {
  for (let attempt = 0; attempt <= maxRetries; attempt++) {
    const response = await fetch(url, options);
    
    if (response.status === 429) {
      const retryAfter = response.headers.get('Retry-After') || Math.pow(2, attempt);
      await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, retryAfter * 1000));
      continue;
    }
    
    return response;
  }
}

Data export and portability

Provide customers with complete data export capabilities:

// Generate comprehensive customer data export
const exportData = {
  links: await fetchAllCustomerLinks(customerId),
  analytics: await fetchCustomerAnalytics(customerId, dateRange),
  designs: await fetchCustomerDesigns(customerId),
  domains: await fetchCustomerDomains(customerId)
};

// Export as JSON or CSV for customer portability
const csvData = convertToCSV(exportData);

Customer data portability builds trust and demonstrates platform confidence while meeting potential compliance requirements.

Revenue models and pricing strategies

Usage-based pricing pass-through

Enterprise consumption billing enables flexible customer pricing models:

1. Direct pass-through: Charge customers based on exact Linkbreakers usage
2. Markup pricing: Add margin to usage costs
3. Tiered plans: Bundle usage into customer-friendly packages
4. Hybrid models: Combine base fees with usage overages

Customer billing automation

Track customer usage through filtered analytics and API calls:

// Calculate customer usage from filtered events
const customerUsage = await fetch(
  'https://api.linkbreakers.com/v1/events/list?' +
  new URLSearchParams({
    tags: `customer-${customerId}`,
    start_date: billingPeriodStart,
    end_date: billingPeriodEnd,
    response_format: 'RESPONSE_FORMAT_CSV'
  }),
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN'
    }
  }
);

// Process filtered usage data for customer invoicing
const usageData = await customerUsage.text();

Automated billing reduces operational overhead while providing transparent cost tracking for both you and customers.
