Short answer
Linkbreakers QR codes redirect scans to any Jotform URL, unlocking Jotform's advanced form capabilities — file uploads, electronic signatures, payment collection, and complex conditional logic — at the point of a physical QR scan. Linkbreakers handles the tracking and routing; Jotform handles the rich data collection experience. Together, they extend QR-triggered workflows far beyond simple contact capture.

- Works for delivery confirmation, field inspections, event registrations with payment, and compliance workflows
What you can do with Jotform + Linkbreakers
Jotform is one of the most feature-rich form builders available. Beyond standard text and dropdown fields, it supports file upload widgets, signature capture, payment processing (Stripe, PayPal, Square), appointment scheduling, and sophisticated conditional logic. These capabilities make it the right tool when a QR scan needs to collect more than just a name and email.
Linkbreakers provides the QR code and the tracking layer. Every scan is logged with source, time, location, and device data. The visitor is redirected to the Jotform in milliseconds. Jotform handles the complex form experience, stores the submission, and can forward data to your systems via its 150+ native integrations or a webhook.
| Use case | How it works | Business value |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery QR → proof of delivery form | Delivery label QR → Jotform with signature + photo upload | Digital POD collected at point of delivery |
| Event QR → registration with payment | Event poster QR → Jotform with registration fields + payment | Walk-up registration and payment in one scan |
| Field inspection QR → inspection form | Location QR → Jotform with checklist + photo upload | Structured, photo-documented field reports |
| Product recall QR → return form | Packaging QR → Jotform with complaint + file upload | Compliant, documented customer return process |
| Legal document signature → QR | Contract QR → Jotform with e-signature widget | On-site signing with digital audit trail |
| Equipment rental QR → damage waiver | Rental QR → Jotform with terms + signature | Customer acknowledgment captured before use |
Key use cases
Collect proof of delivery with signature and photo via QR
Logistics and delivery operations need documented proof that deliveries occurred — traditionally collected on paper or through expensive specialized apps. A Linkbreakers QR code on a delivery label or package opens a Jotform with a recipient name field, a signature capture widget, and an optional photo upload field (for documenting delivery location or condition). The recipient scans, signs, and optionally takes a photo, and submits. The completed form with signature and photo goes to your operations database immediately.
This approach works on any smartphone without installing an app. It creates a timestamped, location-stamped digital record of every delivery. The delivery driver's job is simply to ask the recipient to scan and sign — no paper, no specialized hardware.
Enable walk-up event registration and payment with a single QR code
For events that allow walk-in attendees — conferences, workshops, meetups, fitness classes — a Linkbreakers QR code at the entrance can drive a complete Jotform registration and payment flow. The attendee scans, fills in their name and email, selects their ticket type, and pays via Stripe or PayPal without the organizer handling cash or card terminals. Jotform sends a confirmation email automatically. The attendee is registered and paid in under two minutes.
Linkbreakers' analytics tell you how many people scanned the QR code at the entrance, and Jotform's payment records tell you how many completed a purchase. The conversion rate between the two is a useful metric for evaluating the registration experience.
Run field inspections with photo documentation via posted QR codes
Operations teams conducting regular inspections — equipment checks, facility safety audits, inventory counts — often use paper forms that are slow to process and easy to lose. A Linkbreakers QR code posted at each inspection location opens a Jotform specific to that location. The inspector fills in the checklist on their phone, uploads photos of any issues, and submits. The completed report — with photos attached — goes to a Google Sheet, Airtable base, or the inspector's supervisor's email in real time.
Because each location has its own Linkbreakers QR code, the inspection report is automatically associated with the correct location without the inspector needing to type a location name.
Capture electronic signatures from physical materials
Compliance and legal teams often need signed acknowledgments for policies, waivers, or agreements. Rather than printing paper for every signature, a Linkbreakers QR code on a posted notice, a loaner device agreement, or a service contract opens a Jotform with the relevant text and an e-signature widget. The signer scans, reads, signs, and submits. The signed form with a timestamp and IP address creates a digital audit trail that is typically sufficient for standard compliance requirements.
How to connect Jotform with Linkbreakers
- Create your form in Jotform with the fields, widgets, and payment or signature components you need. Test the form thoroughly before publishing.
- In Jotform, publish the form and copy the public form URL from the Share tab.
- If needed, set up Jotform's integrations: connect to Google Sheets, Airtable, your CRM, or configure a webhook to forward submissions to your automation platform.
- Log in to app.linkbreakers.com and create or open the link you want to use.
- In the link's workflow editor, set the redirect destination to your Jotform URL.
- Optional — pre-fill Jotform fields: Jotform supports URL parameter-based pre-filling. Append pre-fill parameters to the Jotform URL in the Linkbreakers destination field to pre-populate known values like location name, product ID, or inspector name.
- Generate your Linkbreakers QR code, publish the link, and test by scanning and completing the form on a mobile device.
- Verify that the submission appears in Jotform's response dashboard and in any connected integrations.
Frequently asked questions
Does Jotform work well on mobile devices accessed via QR code? Yes. Jotform is fully responsive and optimized for mobile. Its form widgets — including signature capture, file upload, and payment — all function on modern mobile browsers. The signature widget is specifically designed for touchscreen use, making it practical for QR-triggered signing workflows.
Can Jotform process payments directly from a QR-triggered form? Yes. Jotform integrates with Stripe, PayPal, Square, Authorize.Net, and other payment processors. A payment field can be added to any Jotform and will collect payment when the form is submitted via any channel, including a QR code redirect. You need a Jotform paid plan to enable payment widgets.
What Jotform plan is required for file uploads and signatures? Jotform's free plan supports file uploads and basic forms. The Starter (paid) plan and above include e-signature widgets and higher storage limits. Payment integrations require a Gold plan or above. Check Jotform's current pricing for the plan that matches your required features.
How do I pass location or QR code data into Jotform automatically? Use Jotform's URL-based field pre-filling. In Jotform, add a field for the location or QR code name and enable pre-filling via URL parameter. In the Linkbreakers destination URL for each QR code, append the pre-fill parameter with the location or QR code identifier. Each form submission will then automatically include the correct location data.
Can Jotform send a confirmation email to the person who completed the form? Yes. Jotform's email notification settings include an "Autoresponder" email that you can configure to send a personalized confirmation to the respondent's email address. This is useful for delivery confirmations, registration confirmations, or any use case where the respondent needs a receipt of their submission.
Is there a limit on how many Jotform submissions I can receive through this integration? Jotform's free plan includes 100 monthly submissions. Paid plans increase this limit significantly. Linkbreakers does not limit the number of QR redirects to your Jotform. If you expect high submission volume, ensure your Jotform plan accommodates it.
Limits and caveats
- Integration availability may vary by plan. Visit app.linkbreakers.com to check your current plan.
- Webhook delivery depends on third-party service uptime and configuration.
- Feature availability on connected platforms depends on your subscription with those services.
