A dynamic marketing QR code lets you point a printed code anywhere and change it any time, without reprinting. Here is how it differs from your e-label QR and where to use it.

Most wineries now know the e-label QR code: the fixed code on the back label that links to legally required product and nutrition information. It has to stay the same for the life of the bottle, and that is exactly what compliance demands.
But that fixed code is not the only QR code a winery needs. Everything else in your marketing, from packaging to posters to event handouts, benefits from a code you can change at any time. That is what a dynamic marketing QR code is for.
A dynamic QR code does not encode your destination directly. Instead it points to a short link that you control. Because the printed code only ever contains that short link, you can change where it leads at any moment without touching the code itself. Print it once, redirect it forever.
That single property unlocks a lot: you can fix a typo in a destination URL after printing, swap a campaign page when the campaign ends, or repoint a poster from last year's event to this year's.
It helps to keep the two apart, because they do very different jobs.
In other words: one keeps you compliant, the other works for your marketing.
In Glasswise, every marketing QR code is more than a redirect. Each one supports:
Anywhere a printed code needs to stay flexible:
