About Terraboost

Terraboost Media is a pioneer in wellness kiosk advertising, placing free hand-sanitizing stations with branded ads in major supermarkets, malls, and retail pharmacy locations across the USA. Since 2007, the company has grown into a nationwide network of 120,000+ kiosks, serving around 5,000 advertisers.

Seeking to bridge the gap between physical in-store impressions and measurable digital outcomes, Terraboost partnered with Scanova to embed Dynamic QR Codes into their wellness kiosk displays. Every ad unit became an interactive, trackable touchpoint, connecting shoppers to websites, offers, etc. in real time.

The challenge: Turning kiosk impressions into trackable digital engagement and cut reprinting costs

Generic, rigid, and unbranded QR Codes that reduced scan appeal

Before Scanova, Terraboost used static codes with limited flexibility. Updates required reprinting, increasing costs and delays. Lack of customization reduced scan appeal, while limited analytics restricted tracking performance, and customer journeys, making it difficult to measure ROI and optimize campaigns.

Dynamic QR Codes that instantly updated campaigns

Terraboost could change destination URLs, swap landing pages, and update offer details instantly, without reprinting via Scanova's Dynamic QR Codes.

They pushed live changes across all active codes simultaneously, eliminating reprinting delays and making campaign agility a core operational advantage.

Customized, branded QR Codes for supermarket advertising

Scanova's QR Code customization tools allowed Terraboost to build codes that matched each client's brand identity — incorporating logos, color palettes, and campaign visuals directly into the design.

The result was a more cohesive ad unit that aligned with the brand's design and led to more scans, measurably improving scan-through rates compared to generic codes.

Campaign tagging and pixel integration for full attribution

Terraboost was able to add campaign identifiers like UTM parameters, Facebook pixels, and other tracking tags to each Scanova Dynamic QR Code.

These helped attribute each scan to a specific kiosk, ad, or promotion, closing the loop between physical impressions and digital conversions and giving advertisers visibility into campaign insights.

By switching to Scanova's editable codes, Terraboost eliminated the recurring cost of reprinting and redeploying kiosk artwork with every campaign update. A single editable QR Code could support multiple campaigns across its lifetime, saving thousands of dollars in printing and labor costs, making the media program substantially more economical to operate at a national scale.
