The ministry said it was great news that more businesses and organisations were displaying the official QR codes.

So far, the number of posters created by businesses is 47,835 and the total number of poster scans to date is 948,774.

And the Ministry of Health has made getting the QR code poster easier, updating and simplifying how to download the poster through a new self-service portal.

"The ministry continues to encourage all businesses and organisations to display the official QR code posters to provide New Zealanders with the opportunity to keep track of where they've been with the NZ Covid Tracer app."
