Know the difference

Static vs dynamic QR codes

One is encoded once and works forever. The other gives you control after the code is already printed. Here's how to choose.

Static QR code
Free forever

Content is encoded directly into the QR matrix. What's printed is what scans. Nothing can change it — not even us.

Never expires — works for the lifetime of the paper
No account or subscription needed
Higher QR density = can encode more data
Destination cannot be changed after printing
No scan analytics
No hosted landing page
Best for: Wi-Fi passwords, vCards, one-off events, product packaging with permanent links.
Dynamic QR code Recommended
From €7/month

The printed code encodes a short URL you own. Change the destination any time — the printed QR never changes.

Update destination after printing — no reprint
Real-time scan analytics (country, device, time)
Hosted landing pages (menu, vCard, payment…)
Schedule redirects, pause/unpause codes
Safe mode if you cancel — code keeps working
Lifetime redirect lock available (€49 one-time)
Best for: Menus, campaigns, posters, packaging, business cards — anything that might change.
Real scenarios

When does it actually matter?

Restaurant menu

Prices change. Dishes rotate. A dynamic code on table cards means you update the menu once in the dashboard — not on every printed card.

Use dynamic
Print campaign

You printed 5,000 flyers pointing to your spring promotion. It ends. A dynamic code redirects to the new offer immediately.

Use dynamic
Wi-Fi access

The password is what it is. A static code encoded once will still work in 10 years, and never requires a subscription.

Use static

Start with a static code. Upgrade when ready.

Free forever for static codes. No credit card for the first two dynamic codes either.
