QR CODE GUIDE

Static or dynamic? Choose the QR code that keeps working.

Static QR codes are simple, but they lock the destination forever. Dynamic QR codes route scans through a managed short link, so you can edit destinations, track scans and avoid reprinting when details change.

What is a static QR code?

A static QR code stores the final destination directly inside the QR pattern. It can work well for simple, permanent information, but you cannot change the link later without generating a new QR image.

What is a dynamic QR code?

A dynamic QR code opens a short managed link first, then redirects visitors to your chosen destination. That gives you editing, analytics and better control after printing.

Which one should you choose?

Use static for permanent, low-risk information. Use dynamic for menus, events, packaging, business cards, PDFs, videos and any campaign where links or files may change.
