Scan to open

How it works

Create a URL QR code in three steps

  1. Enter your link

    Paste any web address — a page, profile, document or store listing.

  2. Customise and download

    Set colours, add a logo and export a sharp file for screen or print.

  3. Scan to open

    A phone camera reads the code and opens your link in the browser right away.

Why static URL

The link is part of the pattern

Direct and static

The destination is encoded in the pattern, with no managed redirect or scan analytics.

Always works

There's no redirect or server in the middle, so the code opens your link for as long as that page exists.

Fixed and untracked

The destination can't be changed and scans aren't counted — choose a link you're sure won't move.

URL QR code FAQ

Can I change the link after printing?

No. A static URL code stores the address in the pattern, so a new destination means a new code. If you may want to redirect it later, use our dynamic website code instead.

Can I track scans on a URL code?

No. A static code goes straight to your link without a middle step, so there are no scan counts or locations. Website codes add full analytics if you need them.

What happens if the page is deleted?

The code will still open the address, but it'll land on a missing page. Because you can't edit a static code, only use it for links you expect to stay live.

Is a URL QR code really free?

Yes. There's no account or expiry — the code works as long as the print exists and the page stays online.

Should I use a static or dynamic URL code?

Choose static for cheap, permanent links you'll never change. Choose dynamic when you want to edit the destination or measure scans.

A practical setup

  • Use the final destination URL.
  • Keep the URL short when possible.
  • Print only after checking that the destination is genuinely permanent.

Questions to answer before publishing

  • Will the information change? If it might, choose a dynamic type instead; this static payload cannot be edited after printing.
  • What should the printed instruction say? Describe the result of scanning in a few words rather than using “Scan me”.
  • Does each placement need separate reporting? This static type has no Qrcado analytics.
  • Has the final proof been tested? Check the real size, surface, lighting and mobile destination with more than one phone.
