Make a QR code you can change later

Most QR codes have the link baked in. Once printed, they can never change. A tracked QR code is different. It points to a short link, and you choose where that link goes.

Plain or tracked?

Pick plain for something that never changes, like your Wi-Fi details. Pick tracked for menus, posters, flyers and packaging.

Make a tracked code

1. Sign up free and open QR codes.
2. Press New QR code.
3. Under Type of code, choose Tracked code.
4. Paste your link into Destination.
5. Press Create code, then download it.

Scan one printed copy with your phone before you print a lot.

Tips for codes that scan

• Dark code, light background. Phones read light and dark, not colour.
• Keep the blank margin at 4 or more.
• Adding a logo? Set Damage tolerance to High or Highest first.
• Fill in Printed width. We tell you if the code will be too small to scan.

Change where it goes PRO

Open the code in QR codes and type a new Destination. That’s it. Every printed copy opens the new link right away. No reprinting.

Make many codes at once PRO

Got a code for every product, table or shop? Make them in one go.

1. In New QR code, choose Tracked code.
2. Choose A list of links.
3. Paste your links, one per line. Up to 500.
4. Set the colours and logo once. Every code gets the same design.
5. Press Create.

Each code counts its own scans, and you can change any of them later.

Want a name on each code? Paste a CSV with a url column and a title column.
