QR CODE GUIDE

Static vs Dynamic QR Codes

Understand the difference between static and dynamic QR codes.

What is a static QR code?

A static QR code stores its destination or information directly in the QR pattern. Once created, its encoded content cannot be edited. It is suitable for stable information such as WiFi details or a permanent website address.

What is a dynamic QR code?

A dynamic QR code usually points to a redirect link managed by a service. The destination can often be changed later, and the service may offer scan analytics. These services may require an account or subscription.

Which should you choose?

Choose static QR codes for simple, permanent information. Consider a reputable dynamic QR provider for campaigns where destination changes and scan reporting are important.
