Using this website
This website generates static QR codes. They run in your browser and do not expire. If you need a dynamic QR code, you can use a dedicated dynamic QR provider or set up your own redirect link.
What is a static QR code?
A static QR code contains the final information inside the code itself. For example, if you create a QR code for https://example.com, that exact link is encoded in the QR code.
Once printed or shared, a static QR code cannot be changed. If you need to update the link or content, you must create a new QR code and replace the old one.
What is a dynamic QR code?
A dynamic QR code usually stores a short redirect link instead of the final destination. When someone scans it, they first open the redirect, and then they are sent to the final destination.
Because the destination is managed on a server, you can change where the QR code points later without changing the QR image. Many dynamic QR services also provide scan analytics.
Main differences
Which one should you choose?
Choose a static QR code if you want something simple, free, and reliable. Static QR codes are a good fit for permanent content such as a homepage, product information page, menu PDF, or Wi-Fi details that will not change.
Choose a dynamic QR code if you plan to change the destination later or if you want scan analytics. Dynamic QR codes are often used in marketing campaigns, printed ads, product packaging, and event materials.
