What is a url qr code?
A URL QR code embeds a web link. When scanned, the user's phone opens the link in their default browser. Works with any URL — including deep links into apps.

Frequently asked questions
Will the QR work for any website?
Yes. Any valid URL — http, https, FTP, app deep links — encodes correctly.
Does the QR break if the URL is long?
Long URLs work but produce denser QR codes that are harder to scan from a distance. For long URLs, consider using a URL shortener first.
Can the URL be changed after the QR is printed?
Not with a static QR code (free tier). For editable destinations, dynamic QRs are coming in Phase 2.
Can I track scans?
Not with the free static QR. Scan analytics arrive with our Pro tier.
