What 47,000 codes point at

Aggregate destinations behind the website QR codes made here, mid 2026. Four groups dominate.

Printed worksheet with a QR code that opens a survey form on a student's phoneForms

Forms, surveys and sign-ups

The most common destination on this platform, by a wide margin. A code on the worksheet collects quiz answers, one on the seminar slide collects course feedback, one on the event poster collects registrations. People fill forms when the form is one scan away, and skip them when it is a typed address.

Flyer with a QR code that opens a map pin with a plotted routeMaps

The pin that walks people in

Thousands of codes here end at a map link. On a business card, a flyer or a booking confirmation, the scan opens navigation with the route already drawn - no address to copy into the app.

Product packaging with a QR code linking to a how-to videoVideo

Videos where reading is too slow

A how-to on the packaging, a demo reel on the trade-show stand, a class recording on the worksheet. The code takes the viewer to the exact video instead of a search box full of lookalikes.

Shop window sticker with a QR code leading to the business websitePages

The classic: your site on paper

Storefront window to homepage, portfolio card to portfolio, one-page site for a weekend market stall. The oldest use of a QR code, and still the backbone of the whole category.

See every scan: when, where, on what

A website QR code here carries a managed short link, and the scan passes through it. That single fact is what turns paper into a channel you can measure.

Each scan lands on the timeline with its device, operating system, browser and country. Hang two codes in two spots, compare their curves for a week, and the argument about where the poster should go ends with numbers instead of opinions. What scan analytics can tell you walks through each report.

What it does not do: identify people. There is no name, no profile, no cross-site tracking - just the scan event and its coarse context. Enough to judge the print, nothing to make a lawyer nervous. The full dashboard comes with a free account.

Built around one job: links in print

Any URL is fair game

Forms, map pins, playlists, booking pages, a PDF on your own server. If a browser opens it, the code carries it.

The destination stays editable

Point the printed code at a new page from the dashboard - a site redesign or a moved page never kills the print. Works for codes saved in a free account.

No expiry, no scan limit

The link inside the code is permanent and every scan is free. A code printed today keeps resolving years from now.

Styling that keeps scanning

Logo, brand colors, module and corner shapes, caption frames. The built-in checker flags any styling that starts to cost reliability.

Files for any print shop

PNG, SVG, 300 DPI PDF and WEBP. Download one, grab all of them as a ZIP, or email the full set to yourself.

Free without a catch

Creating and downloading needs no account and adds no watermark. An account is only there for editing the destination and reading the stats.

Link to lamppost in four moves

  1. 1

    Paste the link

    Any address a browser can open. We wrap it in a permanent address we manage.

  2. 2

    Make it yours

    Logo, colors, a frame with a caption that says what the scan opens.

  3. 3

    Scan the proof

    Check the printed sample yourself before a thousand copies do.

  4. 4

    Print and watch

    Hang it up and follow scans on the dashboard timeline.

Link hygiene before the ink dries

Almost every dead code in the wild died on the URL side. Ten habits that decide it, and a full conversion tracking setup for when the basics are covered.

Do

  • Use https - phones flag plain http pages as not secure right on the scan
  • Send people to the exact page, not the homepage they will have to navigate
  • Add UTM tags to the URL so the visit shows up attributed in your web analytics
  • Check the link again after any site redesign or CMS migration
  • Keep a quiet zone of clear space around the printed code

Do not

  • No pages behind a login - the scan lands on a wall instead of your content
  • No shortener chains: a bit.ly wrapping another redirect adds failure points
  • No raw IP addresses or ports - they break the moment the server moves
  • No URLs carrying session tokens or one-time parameters that expire
  • No pop-up walls on the landing page - mobile visitors bounce in seconds

Asked by people about to print

Can I change where the code points after printing?
Yes. Open the dashboard, edit the destination, and every printed copy follows on the next scan. The requirement is the same as for the stats: the code has to be saved in your free account. A code created anonymously keeps its original destination forever.
Does a Google Form behind a code work well?
It is the single most common setup on this platform, so yes. Two tips from the codes that do well: open the form once on a phone to check the question count feels reasonable, and switch off sign-in requirements unless you truly need them - a form that demands a Google login loses casual respondents.
Will scans show up in my Google Analytics?
Our dashboard logs the scan itself, even if the page never finishes loading. Your web analytics sees the visit. To connect the two, add UTM tags to the destination URL - then the visits from print carry their own label in GA and you can compare both numbers.
What happens if my site goes down or the page moves?
The code is not the problem: it keeps resolving to our redirect, which points where you told it. If the page behind it moved, update the destination in the dashboard. The scan that finds a 404 is almost always a page deleted on the site side, not a dead code.
Is there a limit on scans, or an expiry date?
No on both. The address inside the code does not expire, and there is no scan quota on any plan, including the free one. Codes made here in the earliest months still resolve.
What makes this website QR code different from a static URL code?
A static code bakes the address into the pixels: nothing to host, but also nothing to edit and nothing to count. This generator gives the URL type a managed short link instead, which is what makes the scan stats and the editable destination possible. If you specifically need a static one, our Wi-Fi type works that way - but for links, the managed kind is why people come here.

Give every printed link a pulse.

Paste the URL, style the square, print it where it counts. Free, no account, and the stats are waiting when you want them.
