QR8 AND QR CODE GENERATOR

A QR Code Generator Pro alternative with a real free plan

QR Code Generator gives you 14 days free, then a paid plan. Starter has 2 dynamic codes and 10,000 scans; Advanced has 50 codes and is billed yearly. Plans renew automatically, with 30 days' notice to cancel, and the pricing page doesn't say what happens to your codes if you stop paying.

QR8 has a free plan with no time limit, and printed codes keep working even if you stop paying.

QUESTIONS

QR Code Generator questions

What happens to my codes if I stop paying QR8?

Your printed codes keep working. You go back to the free limits, and a code never stops because of a scan count.

Is QR8's free plan a trial?

No. Free is a plan, not a trial: 3 editable codes and 500 scans a month for as long as you like.

Can I change a QR code after printing?

Yes. An editable QR8 link lets you change the page it opens while the printed code stays the same.
