Checked 29 September 2026 against QR TIGER pricing and QRtracer pricing. This page compares published entitlements; it does not claim a measured speed or reliability advantage. Verify billing interval, currency, and checkout total for the plan you select.

Match the free option to the campaign

If your project needs only a few dynamic codes, compare the scan allowance with likely use before printing. A one-off invitation and a permanent product label create very different requirements. Include repeat scans and your own testing in that estimate.

QRtracer is useful when you expect to keep creating codes and want a QR-focused paid plan: Pro costs €5.99 monthly or €49 annually. Under the current QRtracer policy, existing redirects keep working after cancellation and destinations remain editable. Analytics, new dynamic codes, QR Studio, SVG, and CSV require the relevant paid access with a paid plan.

Decide whether you need file hosting or a destination link

For a brochure PDF, first decide who owns the downloadable file. With QRtracer, upload the PDF to your own website or another file service and use its publicly accessible URL as the destination. Test it in a signed-out browser: a link that works only for you is not a usable campaign destination.

If an integrated file library is central to your workflow, evaluate that provider feature directly. Do not assume that a tool described as a PDF QR generator also stores your files. QRtracer is a better fit when you already control the destination and need to edit its link or measure scans.

Switch without losing track of printed material

Another provider controls the short address embedded in its dynamic QR image. Creating a QRtracer code does not transfer that address. Before switching, inventory where the old image is used, keep important existing codes working, and test replacement artwork.

For each new placement, create a separate code or campaign-tagged destination so the resulting scans answer a useful question. Scan counts indicate requests; they are not verified people or purchases. Read QR code tracking explained before comparing campaign outcomes.

Questions before you switch

Does QRtracer impose a cumulative scan cutoff on Free redirects?▾
The current Free plan does not list a cumulative scan cutoff for existing redirects. Review the current Analytics entitlements and plan terms before a large campaign.
What should I do if an existing dynamic QR code stops working?▾
Decode the printed code and open its embedded URL directly. Check the destination, the provider account, and the provider's current plan terms. If the provider controls the short URL, another service cannot take over that printed redirect.
Can I customize the visual styling of my QR codes on QRtracer?▾
QR Studio supports foreground and background colors, margin, error-correction level, and a center logo. SVG export requires a paid plan; test every customized design before printing.
How does QRtracer filter out crawler bots from scan analytics?▾
QRtracer marks suspected automated traffic using request signals and excludes bot-flagged rows from analytics reports. Filtering is imperfect, so reported scans should not be treated as verified people or conversions.
