How to create a dynamic QR code

Paste your destination URL into the generator, then choose tracking and save the code to your account. Download the QR image and test it with a phone before printing. Give the saved code a name that identifies its campaign or placement.

Your printed code contains a short QRtracer link. When someone scans it, QRtracer opens the destination currently saved in your dashboard.

Change the destination without reprinting

Open the saved code in your dashboard, replace its destination URL and save. The QR pattern stays the same. Scan a printed copy again to confirm it reaches the new page.

Use this for seasonal menus, event schedules, updated PDF files and changing campaign pages. Keep the destination publicly accessible so visitors can open it.

Dynamic vs static: choose before you print

A static code stores the original link directly in its pattern. It is free to download without an account, but QRtracer cannot change that link or report its scans. A dynamic code stores a redirect link that you manage from your account.

Choose dynamic when you need editable destinations or scan analytics. Read the static vs dynamic comparison if you are deciding which type to print.

Track scans from your dynamic codes

See scan counts, activity over time, approximate locations and devices in Analytics. Use a separate named code for each placement to compare posters, packaging or table cards. See the QR code tracking guide for the available metrics.

A scan records an open of the redirect link. To measure completed purchases, bookings or form submissions, combine that activity with results from the destination website.

What happens to your codes after a plan change

Existing QRtracer codes keep redirecting and recording scans after the trial or cancellation, and their destinations remain editable. New accounts include dynamic-code creation, Analytics and QR Studio for 30 days. A paid plan provides ongoing access to those features.

See pricing and plans for current access and export options. Keep your destination online and test printed codes periodically.

Common questions

Is there a limit to how many times I can edit a dynamic QR code?▾
No. You can change the destination URL from your dashboard as often as you want. Updates propagate globally within seconds.
Do dynamic QR codes scan faster than static codes?▾
A short redirect URL can produce a less dense pattern than a long destination URL, but actual scanning speed depends on the design, print size, lighting and camera. A dynamic code also adds a redirect before opening the destination. Test your final artwork rather than assuming one type will always be faster.
Will my printed QR code stop working if I cancel my subscription?▾
Under the current plan policy, existing dynamic codes keep redirecting and recording scans after cancellation. You can still change the destination from your dashboard.
Can I export vector SVG files for professional printing?▾
PNG is available for download, and paid plans include SVG export. Test the final proof at its printed size.
