Pricing and plan limits come from each vendor’s own published pricing page, verified in August 2026. Where a vendor does not publish a number, this page does not invent one. It says the number is not published and tells you to ask.
The ordering is not a ranking. Each generator is described on what it is actually good at, and EZQR is last because it is our product and putting it first would tell you nothing you could trust.
We also checked what buyers in this category actually search for, using our own Bing Webmaster Tools and Google Search Console data for ez-qr.com over 23 September to 20 October 2026. Bing reported 31,960 impressions across 116 pages, and itemised 560 individual queries covering 8,754 of those impressions, 27.4% of the total.
Within those itemised queries, the largest commercial cluster by far is about codes expiring: 55 distinct queries, 712 impressions and 68 clicks. The single biggest is “free qr codes that don't expire” at 428 impressions and 15 clicks from average position 2.2.
Brand-versus-brand searching barely registers by comparison: 5 queries, 26 impressions and 0 clicks across the whole period. In Google Search Console the nine competitor names on this page returned 7 impressions between them and no clicks. That is why this page leads on what happens to a printed code rather than on a feature grid. Permanence is what people are actually asking about, by roughly 27 impressions to one.
Two caveats worth stating. Bing itemises only 27.4% of its own reported impressions, so the clusters above describe the itemised slice and not necessarily the rest. And this is demand measured against one site’s rankings, not category-wide search volume. It shows what we are found for, which is a narrower thing.
