Link in Bio QR Code Generator — Linktree, Beacons

A regular URL QR sends every scanner to one fixed destination (your website, your shop, your booking page). A link-in-bio QR sends scanners to a hub page that lists multiple clickable links — your shop, your social profiles, your booking, your newsletter, your latest drop — all on one tap-friendly page. The visitor picks which destination they actually want. Better for any deployment where audiences have varied intent and a single destination would mismatch most of them.

No — EZQR provides the QR code layer. The bio page itself lives on a platform you choose: Linktree (most common), Beacons (creator-focused), Bento, Stan, Carrd (full custom), or self-hosted on your own domain. EZQR generates the QR that points at whichever bio page URL you provide. With a dynamic QR ($5/month Lite plan), you can switch which platform the same QR points to without reprinting the printed asset.

Linktree is the default for casual use (free tier, fast setup, limited customization). Beacons adds creator-economy tools (paid bookings, tip jar, products) at $0–$15/month. Bento offers richer visual customization. Stan is creator commerce-first (sell digital products directly from the bio). Carrd is the full custom one-page-site option ($0–$19/year). Self-hosted on your own domain is the most durable for long-life print. Pick based on your revenue model and audience expectations.

5–7 links maximum. Research on decision fatigue consistently shows that more options reduces total clicks per visitor — a bio page with 15 links often produces fewer total taps than the same page trimmed to 6. Put your most time-sensitive destination (current promotion, latest drop, upcoming event) at the top. Rotate the top link as campaigns change. Use action-oriented labels ('Book a table,' 'Get the workout PDF') rather than platform names ('Calendly,' 'Downloads').

Yes — if you use either a dynamic QR or a bio platform that lets you edit links (Linktree, Beacons, Bento, Stan, Carrd all support this on every plan). The printed QR encodes the URL of your bio page; editing the bio page changes what visitors see at that URL without changing the QR. With a dynamic QR ($5/month Lite plan), you can also swap the bio page URL itself (migrate from Linktree to Bento), and the printed QR keeps working with the new destination.

Similar in concept — a hub page where visitors pick from multiple destinations. The difference: Linktree is the bio page hosting platform; EZQR is the QR code generator that points at any bio page (Linktree included). Use EZQR's QR with your Linktree URL, your Beacons URL, your Carrd URL, or your own hosted page. Dynamic EZQR codes survive bio-platform migration — switch from Linktree to Bento and the printed QR keeps working.

Only if you use a dynamic QR ($5/month Lite plan). A static QR encodes the bio page URL directly into the pattern; migrating from linktr.ee/yourname to bento.me/yourname breaks the static QR. The dynamic QR encodes a redirect URL we resolve to whatever destination you set in the dashboard. Migrate platforms, update the destination once, every printed code keeps working. For long-life print assets (book covers, packaging, durable signage), dynamic is the safer choice.

Per-link click tracking is a feature of the bio platform, not the QR. Linktree, Beacons, Bento, Stan, and Carrd all show per-link click analytics on their dashboards. EZQR shows you scan-level analytics on dynamic QRs (timestamp, device type, city-level location, referrer) — which physical asset drove the scan. Combining both views gives you the full funnel: which placement drove the scan, and which link the visitor then clicked.

For business cards, 2.5 cm × 2.5 cm minimum (close-range scan). For packaging stickers and table tents, 4 cm comfortable (arm's-length scan). For conference lanyards and slide footers, 4 cm. For storefront signage scanned from the sidewalk, 8+ cm. The 10:1 rule applies: code width ≥ scanning distance ÷ 10, with a 1.5× safety margin for older phones and variable lighting.

Yes — upload the QR PNG as a Story link sticker, a feed post, or a Reels thumbnail. Followers screenshot the QR and scan from another device or share to friends. This works especially well as a cross-platform bridge: your Instagram audience scans the QR to land on your full bio hub, which then routes them to your YouTube, podcast, shop, or newsletter — destinations Instagram does not link to directly from a single-link bio slot.

Yes — static link-in-bio QRs are free forever. No signup, no credit card, no watermark, full color and logo customization, PNG download. SVG and PDF export, plus dynamic codes that survive bio-platform migration and bio-page URL changes, start at $5/month (Lite plan). The free tier handles the typical single-platform use case (one Linktree URL, evergreen print) without limit.
