Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change the URL after creating the QR code?
Static QR codes encode the URL permanently. Use a dynamic QR code if you need to change the destination later without reprinting.
Is there a character limit for URLs?
QR codes can encode up to ~2,953 bytes. Shorter URLs produce simpler, more scannable patterns. We recommend keeping URLs under 200 characters.
Do URL QR codes expire?
Static URL QR codes never expire. They work as long as the destination URL is active.
