Frequently Asked Questions

Q Why use a Dynamic QR code instead of a Static one?

Static text QR codes store your message directly inside the pattern and cannot be changed after printing. Dynamic codes point to a URL that you can edit at any time, allowing you to update your content and track scan locations and times.

Q Can I customize the design?

Yes. You can adjust the colors, modify the corner eyes, and add your logo to match your company branding. Clean, branded designs help your codes look professional so users feel safe scanning them.
