Frequently Asked Questions
QRUpp supports all major QR code formats - including URL, Dynamic, WiFi, Email, Phone, SMS, Event, Location, App Store, and even AI-generated designs. Each can be customised with colours, frames, and logos.
Static QR codes always point to the same link once printed.
Dynamic QR codes use short links that you can edit, track, schedule, target, or password-protect - all without reprinting. See Dynamic QR Codes.
You can create static QR codes instantly without signing up.
An account is required for Dynamic and AI QR codes, analytics, custom domains, and other advanced features.
No. QR codes created with QRUpp do not have scan limits. Your plan limits apply to how many QR codes, links, or AI QR codes you can create - not how many times they are scanned. You can print and share your codes as widely as you like without worrying about scan overages.
Use high contrast (dark code on light background), keep a clear quiet zone around the code, and test at your smallest print size. QRUpp automatically optimises contrast and sizing.
Use our QR code reader to upload a QR image (.png, .jpg, .jpeg, .svg, .webp) and verify the output. You can also use our camera scanner to test printed QR codes.
Yes - style codes with custom colours, frames, and optional logos. Real-time previews show exactly how your branded code will look before download.
SVG, PNG, JPG, and WEBP - all print-ready and scalable for packaging, signage, and large format.
Enable a Dynamic QR code to get built-in analytics (device type, timestamp, location). You can change destinations anytime from your dashboard.
AI QR codes combine functional QR data with AI-generated imagery to create visually striking, fully scannable designs. See AI QR Codes.
Static QR codes never expire. Dynamic and AI codes stay active while your links and account remain in good standing.
Yes - static QR code generation is free. Advanced tools (Dynamic links, analytics, AI) require an account and may use credits. See Plans.
Yes. Add a custom domain for your short links to keep URLs fully on-brand (e.g., go.example.com). This improves trust and click-through rates.
Yes - you can generate multiple QR codes in one session. For high-volume or automated workflows, use our API (see below).
Yes - QRUpp provides an API for programmatic QR and short-link creation, updates, and analytics retrieval. See the API documentation.
As a rule of thumb, the minimum printed size is 25–35 mm for normal viewing distances. Increase size for longer scan distances. Always test with your actual artwork and materials.
QRUpp supports standard QR error-correction levels (L, M, Q, H). The generator selects a suitable level based on your styling; choose higher levels for logo overlays or demanding print conditions.
Branding is supported, but keep strong contrast and avoid obscuring key modules or the quiet zone. Our live preview and scan tests help ensure reliability before print.
For Dynamic links we record standard event metadata (e.g., timestamp, device type, approximate location) to power analytics. We don’t collect unnecessary personal data. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Yes - with Dynamic QR codes you can update the destination URL anytime without reprinting. Static QR codes cannot be changed once created.
