QRdx vs Pageloot

Pageloot and QRdx both make dynamic QR codes that you can edit after printing, with scan analytics and hosted mobile pages, and both have a free generator that needs no account. Pageloot is run by Pageloot OÜ in Tallinn, Estonia. The two differ most in how many dynamic codes each plan allows and in what happens to them when you stop paying.

Who each tool is forCopy Anchor Link

Pageloot suits marketing teams and agencies that want a hosted QR dashboard with a fixed number of codes. Its plans run from Starter (15 dynamic codes and 1 user for $7/mo billed yearly, or $30 monthly) through Pro (300 codes, 3 users, $36 or $150) and Agency (1,500 codes, 5 users, $99 or $199) to Max (5,000 codes, 10 users, $299 or $599). All four include unlimited scans and unlimited scan history, and there is a 14-day trial that needs no credit card.

QRdx suits people who want to start free and pay little as they grow. Static codes are free and need no account. The Free plan adds 10 dynamic codes and 3 hosted pages. Pro ($5/mo or $48/yr) makes both unlimited, and Business ($15/mo or $144/yr) adds unlimited team members and white-label pages. Developers can use the REST API, the MCP server or the npm library, and the whole app can be self-hosted.

Where Pageloot is the better choiceCopy Anchor Link

• You'd rather pay once. Pageloot's lifetime deal costs $197, $297 or $897 one time for 15, 60 or 300 dynamic codes, and its page says "Buy once, use forever." Its terms define lifetime as the product's commercial lifetime and say "We aim to provide access for at least 5 years from purchase." QRdx bills monthly or yearly.
• You want unlimited scan history on the cheapest plan. Every Pageloot subscription keeps unlimited scan history. QRdx keeps 90 days on Free, 3 years on Pro and everything on Business.
• You manage codes for clients. Pageloot's Agency plan adds client reports (a live stats page for each client, with their logo), a white-label dashboard and payment by invoice.
• You want a money-back promise up front. Pageloot's pricing page offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. QRdx looks at refund requests case by case.
• You want the site in your own language. Pageloot's site comes in 37 languages. QRdx is English only for now.

Key differencesCopy Anchor Link

• Code limits. Pageloot sets a number of dynamic codes for each plan, from 15 on Starter to 5,000 on Max. QRdx Pro and Business have no limit on dynamic codes or hosted pages.
• When you stop paying. Pageloot's pricing page (checked 10 November 2026) answers "What happens to my QR codes if I cancel?" with "Your QR codes will become inactive after your plan has expired. If you need to access the statistics or edit your QR codes, you just have to renew your subscription." That answer is about subscriptions; the lifetime deal page doesn't repeat it. On QRdx, dynamic codes keep redirecting after a downgrade or a cancellation, and the account moves to Free.
• Trial and free use. Pageloot's trial gives you 14 days of dynamic codes without a card, and its generator page says dynamic codes "are part of a paid plan". QRdx Free includes 10 dynamic codes with no time limit.
• Developer access. Pageloot lists "Custom integrations, API & MCP" on its Enterprise plan, which is priced on request. QRdx has a REST API and an MCP server on every plan, plus an npm library and a CLI, and it's open source under AGPL-3.0.
• Design. Both have logos, colors, gradients and frames. Pageloot's shape, frame and color options grow with the plan, from "Limited" on Starter to "Custom" on Max. QRdx has 23 body patterns, 17 eye shapes, 21 eye-dot shapes and 437 frames.

Switching from PagelootCopy Anchor Link

1. If you're on a Pageloot subscription, keep it until your new codes are printed. Its pricing FAQ says codes "will become inactive after your plan has expired".
2. List each code's name, short link and destination in a spreadsheet, save it as CSV and import it from Dashboard → Codes → Import. Each row becomes a dynamic QRdx code.
3. Rebuild link-in-bio, vCard and file pages as QRdx hosted pages, and test every code on a couple of phones before printing.
