Create a dynamic QR code
Make a code you can change after printing, from the playground or from your dashboard.
A dynamic code holds a short link that forwards to your destination. You need a free QRdx account. The Free plan includes 10 dynamic codes; Pro and Business have no limit.
From the playground
- Open the playground and type your link in Website address.
- Under the address, find the Dynamic QR code card.
- If you're signed out, click Sign in to make it dynamic and sign in. Your link is still there when you come back.
- Click Make it dynamic.
The card now shows your short link and "Scans go to" your destination. Download the code as usual: it now encodes the short link.
Dynamic codes from the playground work for website links. For other content, create a mobile page, which also gets a dynamic code.
From your dashboard
- Go to Codes in your dashboard and click New code.
- Under Link, choose Website link.
- Fill in Destination URL and, if you like, a Title.
- Click Create code.
You can then download the code or click View analytics to open it.
Choose your own short link ending
On Pro and Business, fill in Custom back-half to choose the end of the short link, for example qrdx.dev/q/spring-menu. It can be 3 to 64 letters, numbers, dashes or underscores.
On Free, QRdx picks a short random ending for you.
When you reach the limit
On Free, only active codes count toward the 10. Archived codes and codes in the trash don't. Archive a code you no longer use, or upgrade to Pro.
