Dynamic codes

Pause, schedule or limit a code

Turn a dynamic QR code off, set start and end dates, cap its scans, and choose where ended codes send people.

All of these are in one place: open the code from Codes, then under Settings, open Access & schedule.

Pause a code

Turn on Pause code and save. You can also choose Pause from the code's menu in Codes, and Resume to turn it back on.

Pausing works on every plan.

Set start and end dates

Fill in Starts, Ends or both. Scans before the start or after the end don't reach your destination.

Use this for a campaign with fixed dates. Pro and Business only.

Cap the scans

Set a Scan limit. After that many scans, the code ends. Pro and Business only.

What people see

When a code isn't active, scanners see a plain page with no QRdx branding:

  • Paused: "This campaign is paused".
  • Before the start date: "This campaign hasn't started yet".
  • After the end date or the scan limit: "This campaign has ended".

Send people somewhere useful instead

Fill in Fallback URL to send scans of a paused or ended code to a page you choose, such as your homepage. It doesn't apply before the start date.

After a downgrade

Settings you already saved keep working. Removing a setting never needs a paid plan.
