What it is
QR.io is a QR code service for creating customized codes and tracking scans. Its dynamic codes can point to a landing page that remains editable after a code is made public, and analytics show scan counts, locations, and dates. Static codes cannot be changed after creation and do not provide scan statistics. Static options include links, email, text, calls, SMS, WhatsApp, Wi-Fi, vCards, Bitcoin, and PayPal. Dynamic destinations include websites, apps, social media, profile cards, business pages, coupons, feedback, video, images, PDFs, multiple links, events, menus, and MP3. QR.io also lists bulk creation, campaign management, and branding options such as colors, gradients, dot patterns, markers, logos, and frames. Its paid API requires a plan and allows 2,000 requests per month; the company says to contact it about more. Plans start at $39.99/mo, with a 7-day trial and no free plan. QR.io is available on web, Android, and iOS, and lists email and 24/7 live support.
