The best way to connect to your digital platforms. Easily track your URL with this QR Code type and quickly replace or fix the link at any time, even after print.
A URL to QR Code Generator is a QR Code solution that converts your link into a QR Code. Users can scan the QR Code and then be easily redirected to any page on the web. This link could be your website, a landing page, or any other link that you’d like to promote. Also known as Dynamic URL QR Code, it is ideal for print marketing materials because users can open your link without the hassle of typing it themselves.
While your link can already be used on other platforms, long links can disturb the look of your content and they would also require separate tracking from your QR Code campaigns. That is why each QR Code from QR Code Generator comes with a customizable short URL that is highly beneficial because:
Yes, the awesome part about using our URL to QR Code generator for Dynamic QR Code is that you can edit your link at any time. If you’ve accidentally made a mistake in your link, need to change out the link entirely, or need to update your short URL, it’s possible to do so without having to create a new QR Code. In addition, Dynamic QR Codes give you the option even to change your type of QR Code solution. For example, if you decide you’d rather use a Video QR Code instead, you can easily change it in our online app without ever replacing the already printed QR Code. Important note: If you’d like to create a one time use URL to QR Code, there is a Static URL QR Code version. You can also create these in large batches for such instances like a conference using our QR Code API, but keep in mind that Static QR Codes can’t be tracked or edited.
The benefit of converting your URL to a QR Code is that it connects print marketing materials to a digital platform. For example, this is a particular problem with poster ads. Poster ads are displayed publicly in print form and promote a particular brand, product, or service with a link. But without a way for a user to directly access a company’s link without having to type it in themselves, a lot of people simply find it too inconvenient and don’t make a purchase. Furthermore, even if they do make a purchase, it’s difficult to know whether that purchase was related to a particular print ad. This is exactly where a URL to QR Code Generator removes this issue. Users can scan your QR Code, directly access the link, and purchase a much shorter and transparent time frame.

Using a URL to QR Code Generator by no means limits your ability to customize. All QR Codes can be styled based on custom frames with a unique CTA (call to action), brand colors, fun edges, and your logo or an image in the middle. You can also scale their size up or down to match each and each type of graphic design and brand requirements.

If you’re unsure about how big to make your QR Code, a larger size is better to ensure it can be scanned. QR Codes can be scaled up as large as billboards ads, so large sizes are no problem.
When designing your QR Code, you always have the option to add your logo (or an image) in the middle. It’s a good idea to do this because it connects users with your brand, as well as makes them feel safe about scanning your QR Code.
