Dynamic QR code
QR code generator for websites
Create a QR code that opens any website, and change the destination anytime without reprinting it.
The most used type and the one that gives the least trouble. The code stores a short address of ours, and that address forwards to whatever page you choose. What you print never changes; what sits behind it can, whenever you want.

What a Website QR code is for
-
Posters and shop windows
A printed poster lives for months. Point it at the summer sale today and at the new collection in September, without another trip to the printer.
-
Labels and packaging
Packaging is printed in runs of thousands. If the spec sheet moves, you change the destination and every box already printed keeps working.
-
Know which medium works
One code for the flyer, one for the window, one for the van. Compare scans and you know which one is worth repeating.
-
Long addresses
A URL with campaign parameters runs a hundred characters and produces a dense pattern that scans badly from a distance. With a redirect, the code stays simple.
Change the destination without reprinting
The code does not contain your address: it contains a short one of ours. When someone scans, that address forwards them to wherever you have set at that moment. Change the destination page tomorrow and every poster already out there points to the new one.
Scans are counted too: how many and when. That tells you whether the poster works where it is or needs moving.
Website QR code questions
Can I change the address after printing the poster?
Yes, that is the whole point of this type being dynamic. Edit the destination and the codes already out there lead to the new page.
Does the pattern change when I change the destination?
No. The pattern depends on the short address, which never changes. That is why what you printed stays valid.
What if the destination page goes down?
Scanners will see that page’s error. The redirect keeps working, so you can point it somewhere else while you fix it.
These questions do not depend on the code type, and they are worth reading before sending anything to print: what size to print a QR code at , why a heavily customised code stops scanning and what gets recorded when a dynamic code is scanned .
