Change the link of a QR code after printing
If your code is already printed, it can only be changed if it is dynamic. Create an editable QR code for free and redirect it whenever you need.
- 3 free dynamic codes
- Unlimited scans
- No watermark or ads on scan
- Never deactivated
Can a printed QR code be edited?
It depends on the type. A static code contains the link itself: the pattern of squares is the link, so it cannot change once printed. If the link is wrong or the page moves, the only fix is a new code.
A dynamic code contains a short link that redirects to your destination. The printed pattern never changes, but you can change where the short link leads as many times as you want.
What if my current code is static?
If the code points to a page you control (your website), you can keep the code and update the content of that page, or redirect that URL to the new one from your website.
If it points to something you do not control, create a dynamic code now and use it on your next print run, so this does not happen again.
Typical reasons to change a link
People change the destination of their codes when:
- The website or the online store changed address.
- A form, survey or registration closed and a new one opened.
- The promotion ended and the code should lead to the regular catalog.
- There was a typo in the link that was printed.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about creating, customizing and using your QR codes.
Didn’t find what you were looking for?
Write to usCan I edit a static QR code?
No. The content is encoded in the pattern itself. You can only change what is behind the link if the page belongs to you.
How many times can I change a dynamic code?
As many as you want. The printed code stays the same and the scans keep being counted.
Does the dynamic code stop working if I do not pay?
No. QRmora’s 3 free dynamic codes have no trial period and are not deactivated for lack of payment.
Can I pause a code temporarily?
Yes. A paused code shows “page not found” when scanned until you activate it again.
