Q. What is a dynamic QR Code generator?
A dynamic QR Code generator helps you generate editable QR Codes. Just like any other QR Code, dynamic QR Codes can lead customers to text, files, websites, audio, or to any destination URL. But as they are editable, the destination content or link can be changed, even after generating and printing the QR Code. Static QR Codes cannot be edited this way.
Q. What is the difference between a QR Code and a dynamic QR Code?
A Dynamic QR Code is a type of editable QR Code that lets you change the content or the destination URL even after creating the QR Code. Unlike static QR Codes, dynamic ones include beneficial features such as tracking QR Code scans, performance, and customizable QR Code designs.

At Beaconstac, the cost of dynamic QR Codes start at $5 a month and can go up to $99 a month, catered to businesses of all sizes. We also offer custom plans for enterprise-tier organizations.
Q. Do dynamic QR Codes expire?
No, dynamic QR Codes cannot expire. However, if the link it leads to doesn't redirect, or if the user decides to stop a campaign, the dynamic QR Code may redirect to a 404 error page upon scanning.
Q. Can a free QR Code generator make dynamic QR Codes?
No, a free dynamic QR Code generator does not exist. This is because you need a safe and secure paid account to make dynamic QR Codes, edit, and track them. However, if you want to try it for free, you can use Beaconstac 14-day free trial. During the free trial, you can create unlimited dynamic QR Codes.
Q. Is QR Code for a dynamic URL the same as a dynamic QR Code?
Technically, yes. When you create a dynamic QR Code on Beaconstac, we generate a short URL that can dynamically redirect to different destination URLs.
Q. Can I change a static QR Code to dynamic?
No, you cannot convert a static QR Code to dynamic. You must make a new one using a QR Code generator like Beaconstac. This is because, unlike free static QR Codes, the dynamic one is a QR Code for a dynamic link.
