Ready to create a QR Code? Here are a few basics to get started

1. What is a QR Code?

A QR Code is a 2D barcode first invented by the Japanese company Denso Wave in 1994. Almost three decades later, a QR Code has now become commonplace in almost every business. From product packaging, to billboards- QR Codes are being deployed everywhere to share information, track inventory, conduct surveys, and do much more.

You can go ahead and create a QR Code with Beaconstac’s free QR Code generator.

2. How do I scan a QR Code?

You can easily scan a QR Code using your mobile device. Just open the camera app or a QR Code scanner, and aim it towards the QR Code.

For excellent scannability, we recommend printing good quality, high resolution QR Codes. In case you plan to deploy the QR Codes in coarse environments like a construction site, we recomment creating durable QR Codes with high error correction levels.

3. What is the difference between a static and dynamic QR Code?

Static QR Codes are best for one-time use cases. They can be used to direct users to a fixed destination. This means one cannot change the destination URL once printed and distributed.

On the other hand, dynamic QR Codes are flexible in nature. They work best for long term use cases. One can modify or switch URLs linked to it, even after printing and distributing. Check out our complete guide on static vs dynamic QR Codes.
