Why Subscription QR Services are a Scam

Most 'free' QR generators use 'Dynamic Redirects'. They own the link, not you. They can force ads on your users or disable your code at any time unless you pay their high monthly 'tax'.

OwnQR provides pure technology. Our mission is to ensure you own the infrastructure. No redirects you don't control, and no 'kill switches'.

Lifetime Access. One Fair Price.

QR Code Generator — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a static and dynamic QR code?
A static QR code encodes the destination URL directly in the image — it is permanent, free, and works offline. A dynamic QR code uses a short redirect link, allowing you to change the destination URL anytime without reprinting. Most QR services charge $10-30/month for dynamic codes. OwnQR offers lifetime dynamic QR codes for a one-time $15 payment with no recurring fees.
Do QR codes expire?
Static QR codes never expire — they are based on an open ISO standard (ISO/IEC 18004) and will work as long as the destination URL exists. Dynamic QR codes from subscription services may stop working if you cancel your plan. OwnQR dynamic codes do not expire because they are a one-time purchase with lifetime ownership.
What is the best QR code format for print — SVG, PNG, or PDF?
SVG (vector) is the best format for print. It scales to any size — from business cards to billboards — without losing quality. PNG works for digital use at resolutions of 300 DPI or higher. JPEG is acceptable for web and social media but not recommended for print. OwnQR provides free SVG and high-resolution PNG downloads for all QR codes.
How small can a QR code be and still scan reliably?
The minimum recommended size is 2×2 cm (0.8×0.8 inches) for scanning from arm's length. Each module (black square) should be at least 0.76 mm wide. For higher error correction levels, you need slightly larger codes. The rule of thumb: QR code width = scanning distance ÷ 10. Always test a printed sample before mass production.
Are there any truly free QR code generators with no subscription?
Yes. OwnQR generates unlimited static QR codes for free — no account, no watermark, no expiration. You can download in SVG, PNG, or JPEG formats instantly. For dynamic QR codes (editable destination URL + scan analytics), OwnQR charges $15 one-time instead of the $10-30/month that competitors typically charge. There are no recurring fees or hidden costs.
