Questions and answers
Before you print
- Is it free?
- Fixed codes are free: make as many as you like, download a PNG with no sign-up, and get every other format and print files with a free account. Editable codes come with a plan, a pass, Keep-alive or the 14-day trial.
- Can I change the link after printing?
- Yes, with an editable code. It holds a short link you control, so you can point the printed code somewhere new any time, and the next scan opens the new page. A fixed code keeps the link it was made with.
- Can I use my own domain?
- Yes. A custom domain is included on passes, from Starter, and during the trial. Starter covers one subdomain, for example go.yourbrand.com, and apex domains start on Pro.
- What happens if I stop paying?
- Editable codes work to the end of your paid period, and after a failed payment every code keeps working for 14 days. Turn codes back on within 12 months. Fixed codes keep working as long as their links do.
How do I put photos in a QR code?
The photos sit on a page and the code opens it. Build a gallery in the app, or link the gallery on your own site.
How many photos can a gallery hold?
As many as your plan's storage allows; each file can be up to 25 MB on paid plans.
Can I add photos after printing?
Yes, with an editable code. Add or remove pictures and the printed code shows the update.
Do viewers need an app?
No. The gallery opens in the phone's browser.
Can guests upload their own photos?
This page shows your photos. For guest uploads at a wedding, see the wedding page.
Is a photo gallery QR code free?
A fixed code to your own gallery is free in SVG, PNG, JPG, WebP, PDF and EPS. A hosted gallery needs an editable code.
Can I sell the photos from the gallery?
Add a button under the gallery that links to your shop or booking page.
Can I hide the gallery later?
Yes. Turn the page off in the app when the exhibition or the event is over, and turn it on again whenever you like.
