Question 1

Is FreeQRGen really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely. There are no plans, no usage limits, and no credit card required — ever. The QR code standard is open technology, and we think the tools to use it should be free too.

Question 2

What's the difference between a static and dynamic QR code?

Accepted Answer

A static QR code encodes your destination directly — scan it and you go straight there. A dynamic QR code routes through a third-party server first, which then redirects you. Dynamic codes let you change the destination later without reprinting, but require an ongoing subscription. If you stop paying, your printed codes break. FreeQRGen generates static codes that work forever without any subscription.

Question 3

Do QR codes expire?

Accepted Answer

QR codes themselves never expire. If you're linking to a URL, the code works as long as that URL stays live. For static content like contact info or WiFi passwords, it will work indefinitely. Static codes from FreeQRGen have no expiry date — there's no account or service keeping them alive.

Question 4

Can I use FreeQRGen QR codes commercially?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The codes you generate are yours to use however you like — on products, in ads, for clients, or anywhere else. There are no licensing restrictions.

Question 5

Can I customize the appearance of my QR codes?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. FreeQRGen's customize page gives you full control over dot style, colors, gradients, corner shapes, and download size. Changes preview live in your browser.

Question 6

Which file type should I use for printing — PNG or SVG?

Accepted Answer

SVG is the better choice for print. It's a vector format that scales to any physical size without losing sharpness, whether you're printing a business card or a billboard. PNG is resolution-dependent, so if you need it for print use the size slider on the customize page to export at a higher resolution — 600px works for most standard sizes, 1000px or more for anything A4 or larger. PNG is more universally supported by print shops and design tools; SVG has occasional compatibility gaps with older software.
