QR Code Generator PRO report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for a few editable codes with hosted landing pages
QR Code Generator PRO, run by Bitly Europe, makes editable, trackable codes in 22 types, several with a hosted landing page so you don't need a website. Starter's $9.99 a month buys only 2 dynamic codes, 50 codes need Advanced at $18.99 billed yearly, and cancelling takes an email at least 30 days before the term ends.
Who QR Code Generator PRO is for
- Fits if you need a couple of editable codes for print with a phone landing page behind them
- Works for small teams that want codes sorted into folders, with separate logins
Who QR Code Generator PRO is not for
- Tight if you start on Starter, which allows only 2 dynamic codes and 10,000 tracked scans
- Pricey if you need more codes or the API, as Advanced ($18.99) and Professional ($49.99) are billed yearly only
- Watch out: cancelling takes an email at least 30 days before the term ends, and you can only downgrade after the first term
- Skip it if you want your codes feeding other apps, as the listing names no integrations
- Watch out: free static codes download as JPG only, and listed prices exclude VAT
Why QR Code Generator PRO gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyStarter is $9.99 a month billed yearly ($19.99 monthly), near this category's middle of $9, but it buys 2 dynamic codes and 10,000 scans. Fifty codes means Advanced at $18.99, billed yearly only, about twice the middle.
- CFree plan and trialEight static code types are free on the homepage with no account and never expire, but as JPG only, with no logo, editing or tracking. A 14-day trial of the paid features needs no card.
- CFeaturesDynamic codes in 22 types, hosted landing pages, scan stats by place, time and system, logos, folders, team logins, custom short links and CSV bulk creation. The gaps: no integrations on record, and the API only makes static codes.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. Free static codes need nothing, but dynamic codes mean an account, landing pages to fill in and plan limits to watch.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no apps and no integrations on record. The API on Advanced and Professional generates static codes inside your own app.

Keep QR Code Generator PRO, or make your own?
Your call
You could make the core of QR Code Generator PRO for yourself: qR codes.
What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. It costs $119.88 a year.
What you could make
- QR codes: an app builder makes this well.
- It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
What you could not
- An API that other software can build on.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
What this rests on. QR Code Generator PRO’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
