Best for QR codes and NFC tags

QRLab makes static QR codes free with unlimited downloads. Editing, tracking and custom links need a dynamic plan whose price is not public, and many menu items are marked Coming soon.

Who Qrlab is for

  • Fits if you only need static codes
  • Works for someone who also wants NFC tags

Who Qrlab is not for

  • Watch out: dynamic plan prices are not on public pages
  • Tight if you want editing or tracking, as that needs the dynamic plan
  • Watch out: many menu items on its pages are marked Coming soon
  • Skip it if you want apps or integrations, as none are listed

Keep Qrlab, or make your own?

Your call

You could make the core of Qrlab for yourself: qR codes and reports.

Whether that is worth the price is your call.

What you could make

  • QR codes and reports: an app builder makes these well.
  • It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.

What this rests on. Qrlab’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.

What is Qrlab?

Qrlab, from The Lab Group, creates QR codes and NFC tags for links, files, vCards, menus, WiFi and more. Static codes are free with an account, and dynamic codes add editing, scan tracking, custom URLs and geofencing under a plan priced inside the account area.

Worth knowing

  • Dynamic plan prices are not on public pages; the support page says they sit in the pricing section of an account.
  • The vendor's own how-it-works and support pages show many menu items marked Coming soon.
  • Static codes are free; editing, scan tracking, custom URLs and geofencing need the dynamic plan.

Key features

Many destinations
The generator lists link, file, vCard, menu, WiFi, link page, media, contact, payment, app, custom page, poll, event RSVP and booking options.
Scan tracking
Dynamic codes track scans with analytics on frequency and locations.
Custom link and URL masking
Dynamic codes can use a custom link for the destination, plus URL masking, according to the support page.
Geofencing
Geofencing restricts a code so only people inside a chosen location reach the destination.
Design tools
Codes can be restyled with shapes, colors, images and frames.
