Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 19 of the 37 other QR code generators we grade

The report card
Best for static codes free and dynamic ones on a paid suite
QRStuff gives 5 static codes free and charges for dynamic codes, scan stats and an API, from $100 a year on Lite. The free dynamic codes expire after 30 days, and styling, logos and bulk creation need Full Suite at $270 a year.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Lite Suite is $100 a year ($10 monthly), Full Suite $270. The styling and logos are on Full, above the $20 dearer-quarter line when taken monthly. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Free Suite gives 5 static codes, 10 dynamic codes that last 30 days and 50 scans a month. Static codes never expire. |
| Features | B | Static and dynamic codes, analytics, many data types, short links, bulk creation and an API. The gaps are plan limits, not missing parts. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. A web app with suites, codes and data types to choose between. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with Zapier, Make, Slack, Google Analytics and Canva links and an API. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of QRStuff you could make: qR codes, digital business card and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $100 a year.
What you could make
- QR codes, digital business card and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- It plugs into other products, Zapier, Make and Workato among them, and has an API.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. QRStuff’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.
