What Hovercode is
Hovercode creates and manages trackable QR codes, landing pages, and short links. Its dynamic QR codes allow the scan destination to be changed after the code has been created and printed. Codes can be customized with logos, colors, patterns, eye styles, frames, borders, and text. Free-plan analytics show scan totals and unique scans; paid plans add scan time, device, browser, and estimated city and country. The product also includes PDF QR codes, forms, multi-link pages, and GS1 Digital Link QR codes. Its API can create and update these assets programmatically, with integrations listed for Canva, Figma, Chrome, Airtable, and MCP access. The free plan costs nothing and includes 3 dynamic QR codes, 3 short links, and 1 multi-link page, all with unlimited scans. Pro costs $12 a month, billed Monthly, and includes 100 dynamic QR codes, 100 short links, 5 multi-link pages, and 1 custom domain. The QR code limits listed apply to dynamic codes; static QR codes are not subject to them.
