What QR.io is
QR.io creates customized QR codes and tracks scans, with web, Android, iOS, and API access. Dynamic codes can point to landing pages that remain editable after publication, and their analytics report scan counts, locations, and dates. Static codes cannot be changed after creation and provide no scan statistics. Static formats include links, email, text, calls, SMS, WhatsApp, Wi-Fi, vCards, Bitcoin, and PayPal. Dynamic options cover websites, apps, social media, profile cards, business pages, coupons, feedback, video, images, PDF, multiple links, events, menus, and MP3. API customization includes colors, gradients, dot patterns, markers, logos, and frames. Bulk QR creation and campaign management are available. The paid API requires any plan and allows 2,000 requests per month. Monthly and yearly plans include unlimited QR codes and scans, five team members, and 2,000 API requests monthly.
