Forever QR

QR codes that never expire.

Your link is written into the pattern itself. No account, no redirect, no subscription. Print it once and it keeps working for as long as the page it points to exists.

Every code is scan tested before you download it.

Why printed codes stop working

Subscription QR services

Many QR makers put their own short link inside your code. Every scan goes through their server first. When the plan lapses or the company shuts down, that link stops redirecting, and every flyer, menu and sign with that code goes dead.

Forever QR

Your destination goes straight into the code. There is no middle step, nothing to renew, and nothing that depends on our servers. Even if Forever QR disappeared tomorrow, the codes you made would keep working.

Check the codes you already have

Upload a photo of any printed code and see exactly where it points, including whether it runs through a short link service. The checker is free.

Questions

Is it really free?
Yes. Every feature is free, with no account, ads or paid upgrade. Your codes are made in your browser, so there's no server cost per code to pass on.
Can I change where a code points after I print it?
No. A static code can't be edited. If the destination might change, point the code at a page on a website you control and update that page instead.
Do you count scans?
No. Scans go straight to your destination and never touch our servers. To measure visits, add campaign tags to your link and read them in your website analytics.
Where are my presets and history kept?
In your browser, on your device. Nothing you make is stored on our servers, so clearing your browser data also clears them.
