Choose the right kind of code

A static QR code stores its destination directly. Its destination cannot be changed after creation. A dynamic QR code uses a Yoyo redirect so you can update its destination later and review scans. Dynamic codes require Starter or Pro.

Make your code

  1. Open QR codes for your selected page.
  2. Give the code a name, enter a full destination URL, and choose static or dynamic.
  3. Choose a pattern and colors with strong contrast. Resolve any contrast warning.
  4. Save the code and download the available artwork.
  5. Scan the downloaded code with a phone before printing or sharing it.

Keep printed codes useful

For a dynamic code, edit its destination from QR codes. Disabling or deleting a dynamic code affects people scanning artwork you already shared. A static code cannot be recalled through Yoyo; it continues pointing at the URL stored in the image.
