Why this needs to exist

A code you can edit is a code somebody can switch off.

A QR code that lets you edit the destination later has to phone home to a server every time someone scans it, which means whoever hosts it can turn it off. The app on our receipt prices around that fact: free to start, a paid trial to edit, then a charge every four weeks, and the code stops when the payments do. By then the flyers, menus or invitations are printed, and printed materials are the leverage.

1.3 / 5

One of the largest editable-QR platforms carries a 1.3 TrustScore across 9,317 public reviews, overwhelmingly people describing codes that went dark when a trial or subscription lapsed.

$300+

What it costs to reprint 100 wedding invitations when the QR code on them stops resolving. This isn't a complaint we're repeating. It's the published rate: digital printing runs $1–$3 a card, and a 100-guest digital suite lands at $300–$500 before shipping. A dead code means paying it twice.

Basis: per-card and per-suite printing rates in Paperlust's 2026 wedding invitation printing cost guide.

~$4,300

An illustrative figure, but one with the arithmetic shown rather than a scare number: a 5,000-unit run of custom printed folding-carton packaging costs roughly $0.86 a unit, which is $4,300 for the run (5,000 × $0.86), on top of about $300 in one-time plates and dies. Print a QR code onto that run and lose it, and reproducing the run is the same ~$4,300 again; the $300 is not in that figure. Larger runs and installed signage only go up.

Basis: the worked 5,000-unit costing in PackMojo's custom packaging cost guide. This replaces an unsourced $5,000–$40,000 range we could not stand behind.

"…enrolled millions of consumers in subscriptions without their consent, and knowingly made it difficult for consumers to cancel." The U.S. Federal Trade Commission, announcing a $2.5 billion settlement over subscription enrolment and cancellation, September 2025. Not a QR company: a named subscription case, with a price put on it. An anonymous forum quote used to sit here; we cut it because we couldn't trace it to a real post.

A "free" QR code can have a price. This one tells you upfront.

You pay once.
That's the whole point.

Pay once: $19 or $99, no monthly fee. The "free" app on our receipt is free right up until you need to edit the code. Then it's $228 or $637 a year, or the printed code stops. This one is $19, once. Need several? Packs of 3, 5 or 10 cost less per code. Need a page for it to open as well? That's $99, once. No plans, nothing monthly, and this is the whole pricing page.
