MakeTheQR vs Uniqode: common questions

It depends on the job. MakeTheQR is built around making a whole batch of codes at once - one per table, bin or room - and giving each one a scan count on a page you can share. Billing is annual only and the primary path is a booked demo, which does not fit someone who needs forty table tents printed on Thursday. Scan limits reset annually rather than monthly. If that gap is not one you feel, Uniqode is a good product and this comparison says so.

Unlimited static codes only - dynamic codes require a paid plan. For comparison, our free plan covers up to 15 codes per batch, with no card and no advertising shown to the people who scan your codes.

Static codes cannot be moved by anyone - the destination is inside the printed pattern, so codes already printed keep working exactly as they are and are unaffected by what you use next. Dynamic codes are different: they resolve through the provider's domain, so a code printed through Uniqode keeps depending on Uniqode. Anything you have not printed yet can simply be recreated here from the same list.
