Getting Started with QR Dex

QR Dex, built and managed by the businesscards.io team, is a simple and user-friendly platform that allows you to create, manage, and track QR codes effectively.

Creating a Free QR Code

Creating a free QR code with QR Dex is straightforward. On the homepage, you'll find a form where you can generate a free QR code. Simply enter the URL you want to convert into a QR code and click the "Generate QR Code" button. Your QR code will be created instantly.

<aside> ⚠️ Please note that free QR codes will last forever as long as the urls they are pointing to are still available, they do not come with tracking or storage capabilities and cannot be modified in the future. If you wish to have tracking, customization options, and the ability to update the URL of a QR code in the future, consider signing up for an account. 🤩 You don't need to make any payment to use the free QR code feature.

Styling your QR code to match your brand or initiative

With QR Dex, you can style your QR code to match your brand, initiative, or event. We offer the ability to change the color and shape of your QR code. Plus, you can upload your logo or an image to place in the center of the QR code. This way, your QR code will not only be functional, but also visually appealing and in line with your branding.

Updating where your QR Code points to

With QR Dex, you never have to worry about misprints or errors. QR codes are often added to printed materials, and it's only human to make mistakes. If you've already printed or shared your QR code and realize there's an error in the URL it points to, don't worry. You can always update the destination of your QR code from your dashboard. This feature allows you to correct any mistakes at any point in the life of the QR code, saving you the time and cost of reprinting.
