Frequently asked questions
How is QRCode Suite different from QR Tiger?
Both are hosted QR platforms. QRCode Suite differs on privacy and attribution: raw IPs are never stored, bot traffic is excluded from your counts, dynamic codes are unlimited from Pro rather than metered per code, and orders can be attributed back to a specific scan through the WooCommerce connector or the conversion API.
How is QRCode Suite different from Uniqode (Beaconstac)?
Uniqode targets enterprise teams with CRM integrations and dedicated account management. QRCode Suite is built for stores and agencies that want privacy-first defaults — raw IPs never stored, bot traffic excluded from counts — plus unlimited dynamic codes from Pro and scan-to-order revenue attribution, without enterprise pricing.
Is QRCode Suite a Linktree alternative?
The Link Hub feature is a Linktree alternative. Unlike Linktree, every click is tracked with hashed IPs and bot filtering, a matching QR code is generated for print, Business and Agency plans can serve the hub from your own custom domain, and clicks can be attributed through to orders.
Can QRCode Suite replace Bitly for QR codes?
For QR-led campaigns, yes. QRCode Suite provides dynamic QR codes with short redirects, print-ready exports, scan analytics and order attribution, with unlimited dynamic codes from Pro. Bitly is a general link-management platform priced around link volume and without QR-to-order attribution.
Is there a free QR code generator built into WordPress?
Most free QR code tools generate static codes with no analytics. QRCode Suite's Free plan includes 3 dynamic QR codes you can re-point after printing, a Link Hub, 500 tracked scans a month, 30-day analytics, bot filtering, and IP hashing.
