Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about XeonQR codes, plans, tracking, and account management.
General & Free vs Pro
Is XeonQR really free forever?+
Yes. Free accounts include unlimited static downloads plus 3 dynamic QR codes (editable links + scan tracking). Pro expands your limit to 50 slots and removes ads.
What is the difference between static and dynamic QR codes?+
Static codes put your content in the pattern and work offline forever. Dynamic codes use a XeonQR short link so you can change the destination and see scan analytics (3 included free, up to 50 on Pro).
Can I track scans without paying?+
Yes! Free accounts include 3 dynamic QR codes with scan tracking and editable destinations. Pro expands your limit to 50 dynamic slots.
Dynamic QR Codes & Analytics
What is a dynamic QR code?+
A dynamic QR stores a short XeonQR link (like /r/…) instead of your final page. When someone scans, we send them to your destination and count the scan. You can change where it goes later without reprinting.
What is a static QR code?+
A static QR bakes your content into the black-and-white pattern. It works forever, even offline. You cannot change the destination or see scan counts after you print it.
How do I create a dynamic QR on XeonQR?+
Sign in, open the studio, enter your content, and turn on tracking (Pro). Download the code and print it. Manage destinations and scan stats anytime from your dashboard.
Is dynamic QR free on XeonQR?+
Free accounts include 3 dynamic QR codes with scan tracking and editable links. Pro unlocks up to 50 dynamic slots and removes ads.
How many dynamic QR codes do I get with Pro?+
Pro includes up to 50 active dynamic codes. Paused codes still use a slot. Delete one to free a slot for a new code.
Can I edit the destination after printing?+
Yes on Pro dynamic codes. Update the destination in the dashboard. The printed short-link pattern stays the same, so stickers and flyers keep working.
Do dynamic QR codes expire?+
No. XeonQR does not shut redirects off after a trial — see our Never Expire promise. Pro removes ads. Older Free-era dynamic codes may show a short ad page after 10 scans.
Can I switch a static QR to dynamic later?+
Not the same print. The pattern is fixed. Create a new dynamic code on Pro and replace the stickers — or start with dynamic before you print.
UTM Campaign Builder
What is a UTM QR code?+
It is a QR that opens a web link with small tracking tags added (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, and optional term/content). Those tags help tools like Google Analytics credit a visit to a flyer, email, or ad.
Does XeonQR replace Google Analytics?+
No. XeonQR counts scans on Pro dynamic codes (place, device, and similar). UTM tags ride on the destination URL for your website or ad analytics after the person lands.
Can I use the UTM builder for free?+
Yes. Build tagged URLs, preview them, and download static QR codes on Free. Tracked multi-variant campaigns (editable short links + dashboard rollups) need Pro.
Should each placement get its own QR?+
Yes if you care which print drove the scan. Each Pro campaign variant uses one dynamic slot and its own short link, so you can compare window vs counter vs flyer without sharing one code across all of them.
Billing & Subscriptions
How do I cancel my XeonQR Pro subscription?+
Sign in, open Dashboard, then Manage subscription. That opens the Paddle customer portal. Cancel there to stop future renewals.
When does Pro access end after I cancel?+
Canceling stops renewals only. You keep Pro until the end of the period you already paid for, unless you ask Paddle for an earlier refund.
Can I get a refund after canceling?+
Refunds go through Paddle (our merchant of record). Use Paddle support or the link in your receipt email. See our refund policy for details.
What happens to my QR codes after I cancel?+
Your codes stay. When the paid period ends you return to Free: you cannot create new dynamic codes, but existing dynamic links keep working with Free ads on scans and downloads. Static downloads stay unlimited.
Can I resubscribe later?+
Yes. From Dashboard or Pricing, pick Pro monthly or yearly anytime. Your existing codes are still there when you come back.
