QR Code-generator.com

SUPER LAME. Free to make, but then the QR code WILL be disabled like three weeks later if you do not sign up for at least the basic plan, which costs 60 Euros per year!

Like everybody else on this page, the QR generator website is as corrupt as it gets!
Made a QR code, placed it on couple hundred flyers and just before the launch, the 14 day trial came to an end (wait, trial?!).

After contacting customer service they offered the Free Plan (flyers were already printed so I had no choice obviously) which gave me 100 scan statistics. Only to find out that half of the scans came from the other side of the world.?

Contacted customer service again and were connected to a *. My goodness, using a chat function as poorly as * did is a clear sign how badly this company is being runned. Partly answering my questions (without a solution of course) and writing every part as if it was a new conversation (Hi there. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know. Bla bla - DUDE WE'VE BEEN TALKING FOR ALMOST 2 HOURS!)

So it turns out their own website places scans (which they call 'security checks') so that at the end of the day half of your scans is not realible.

Rest to say that my experience with this company is scary bad! 1/5 stars is way to high.

They offer you a free QR code generator its the biggest lie on the Internet i made my code and it stopped working! You have to activate it for 35 dollars a month! When there are free options!

Alternatives use Shopify has a free tool or barcode monkey please use other companies instead because they suck like no tomorrow!

They make it impossible to see your codes will be deactivated in 14 days, once you spent all your money on packaging, flyers, designs whatever with the QR code you made, you'll see on the site a trial ending timer, once that ends your code doesn't work anymore, the company forces you to pay a (YEARLY) not monthly fee so they can get the most money out of you for your mistake of not double checking, so you get stuck in a spot where you either pay the money for the code or you wasted all your money on whatever the code was printed on

I do graphic design and ordered thousands of dollars worth of packaging and stuff for multiple clients, now I am stuck with this bill or trying to give this insane explanation to my clients of why they need to give me (MORE) money so the QR code continues to work, even though with a quick google search they'll see QR codes are free, this is the WORST business practice I've ever seen and these people should be jailed for stealing.

They reply to everyone saying blah blah its legit premium services, but these garbage scammers know exactly what they're doing, sneakiest company I've seen still up and running STAY AWAY!

I am really glad there are companies that offer free QR Codes. It's becoming a fantastic way to easily attract audiences to events.

Scammers luring people in for 'FREE' QR code - made 200 business card and found out it was inactivated. THIS IS COMPLETELY FALSE ADVERTISING. Show's how money hungry and selfish some people are.

Awesome! Love my qr code and how you can add a logo. It looks amazing and I recommend for everyone to get.

Hard to believe this scam company is affiliated with bit.ly, a service I have used for free for many years with positive experience. Nowhere in the onboarding steps to creating my first QR code did they explain that nothing is actually "free", a word they used liberally at every step of the way. You will make your QR code, not look back, and 12 days later they will email you to say that your codes will expire unless you pay a MINIMUM of $60/annually (for their most featureless, low-end plan), which is EXTORTION and BLACKMAIL. In the help files you will read that "Free Plans" (hyperlinked) allow 1 free Dynamic code and 5 static codes, but the link takes you to a Plans page which has no free plan - only 3 over-priced paid plans. If you have made the grave error of putting your "free" code into print anywhere, you will be forced to pay for it else it will be dead 3 days from now. Horrible, unethical, shameful. I encourage everyone who has used this service to report them to the FTC for false advertising and have them shut down, and a class-action suit should follow to compensate those who were forced to pay them any amount of money. I certainly will be reporting them immediately.

Amazing website it is free and user friendly try it you will not regret it made my life easier keep the good job up

So it says free and you think you will just have to put up with some advertising when you use the App? WRONG! You get a limited free trial period, then unless you pay, your beautiful QR codes no longer work.
You thought they were generating QR codes for the websites you input? Wrong again. If you still have the free trial, create one then look at all the little letters and symbols and see if they match. They don't. When people click on the QR Code, they are routed through a QR-Code-Generator.com server that only connects them to your link if you are a paid up subscriber.

PLEASE, IF YOU ARE ABOUT TO PRINT SOMETHING WITH THESE CODES ON YOUR PRINTED MATTER, DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO KEEP PAYING THIS COMPANY FOR AS LONG AS THIS PRINTED MATTER WILL BE AROUND. Business cards are kept for years... etc.

Really, this feels like legalized hostage taking, so DON'T GET ANYTHING PRINTED USING THESE CODES UNLESS YOU CONSIDER THE LONG TERM COST OF MAINTAINING A SUBSCRIPTION.

I Gave these guys one star. They can create all sorts of QR codes for all sorts of purposes and to you, this may be worth the lifetime subscription. For me, it's worth one star and a kick in the pants for not reading the fine print and many pages of Terms and conditions that may have shown me that I wasn't getting anything I wanted.

It was a pleasant surprise after receiving the printed edition from the printing house, when the code turned out to be not working

Unless you want to get stuck paying $120 a year dont get your qr code here. It is not free. They make you pay $120 after a week.

I tried to use their "free trial" until I was suddenly asked to purchase a year for $60.00 USD. They had promised a notification of pending renewal so it could be cancelled before their deadline. That "notification" never showed up! Hhowever, on the very next day after they tried to charge me for another year. The cr4edit card they had had been cancelled due to fraud against the card number (theirs?). Anyway, when the card charge was declined they began dunning me for payment of 60.00 Euros, not dollars ( over an 8%k increase over $60.00). They wasted no time insending emails for payment, because of the origi9nal "contract". They kept claiming I had signed a contract with them. The automatic renewal was not obvioius on their data entry screen, and they never sent a renewal notice, as part of this "contract". It is apparent to me that their business practice is to hook people who mean well in trying their code generator, and make money for doing nothing except sending a few emails to get you to pay.My advice to anyone considering this companyis: STAY AWAY FROM QR-CODE-GENERATOR.COM! They will try to scam you like they have me AND OTHERS.
