Why every VASQR code is dynamic
Understand the difference between the Scan URL printed in the code and the Opens destination you control.
- Time
- 5 minutes
- VASQR makes one kind of QR code: dynamic. There is no static option.
- The printed pattern holds a short VASQR link — your VASQR address followed by /r/ and a short code. The short code is assigned when you create the QR and never changes. On each QR card this is shown as Scan URL.
- Opens, on the same card, is the destination you typed — your website, WhatsApp chat, review page, and so on. It is stored in VASQR, not in the printed pattern.
- Change Opens at any time with Edit. Codes that are already printed start sending people to the new destination on the next scan — no reprint needed.
- Every scan is checked by VASQR first. If your workspace's trial or plan is active and the code is Active, the visitor goes straight to Opens. If not, they see a short "This QR code is unavailable" page instead of your destination.
- Because every scan passes through VASQR, scans are counted in Analytics.
Good to know
- Printed codes pause if the trial ends or a plan lapses, and work again as soon as billing is active — the printed code itself never needs to change.
- When someone runs VASQR on their own computer for testing, the Scan URL shows a local address (such as localhost). That is only for local development — phones cannot reach it. Live workspaces show the public VASQR address.
