QR codes for your short links
Every short link you create in EditURLink comes with a QR code you can download and print. Because the code points at your short link, you can change the destination later without reprinting anything.
Four steps to a printable code
- Paste your long web address and choose a short name.
- Create the link.
- Choose Show QR code.
- Download the SVG and drop it into your design.
Where these QR codes earn their keep
- Posters and shop windows.
- Flyers and leaflets.
- Café and restaurant menus.
- Event programmes, stands and tickets.
- Packaging, receipts and business cards.
Print once, redirect for years
This is the practical advantage of editable short links: a printed run of 5,000 flyers is not wasted when the page behind it moves, because you change the destination rather than the code.
Keep the code scannable
- Leave clear white space around it.
- Print it at least 2cm across, larger for posters read from a distance.
- Keep it dark on a light background.
- Add a short line of text telling people what they get by scanning.
Questions people ask
- What format is the QR code?
- An SVG file, which stays sharp at any size — ideal for print as well as screens.
- Does the QR code expire?
- No. It encodes your short link, and redirects are unlimited, so a printed code keeps working.
- Can I change where a printed QR code leads?
- Yes. Edit the short link's destination and the same printed code sends people to the new page.
- Are scans counted?
- A scan opens your short link, so it is recorded like any other click in your analytics. EditURLink cannot tell a scan apart from a tap on the same link.
