Example: a coffee shop with one code for the menu, one for Google reviews and one for Instagram fits on Free. A fourth code, say for a seasonal flyer, is when you either upgrade or delete a code you no longer use. A paused code still counts toward the limit.

You buy Pro for more codes, vector files for print and deeper data. Read more about QR code tracking and SVG, PDF and EPS files for print.

If you cancel Pro

Cancel on the Plan page with Cancel subscription. Pro stays active until the end of the paid period, then your account moves to Free. There's no cancellation fee and no need to contact anyone. The terms of service, linked in the footer, set out what happens to codes when Pro ends.

linqr codes have no expiry date, and the Free plan has no trial that runs out. Here's what the Free plan includes on our QR code generator with no expiration page.

Payments and invoices

Payments are handled by Polar, the merchant of record for Pro: Polar takes the payment, handles sales tax or VAT and issues the invoice. Open the Polar portal from the Plan page with Invoices and card to download invoices, update your card and add your company name, VAT number and billing address.

You can cancel any time. If you're a consumer in the EU, you can withdraw within 14 days of purchase by writing to Polar through the billing portal or to us. Other refunds follow Polar's policies and the law. Questions about a payment? Contact us.

Monthly or yearly

Billed yearly, Pro works out to $3.33 a month, so you save $19.89 a year. Switch on the Plan page with Switch to yearly billing or Switch to monthly billing; your invoice shows how the change is billed. There's no one-time payment option and no per-scan fee.

Questions

Is there a free trial?

You don't need one: the Free plan never ends. You get 3 active dynamic codes with unlimited scans and link changes, logos and frames, and files up to 2048 px, with no credit card. Try everything there, then upgrade to Pro when you need more codes, vector files or full stats.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. Go to the Plan page and choose Cancel subscription. Pro stays active until the end of the period you've paid for, and then your account moves to Free. There's no fee and no need to contact anyone, and you can come back to Pro whenever you like.

Do my codes stop working if I cancel?

The terms of service, linked in the footer, set out what happens to codes when Pro ends. Pro itself stays active until the end of the period you've paid for. linqr codes have no expiry date, and the Free plan isn't a trial.

Is there a one-time payment option?

No. Pro is a subscription, billed monthly at $4.99 or yearly at $39.99. If you don't want a subscription at all, the Free plan has no trial and no card and gives you 3 active dynamic codes.

Do you charge per scan?

No, on any plan. A code can be scanned as many times as people like, and there are no traffic or scan fees. Bots and link previews in chat apps are left out of your stats, so sharing the link doesn't inflate your numbers. Free shows the last 30 days of stats and Pro shows 365.

How do I get an invoice?

Polar issues it, since Polar sells Pro and handles the tax. Open the Plan page and choose Invoices and card to reach the Polar portal. There you can download every invoice and add your company name, VAT number and billing address. Invoices from earlier periods are there too.

Does a paused code count toward the Free limit of 3 codes?

Yes. A paused code is still yours and can be resumed with one click, so it keeps its slot among your 3 active codes. To free a slot on the Free plan, delete a code you no longer need. Keep in mind that deleting is permanent: anyone who scans a printed copy sees that the code is no longer active.

Is Pro worth it if I only need one or two QR codes?

Usually not. The Free plan already covers 3 codes with unlimited scans and link changes, your logo and frames, SVG files and 30 days of stats, and it isn't a trial. Pro makes sense when you need a fourth code, PDF or EPS files for a print shop, 4096 px downloads, a year of stats or CSV export.

How do I switch Pro from monthly to yearly billing?

Open the Plan page and choose Switch to yearly billing; the same page has Switch to monthly billing to go back. Billed yearly, Pro costs $39.99, which works out to $3.33 a month and saves you $19.89 a year. Your invoice from Polar shows how the change is billed.

Which currency do I pay in?

On the English site, Pro is priced in US dollars: $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year. Polar, which sells Pro as the merchant of record, handles any sales tax or VAT that applies where you live. The final amount, with any tax, is shown on the checkout page before you pay and on your invoice.

What happens to my Pro subscription if I delete my account?

It is canceled right away, together with the account. All your codes are deleted too, so printed copies stop redirecting and show that the code is no longer active. If you only want to stop paying, choose Cancel subscription on the Plan page instead, and your account moves to the Free plan.

How does linqr pricing compare with other QR code generators?

linqr has one paid plan, Pro at $4.99 a month, and a Free plan with no trial and no card. Codes have no expiry date, and there are no per-scan fees. For side-by-side notes on other tools, see our QR code generator comparison.
