Does the QR code expire?

No. The content is encoded directly in the symbol, so it works as long as the target link works. Nothing runs through our servers.

Not with this generator, by design. Tracking would require a redirect service and would collect personal data.

How small can a QR code be printed?

As a rule of thumb keep it at least 2 × 2 cm and add a quiet zone of four modules on every side.

QR Code Generator

Most free QR services route your code through their own short link, so they can count every scan – and switch off the code later. Here the payload goes straight into the symbol: no redirect, no expiry, no analytics.
