A QR code should outlive the page it points at. Here is the whole model — the fixed code identity, the editable destination, the safety checks, and what happens when a plan ends.
How it works
A dynamic QR code points at a short link you own instead of at the destination itself. That one detail is what keeps a code you have already shared editable.
Step 1
Add a destination. We check it before it goes live and give you a short link you keep.
Step 2
Style the code in the studio, then export PNG or SVG for screens, packaging or signage.
Step 3
On a plan that includes destination editing, repoint the same code at a new page or offer. The code itself never changes.
Continuity
Menus, packaging and signage stay in the world for years. For an issued SweQR-hosted dynamic code, the printed code and short link stay the same while you update where they point.

Issued once, stays the sameCancel and your codes stay put. SweQR-hosted issued codes keep resolving to their last saved destination; creating and editing pause until you subscribe again. Customer-owned custom hostnames have their own serving and continuity policy. Normal safety and lifecycle rules still apply.
Static vs dynamic
A static QR code carries the destination inside the pattern, which makes it self-contained but fixed. A dynamic QR code is a separate paid managed identity whose destination you can update later.
Cannot be repointed once it is printed — the destination lives in the artwork.
Trust & safety
A QR code is scanned by people who cannot see where it leads. SweQR treats the destination as something to verify, not just store.
Every new destination is validated on save, so a broken or risky link doesn't quietly reach the people scanning your code.
If a destination looks unsafe or gets reported, the code can be held rather than sending scanners somewhere harmful.
A destination that was fine on day one can change later, so saved destinations are re-verified rather than trusted once.
Sign-in is protected, and internal access to customer accounts is role-restricted, two-factor protected and recorded.
Use cases
Wherever a code is hard to replace once it is out there, the destination needs to stay editable.
Table tents and printed menus stay in use while the menu, prices and specials behind the code keep changing.
Ship a box today, and still be able to update instructions, warranty info or reorder pages a year later.
One poster run can point at pre-registration, then the schedule, then the recap — without new artwork.
Keep a card or window sign accurate when your booking link, site or contact page moves.
Board and window displays can be repointed to the current listing, viewing form or new location page.
Group codes per campaign, repoint them when the offer ends, and see which pieces get scanned.
FAQ
A dynamic QR code encodes a short link you keep, instead of the final destination. Because the pattern points at that short link, you can change where it leads without changing the code. Dynamic codes are a paid, managed SweQR product; new shared codes are issued on qrswe.link.
Yes, for a managed SweQR Dynamic code on a plan that includes destination editing. Edit the destination in SweQR and later scans use the new page after any required safety check and normal edge propagation.
Already-issued codes are not deleted, moved or rewritten. SweQR-hosted codes keep resolving to their last saved destination; paid capabilities such as creating new codes, editing destinations and analytics pause until you subscribe again. Customer-owned custom hostnames follow their separate serving and continuity policy. Normal safety and lifecycle rules still apply.
Scan allowances come from the plan you choose and are shown on the pricing page, taken straight from our live plan catalog rather than marketing copy.
SweQR includes a free static generator too, and a static code is genuinely useful when the destination is fixed: the content sits in the pattern and later scans never travel through SweQR. A SweQR Dynamic code is the paid alternative — it separates the code identity from the destination, so one code can outlive several links.
Custom domains are available on the plans that include them; the exact number per plan is listed in the pricing comparison.
On an eligible plan you can serve your dynamic codes from a verified hostname you control, such as qr.example.com, instead of the shared qrswe.link host. The benefit is a branded hostname and control over that hostname. It requires DNS setup and verification, and it is not a guarantee of better SEO, security, blacklist reputation or link deliverability.
The static QR generator and design studio are free and need no account: style a real, scannable QR code and download PNG or SVG. That is a static code, so its link is fixed in the artwork. Managed dynamic QR codes — their own permanent SweQR link, an editable destination and scan analytics — are part of the paid plans.
No. The free static QR generator needs neither a card nor an account. When you subscribe to a paid plan, payments and invoices are handled by our payment provider, Paddle, as merchant of record, and the exact total including any tax is shown before you pay.
