Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, direct answers about QRPoint, barcode standards, and print production.
Do QR codes generated on QRPoint ever expire?
No. Static QR codes encode your data directly into the matrix of black and white squares. Because there is no intermediate redirect server, the code works as long as the printed medium is readable.
Is QRPoint free for commercial use?
Yes, 100% free. You can use your downloaded QR codes for business cards, billboards, food packaging, books, and TV broadcasts with zero royalties or subscription fees.
Will there be a logo or watermark on my downloaded files?
No. All downloaded PNG, SVG, JPG, and PDF files are completely watermark-free.
What is the best file format for high-volume commercial printing?
Vector SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics). SVGs scale to infinite dimensions without any pixelation or blur, making them ideal for Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, and professional print shops.
Can I change the colors of my QR code without breaking scannability?
Yes, provided you maintain sufficient contrast. The foreground modules must be significantly darker than the background (contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1). Avoid light pastels on white.
Why should I use Error Correction Level H when adding a logo?
A central logo obscures up to 20% of the QR matrix. Error Correction Level H provides 30% mathematical data recovery, allowing the smartphone camera to reconstruct the obscured information seamlessly.
Are my WiFi passwords or contact details uploaded to your servers?
No. All static encoding and image rendering takes place directly in your local web browser sandbox using JavaScript. No payload strings are sent to our servers.
Do customers need to download a special app to scan my QR code?
No. All modern iPhone (iOS 11+) and Android (Android 9+) smartphones have native QR code recognition built directly into the standard camera app.
