Frequently Asked Questions

Can I create a single-use QR code?
Yes. Set a scan limit of 1 to create a one-time-use QR code. After the limit is reached, scanners see a configurable expired page. This is useful for event tickets, exclusive offers, or limited promotions.
What happens when a scan limit is reached?
When the scan limit is reached, the QR code stops redirecting to the destination. Scanners see a clean expired page. You can increase the limit or remove it from your dashboard at any time.
Can I combine scan limits with time expiration?
Yes. Set both a scan limit and a time-based expiration on the same QR code. The code deactivates when either condition is met — whichever comes first.
