A QR code generator for codes you can update after printing

Nexy creates a QR code from a short nexy.be link instead of your full URL. That means you can change where the code goes after it is printed, and see how many times it is used.

How to create a QR code

  1. Create a free Nexy account and add a new link with the URL you want people to reach.
  2. Turn on the QR code option for that link.
  3. Open the link in your dashboard and view its QR code.
  4. Download the code as a PNG and add it to your design.

Why an editable QR code helps

A QR code that contains your full URL can never change. If the page moves, every printed copy is out of date. A Nexy QR code points to your short link, so you update the destination once in your dashboard and every printed code follows it.

Good uses for a trackable QR code

  • Restaurant menus that change with the season.
  • Posters and flyers: give each location its own code to compare them.
  • Product packaging that links to manuals or support pages.
  • Business cards that point to a profile you can change later.
  • Event signage for schedules and registration.

See how your QR codes perform

Each scan opens your short link, so it appears in that link's analytics with the date, approximate location, device and browser. Scans and ordinary clicks are counted together, so create a separate link for print if you want to measure a QR code on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Is Nexy free?

Yes, Nexy is free to use right now. You just need an account. We plan to offer free and paid plans in future, and we will tell you the price and terms before you are charged anything.

Do Nexy QR codes expire?

Nexy doesn't put an expiry date on QR codes. A code keeps working while its short link is active, so it stops working if you delete the link or your account.

Can I change where a QR code goes after printing it?

Yes. Edit the destination of the short link in your dashboard. The printed code stays the same and sends people to the new page.

What format are the QR codes?

You can download them as PNG images. They use rounded dots with the Nexy logo in the centre. Custom colours, logos and other file formats aren't available at the moment.

Do I need an account to make a QR code?

Yes. The account holds the short link behind the code, which is what makes it editable and trackable.
