To change the URL for a QR code without affecting the previous QR code image, you would need to use a dynamic QR code generator or a link shortener software.
Here's how to do it:
Method 1 - Use Dynamic QR Code Generator
- Choose a QR code generator that supports dynamic QR codes, such as QR Tiger, QRStuff, or qr-code-generator.com.
- Create a dynamic QR code by following the steps provided by the QR code generator platform.
- Once your dynamic QR code is generated, download the QR code image and use it for your marketing materials.
- When you need to change the destination URL of the QR code, log in to your account on the QR code generator platform.
- Find the dynamic QR code you want to edit and update the URL as needed.
- Save your changes on the platform. The QR code image remains the same, but the destination URL has been updated.
By using a dynamic QR code, you can change the URL without altering the QR code image, allowing you to update your marketing materials or campaigns without reprinting or redistributing the QR code.
