Hey team! UPDATED: There are only a few options now that allow you to use the QR code for free. For those that are struggling to use the free plan. I have added an updated free QR code video guide in the description for you to check out.
I was just watching a documentary of the Springbok tour to NZ in 1956..when all of a sudden i got your latest video notification :) Good on u mate. Keep up the good work. Enjoyed this video
Wonderful thank you so much I will be QRing my brains out tomorrow for a optical place I work for on reviews rebates and online appts and you made me feel smart 😂 and to confidently create and inspired me in under 10 mins to turn around a company a lil behind the times and hope it goes further than our store. Be back with updates. BRAVO 👏🏼
Thanks for adding the comment below Stewart. I started to get it all done only to find out in order to have a logo, I have to pay. It is too bad you can't edit the title of your video. Thanks for the time.
@@StewartGauld I ended up using the supposed free option and ended up with a notice 14 days later saying that it's expired and I need to pay. This is a scam
Hello Stewart, I wish say thanks for making this Vid. I'm a young UA-camr that wants to find a way to promote my other social media platforms without make several links to fill up UA-cam Description.
Hey mate, You can still use certain QR code’s for free. The premium QR code’s you can create for free too! Just a neo before the free trial period ends. Cheers!
@@StewartGauld Yes there are free QR codes out there, but this site doesn't offer them. To call this free because you can "create it" and use it for 15 days is misleading. It's especially deceptive when you take into account that you're suggesting people get their business cards printed with these redirect QR codes. - This video is personally costing me $250 for reprinting stickers and packaging tape, but I'm just glad I caught it. Thankfully my 15 day free trial is nearly up and the marketing emails started before I sent out the QRs to the public.
@@larsedstrom49 Hey, I hear you and have the same concern. I am about to order my business cards and numerous yard signs, which are costly, and Can't afford to mislead the public to a QR code that does not work, plus having to re-order biz cards signs would be a HUGE BIG MESS. Hope to get some insight from you on how to get a lasting QR. Thanks!
@@larsedstrom49 Agreed. Not sure if he's sponsored or not but he should have also been more upfront and clear about how to get it "FREE". People will be spending a lot of money printing it on things and now having to pay extra to keep the QR code active. If the software is NOT clear about this, then @Stewart Gauld shouldn't be recommending this site for that. Obviously some people have already been tricked.
Im actually creating a kdp book. The photos are in color. This color process would have made it much much more expensive to print in the KDP book. Instead, i am creating links to where people can view the photos to the book and pay as they see the photos. Unfortunately, i bet you did not decide to describe how we can follow metrics. Maybe your next video?
Hey mate, You may have used a premium option. In this case you just wont be able to create more. However, you can still use the ones you have already created.

Does one need to have an actual website to use a QR Code ? I am a small business owner on SM and I do not wish have a website. Please enlighten me. Thank you so much .
I’m struggling too. I use only standard choices with the x and when the code is generating it asks me to sign in for a 14 day trial. Without sign in, I can’t get the code.

hi, great video. can a static qr code be used to store a video that i can watch without an internet connection?

Great video! Big thank you!

To make a business card or flyer, the Vector sign up option is a must then?
Hey mate,
Not at all. Just download the jpg and insert into your design. Just like I share on this video.
Thank you for the content. Can a QR code be scanned off a vinyl decal on a van? From another car?
Hey Murph,
Great question. I'm not 100% sure. I don't see what it wouldn't work. As long as its big and clear enough.
Very Good!!!, simple with an educative powerful skill explained. Thank you, Steward, to open the door to these new technics.🙋
You are very welcome Oscar.
Thank you
Welcome!
thanks alot great info
Welcome!
Nice video… Straight to the point…
Hey Mike,
Thanks mate!
Great help
Thanks!
If I wanted to add my QR code to a word document would I need to use vector?
You can so that by just using the downloaded JPG or PNG
Thank you so much!!!
Welcome!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
how to setup and make a qr code for website product page from on screen QR code in your UA-cam video?
Hey! just add your UA-cam link to the URL section.
How do I assign a different QR code to items to bid on? Thanks
Hey mate,
Just link that particular product.
Another great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can you do that with wix or word press
Hey mate,
You sure can. You mean link to your Wix or WordPress?
However, the QR code doesn't remain free on that site. It's a 14 day free trial. Am I missing something?
Hey mate,
Make sure you don't select a premium option.
@@StewartGauld Hey, I don’t think I did. It said it was free, and I used it and I received a notice that my 14 days had expired.
Yes its a scam , only valid for 14 days
@@Knowledgekorner9 You must have used premium options. Make sure you only use the free options and it is free.

BEWARE!! This is not for free. The site in this tutorial cost $16 per month after you have your initial free trial.

You can still use certain QR code’s for free.

Are you using anything now for your QR code

Hey valley girl,
We will look into this on an updated video. Cheers!
Please how do you create a QR code that allows you to link payment info for a on profit or business? Thank you
Hey mate,
I will look into this.
So I just used this and I got an email saying my free trial is up and told me to select a package that I have to pay to keep it active. I’m confused 😭
Hey mate,
You may have used a premium option. In this case you just wont be able to create more. However, you can still use the ones you have already created.
there are not free misleading video
Great 👍🏿 video do u have more information about this
What would you like to know?
I was starting a matcha lemonade tea just needed an Idea of how to market it on the various sites Facebook IG etc.
I tried this but they still make you pay for an annual subscription for your qr code after a 14 day free trial, otherwise they disable it
Hey mate,
This is only if you select the premium options when creating your QR code.
They get you with the "sign up now" pop up, the download takes about 10 seconds to pop up on my mac. It is definitely not instant.
@@StewartGauld they actually do disabled the free one as well all mine are disabled I had them for about a year
That’s a lie. They just described my FREE code after 14 days because I didn’t pay
Hi there! will the QR barcode stays active for a whole year after being generated? great video tho!
Hey! Yes it will always be working!
@@StewartGauld I found random websites such as links shortened and others do not guarantee such generated products stay active "working". I am getting ready to order some business yard signs which are costly and concerning about generating a QR for my website that it suddenly go away and stuck with numbers of yard signs that QR does not work. Please help address my concerns, hopefully, hear from your soon. Thanks!
THERE ARE NOT FREE!
can i link this to my google business?
Hey Demarie,
You sure can!
very nice
Thanks!
thank you !
Welcome!
Does one need to have an actual website to use a QR Code ? I am a small business owner on SM and I do not wish have a website. Please enlighten me. Thank you so much .
Hey mate,
No you do not need a website to use QR codes.
What are the things that will show after the scan
Your added URL will show up for the recipient to click.
Is there any fees to be paid after the free trial ends?
Yes, therefore, I would use Canva instead.
How can I set it up with apple pay
You will have to use another software for this.
Thank you Stewart. Well done. This made it so easy for me :)
You are very welcome!
Thanks
Welcome
Hello .. new to this... is there a charge for people clicking on your QR code?
Hey Benny,
A charge? No charge.
What if you don’t have a website and just want to add it to your personal items
You can do that too.
If I download the free version will it still work on business cards?
Hey mate, Yes it sure will!
@@StewartGauld thanks !
I’m struggling too. I use only standard choices with the x and when the code is generating it asks me to sign in for a 14 day trial. Without sign in, I can’t get the code.
Hey Kim,
Have you tried the other method we added in the description?
@@StewartGauld I saw that you wrote about an alternative way but could not find the link or description.
It s not free now
Hey mate, yes it's still free. Just make sure you don't use the blue highlighted options.
hi, it downloads a qr code but when I scan it it opens an example not redirect to my link
Hey mate,
Make sure you put your correct link in. You shouldn't have this issue. Maybe try the precess again and see if the issue happens again.
What are annual charges..
Hey,
Depending what plan you go for. We not recommend using Canva for creating free QR codes.
I tried to do it bus when I scan the barcode it just says that is a sample… what am I doing wrong ?
That is odd. Make sure you follow the step we take in this video. Otherwise try using the updated tutorial we have linked in the description.
