Dynamic vs Static QR Codes
Static QR Codes
Static QR codes encode the raw destination URL directly into the matrix pattern. Once printed, the destination cannot be modified, and scan telemetry cannot be gathered.
Dynamic QR Codes (KLIC Recommended)
Dynamic QR codes encode a short redirection identifier that routes through KLIC edge nodes.
- Editable Destination: Change target URL at any time without reprinting packaging or collateral.
- Scan Telemetry: Capture scan counts, device types, operating systems, and location heatmaps.
