Alternative

A ME-QR alternative with no ads between scan and destination

ME-QR’s free plan includes dynamic codes, but every code carries ads and only Premium removes them. After cancelling, codes keep working. A qrkept.com editable code is €9 once and never shows an ad. Launch price €6.30 until 22 November 2026, then €9.

What happens to your code when the trial or plan ends?

The FAQ says you can keep using your codes after cancelling and that ad-free use needs Premium, which implies ads return; the page does not say so outright. The terms move a cancelled user to the free plan terms. Whether you can still edit the destination after a downgrade is not confirmed by us. (ME-QR pricing FAQ)

When to stay with ME-QR

If ads on a free code are acceptable for a hobby or a test, stay with ME-QR’s free plan. Once a code sits on a menu, a sign or an official letter, ads on it are a cost; that is when a one-time price is cheaper.
