Frequently asked questions
How is QRCode Suite different from QR Tiger?
QR Tiger is a cloud SaaS. QRCode Suite is a WordPress plugin — scan data stays on your own server, and WooCommerce orders can be attributed to specific QR codes. QR Tiger does not offer native WooCommerce integration or first-party analytics storage.
How is QRCode Suite different from Uniqode (Beaconstac)?
Uniqode targets enterprise teams with CRM integrations and dedicated account management. QRCode Suite is built for WordPress and WooCommerce stores that need self-hosted analytics and revenue attribution without enterprise pricing.
Is QRCode Suite a Linktree alternative?
The Link Hub feature is a Linktree alternative hosted on your own WordPress domain. Unlike Linktree, your Link Hub is on your branded domain, scan data stays on your server, and it integrates with WooCommerce.
Can QRCode Suite replace Bitly for QR codes?
For WordPress stores, yes. QRCode Suite provides dynamic QR codes with custom short redirects, analytics, and WooCommerce integration — all hosted on your own server. Bitly is a link management platform where scan data is stored on Bitly infrastructure.
Is there a free QR code generator built into WordPress?
Most free QR code tools generate static codes with no analytics. QRCode Suite's Free plan includes 1 dynamic QR code, a Link Hub, 30-day analytics, bot filtering, and IP hashing — all managed from your WordPress dashboard.
