## Do you actually need to pay for a QR code?

You don't need to pay if

You need a fixed link that will never change, a website, a social profile, a Wi-Fi password, a vCard. A static QR code encodes that directly and works forever with no account and no fee.

You need to buy one if

You need to edit the destination after printing, track scan analytics, or download bulk vector files for a large print run. That's what the $49 one-time purchase covers, and it's genuinely a purchase, not a subscription disguised as one. Most other QR platforms use "buy" to mean "start paying monthly."
