What is the difference between a Static and Dynamic QR code?

Static QR Codes can't be changed once they are created. The actual destination website URL is placed directly into the QR code and can’t be modified. These are, for example, email and text Codes, which don’t gather any tracking metrics. Dynamic QR codes are the natural evolution of static QR codes. First and most importantly because they are linked to a unique url which then redirects to the actual content of the URL. Dynamic QR codes also result in a less dense QR code image that is more reliable to scan.

This means that you can start by linking a QR code to your website and then change it to your social media profiles. Without ever having to print the QR code again. That is why dynamic QR codes are in essence recyclable. But that's not all, if you want to know how many times your QR codes were scanned to view your menu or where or with what devices dynamic QR codes are the way to go. The URL will track all the statistical data which you can easily access and review.
