Static vs dynamic QR: the difference that matters

Static is cheap and simple; dynamic lets you change the destination and measure scans.

Static

Points straight at an unchanging URL; great for stable menus and simple personal cards.

If the URL changes, you need a new print.

Dynamic

Print once and route through a short link you can update — ideal for campaigns and stores.

NFC cards follow a similar logic: fixed chip, living page.
