Free tool
Free QR code generator
Deeplink (deeplink.in) lets you turn any URL into a QR code you can download as a PNG. For posters, packaging, and WhatsApp campaigns that need scan analytics, create a smart link first, then encode that Deeplink URL.
Create your QR code
Paste a website URL, app store link, or Deeplink smart link. The code is generated in your browser.
Enter a URL and generate a QR code. Nothing is stored until you create a Deeplink account and save a smart link.

How to track QR scans with Deeplink
- Create a free Deeplink account. Sign up and add your app with a web fallback URL.
- Create a smart link. Set the path, optional UTM parameters, and the destination you want after a scan.
- Generate the QR for that link. Use this page with your Deeplink URL, or generate the QR from the dashboard link screen.
- Read the analytics. Review clicks, installs, and click-to-install conversion for that link after people scan the code.
Frequently asked questions
Does a free QR code track scans?
No. A QR code that points at a normal website URL only opens that URL. Scan counts, locations, and device data need a tracked link behind the code. Create a Deeplink account to host a smart link, then generate a QR for that link.
What should I put in the QR code for an app campaign?
Use a Deeplink smart link URL, not only the App Store or Play Store listing. A smart link can open the app when it is installed, fall back to the store or web, and record clicks and installs in analytics.
Can I change the destination after printing?
Only if the URL inside the code still exists and you control where it routes. A Deeplink smart link lets you update the destination in the dashboard without reprinting. A QR that encodes a fixed website URL cannot be edited on paper.
