Static codes only — no analytics, no link editing, codes die if you change URLs.
Start with Dynamic QR — from $9/monthCommon questions
Can Canva QR codes be edited after printing?
No — Canva generates static QR codes only. The destination URL is permanently encoded in the code. If it changes, you must reprint everything.
Does Canva track QR code scans?
No. Canva QR codes have zero analytics. You cannot see how many people scanned your code, where they are, or what device they used. Dynamic QR tracks all of this in real time.
When should I use Canva QR codes vs Dynamic QR?
Use Canva for one-time, throwaway QR codes on designs where you'll never need to update the link. Use Dynamic QR when you need scan analytics, the ability to change the destination later, or any printed materials with long lifespans.
Upgrade to Dynamic QR
Edit links anytime. Track every scan. One flat price — no scan limits.
