Digital Designer / Digital Marketing Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/27/2026 "Hidden White-Label Costs and Unhelpful AI-Only Support" 0.5/5 What do you like best about QRCG? Sounded great on paper until we set up the features we wanted and then found out after paying for the "Pro" plan that we needed the "Enterprise" plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? Sounded great on paper until we set up the features we wanted and then found out after paying for the "Pro" plan that we needed the "Enterprise" plan to get the White label features. Ok, we get the green light and then we can't even make contact except for some crappy AI chat bot that is completely worthless and wastes our time. We already paid and we get emails telling us to upgrade! What is going on here? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? Still trying to set it up properly. We get privacy errors when using the custom shortened URLS. We want our own subdomain, but apparently we need the Enterprise plan? You shouldn't even make that feature available unless you actually pay for the "Enterprise" plan. We need to get this up and running and now we can't even get the original guy we were talking to respond to emails. Needless to say, after wasting our time and spending hundreds of dollars, we're looking for other options. I don't know how we're going to do it, but we will complain to the Better Business Bureau and any other customer service entities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I thought it was great to generate attractive QR codes quickly an easily until i learned that I would have to pay $119/year forever to keep those codes working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? At no time during the purchase process did QR Code Generator PRO mention that their codes would expire at the end of a year unless we kept paying and paying. It was not until the next payment came due that they warned us that all of our codes would expire unless we kept paying. Now, we have to throw away all our collateral and print new - or pay them forever. Isn't that called "hostage taking?!" Run! Do NOT use this tool! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? It is NOT benefiting our organization. It is costing us thousands of dollars to get rid of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I thought it was simple to use (until I got to the deceitful checkout and customer service experience). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? I used them for a project, it was not nearly as clear as it should have been that my QR code would deactivate after a few days. When I realized this (too late), I went to purchase a 1 month subscription, only to find I was billed annually, another thing that wasn't nearly as clear as it should have been doing checkout. This is a company that clearly tries to convert paid users by obscuring their pricing and policies. When I reached out to customer support, they refused to downgrade me to a monthly plan, issue a refund, or make any exception whatsoever. There are a lot of QR code generators out there, I strongly recommend you choose another option and do not bother with any of the free or paid services from this company. It's not a place that cares about their customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? I needed a QR code quickly and inexpensively. This solution hoodwinked me into thinking it could provide that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I 100% regret inadvertently believing I could create a FREE QR code only to have it deactivated in 14 days. I should know this was Bait to Switch for an expensive product. Following deactivation, I believed I was activating my QR Code for a total of $9.99 only to find out I purchased a $120 product. I immediately tried to cancel the purchase but there is not a phone number and the AI Bot was not helpful. Through various emails with "customer service" I learned I paid $120 to create 2 QR Codes. And, there are absolutely no refunds ever given and no exceptions to this policy (insert BIG red flag). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? While this very expensive lesson cost me a lot and took supply money away from my students, I will continuing sharing/educating others in hopes that no other educator takes the BAIT and pays dearly as I did! $120 for 1 User and 2 QR Codes. That is $60 per QR Code. There are FREE and appropriately priced QR Code Generators for educators who are trying to meet the multifaceted needs of students and stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? My case has been "SOLVED" per the email I received. At this point, I am focused on educating other "One time users" such as teachers so they do not lose money unintentionally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Minimum Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? None, I can generate a code elsewhere for much less and they don't offer any printing.

Erm, nothing? What they do for a fee (undisclosed fee!) can be done just as well for free elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? They do not inform you up front that the QR codes you are generating will seem to work fine for 2 weeks and then will be disabled. Those 2 weeks are just enough time to get everything printed off and distributed and then they hold you hostage. They will claim that they have a free plan, but they never tell you that there is a difference between dynamic and static codes and the way to choose a static code is very effectively hidden - the end result is that you are unable to switch to the free plan unless you abandon all the codes you used (printed, distributed) and create new ones. I thought I could switch to a paid plan for a month and at least the majority of the scans of my now-printed-and-distributed codes would be valid, but, NO, you can't sign up for a month. You have to sign up for a year and there's no partial refund even if I cancel after a day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? It is causing me major headaches. I am working for a non-profit with a very limited budget. These QR codes were not considered in our budgeting at all. All of a sudden our whole print run is wasted because these guys pulled their hostage-taking game and are holding my print run hostage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, after this, nothing. It is no easier to use than QRCodeMonkey, which is very straightforward with its upgrading options and has all the same capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? There are two different kinds of QR to generate, dynamic and static. Static is free, dynamic is not. It is not clear when you enter the website that if you create a dynamic QR code, you will lose access to this QR code unless you pay for a subscription. I received a notification about receiving a scan on my code and clicked the link to check out the website and came to find that my QR code will be expiring in 10 days. I was confused as to how I had made this mistake and panicked because we had printed this QR code on signage, so I tried to create another one to see where I messed up. When creating a QR code, you are taken to a landing page where you can select what you want the QR code for (website, social media, etc) UNDERNEATH this list, in faint, tiny writing, it says static codes and there is a little plus button you hit to bring up the dropdown menu for static QR codes. It is purposefully hidden this way so you will miss it and select a dynamic code instead. Nowhere on this page does it explain the difference between a dynamic and static code and that you will eventually have to pay for one over the other. This website and process is incredibly unclear and misleading. There is nowhere on the website to even contact anybody with a complaint. This appears to be a legitimate business but feels incredibly scammy with the way they basically trap you into using the dynamic codes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? They have only created panic and a headache for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can also create dynamic QRs which can come in handy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? They basically set traps everywhere so you Upgrade Oh, already have some QR codes? We made them Dynamic so you can only use them if you pay our Annual Plan. Nothing worse than a SAAS that depends on tricking their users into paying. And if you really need those QRs you can't even pay a monthly subscription. Nope, they only offer an annual Plan. You'll end up printing your QR codes again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering QRCG: You are better off skipping this one. I'll have to look for alternatives and redo all the work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? I needed a reliable place to print some QR codes for our Demos. Since they'll expire after the "Free Trial" I didn't asked for, I can only tell you there are no benefits. Unless you want to pay USD 1500. In that case, this may be the software you are looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was easy to get set up and use, and it worked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? After receiving zero warning about an automatic renewal approaching (which they automatically enroll you in when you sign up), I asked politely for a refund and let their support know I would no longer be using the service and did not intend to renew for another year. Then I received a reply with zero understanding, zero empathy, and zero compassion. They stated they sent a reply 30 days prior which they absolutely did not. As many of the others in this forum have stated, they lie about sending a notification and just charge you. I cannot recommend highly enough that you go with a different QR code service. They should really be ashamed of themselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering QRCG: Make sure to deselect the auto renew function when you sign up, otherwise they'll autorenew you in a year without giving you any warning.

Field and digital marketing manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/24/2022 "Its a scamming company who charge you even after cancellation" 0/5 What do you like best about QRCG? They did what they say they do, we were able to create QR codes and share across, which has been available for free as well at many websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about QRCG? We contacted them on Nov 2021 to cancel our subscription, as we no longer required their services. In Jan 2022 we were charged for the whole year and upon sharing the communications to their customer services agent Sana Mahmaudi, she refused the refund straight stating sorry we won't be able to refund you - she had zero knowledge of the issue and hasn't responded since I tried reaching for further clarification. The whole image of the company has been destroyed with simple tricks she played with us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is QRCG solving and how is that benefiting you? We wanted to get a platform that will help us generate QR codes, although there were many free versions available we wanted to try QR Code Generator Pro - There has been no difference between the paid and free version we decided to cancel and turns out these people don't refund you even if you cancel and get a confirmation email for cancellation. And if you protest clarification, they simply ignore your conversation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Validated ReviewerIncentivizedSource: G2 invite ## Questions about QRCG?
