The Evergreen Promise
Other “free” QR sites quietly give you a trial code that dies when the trial ends, then charge you to bring your printed menus back. We think that’s wrong, so we promise the opposite, in writing.
Read the promise- Free codes never expire. Static codes hold your data directly. They work even if we vanish.
- Paid codes are never held hostage. Cancel Pro and your dynamic codes keep working, frozen on their last link.
- Every design is scan-tested before you download it.
- No cookies, no trackers, no selling data.
How EvergreenQR compares
What you get for free here, versus what’s typical on popular “free” QR sites.
| EvergreenQR | Typical “free” QR site | |
|---|---|---|
| Codes keep working after a trial or cancellation | Yes, always | Often deactivated |
| Signup required to download | No | Often |
| SVG, PDF and EPS vector files | Free | Often paid |
| Scan test before download | Built in | Rare |
| Editable (dynamic) codes | $5/mo, or $79 once | $7–$15+/mo |
| Tracking cookies | None | Common |
SMS codes use the widely supported SMSTO format. The person still taps Send, so it’s their choice to message you, which keeps it friendly and compliant.
How to make your SMS QR code
- Enter the phone number (with country code if people may scan from abroad).
- Write the message, e.g. a keyword like “JOIN”.
- Download and add to flyers, packaging or signs.
Questions, answered
Do I need consent to text people back?
For marketing messages, yes: follow your country’s rules (in the US, TCPA). A person texting you first is a good start, but keep records of opt-ins.
Do these QR codes expire?
No. Static codes made here contain your information directly, so they work forever, even if EvergreenQR disappeared tomorrow. Dynamic (editable) codes are a Pro feature, and they keep working even if you cancel: they simply freeze on their last link.
