Same-QR and QR TIGER comparison: prices, limits, and conditions

The difference in one sentence

Large quantities are cheaper here — 200 QR codes for 16 dollars. The free tariff, however, switches off after 500 scans per QR code, so right in the middle of a campaign. With Same-QR, scans are unlimited on every paid plan (1,000 a month free), the monthly price applies without a yearly contract, and no advertising appears during a scan.

What QR TIGER can do better

The largest quotas at the lowest price, geofencing and own domain from Premium — this is not a side note, but the reason why QR TIGER is the right choice for many. Those who need exactly that should stay there.

For a fair comparison, the other side must also be considered: Same-QR does not offer team rights for multiple users. Those who need them are better served by larger providers, while those who need their own QR code reliably and without limits are better served by us.

What to check before you decide

  • Counting method: QR codes in total or new QR codes per month? For campaigns with many placements, this decides the plan.
  • Scan limit: 500 scans per QR code in the free tariff. Same-QR has none on any paid plan, and the free plan includes 1,000 scans a month.
  • Binding: from Advanced only yearly. With Same-QR, the monthly price applies without a contract term.
  • Advertising on scan: no for both providers — unlike some ad-funded free offerings in the market.

Frequently asked questions

Is Same-QR cheaper than QR TIGER?

At the start yes: 7.90 EUR/month excl. VAT for 50 QR codes, compared to 7 $ / Month (Regular) for 12 QR codes. For very large quantities, the balance can tip — the tables above show the pricing tiers of both providers, calculated for your quantity.

Can I switch from QR TIGER to Same-QR without reprinting?

Yes, using the bridge method: As long as your old subscription is active, you set the target of each QR code to a new Same-QR code, and the printed QR codes are redirected via Same-QR. If you had your own domain with the old provider, you connect it directly to Same-QR from Gastro Pro and Marketing Starter. The moving assistant in the dashboard guides you through both.

Are scans really unlimited?

On every paid plan, yes. The free plan includes 1,000 scans a month; beyond that the QR codes keep working, with a short notice before the destination, but after 7 days above the limit they show only a notice until the end of the month. A scan is a redirect and costs fractions of a cent. A cap would be a sales barrier, not a technical requirement. Automated bulk retrieval is excluded, which does not generate real scans.

How often can I change the destination?

In the paid plans unlimited. In the free plan twice per QR code. The number of QR codes and all other features follow the plan you booked, during the trial as well.
