Does Flowcode have a free plan?

Yes. Flowcode's free plan includes two dynamic Flowcodes and two landing pages with unlimited scans. The catch is analytics: scan data is only reported for the first 500 scans on the account. Once that cap is hit, new scan events are not shown in the dashboard — the code still physically works, but you lose visibility. QRZY's free plan offers one dynamic code with full 7-day analytics on every scan.

What is a Flowcode analytics scan limit?

Flowcode does not cap how many times a QR code can be physically scanned — scans are unlimited on every tier. What it caps is how many scans are reported in the analytics dashboard: 500 on free, 6,000 on Pro Plus ($300/yr), 10,000 on Growth ($250/yr). Scans beyond the cap happen physically but do not appear in your data.

Does Flowcode have conditional routing?

No. Flowcode dynamic QR codes redirect to a single destination that you can update. There is no conditional logic to route by time of day, device type, location, or A/B split. QRZY includes time/day/date routing free; device + A/B on Starter ($100/yr); location, language, and scan count on Pro ($250/yr).

How does QRZY compare to Flowcode on price?

QRZY Starter ($100/yr) vs Flowcode Pro Plus ($300/yr): QRZY is cheaper and includes full analytics + smart routing. Flowcode's $300/yr plan caps analytics at 6,000 scans and lacks conditional routing. QRZY Pro ($250/yr) — the direct annual-spend comparison to Flowcode Growth ($250/yr) — includes smart routing, full analytics, and 25 QR codes; Flowcode Growth includes geo analytics and 10,000 reported scans but no conditional routing.

QRZY vs Flowcode for dynamic QR codes

Flowcode's free tier gets unlimited physical scans but shows analytics for only 500 of them — after that, scan data simply disappears from your dashboard. For a print campaign with any volume, you're flying blind unless you upgrade. QRZY shows full analytics on every scan from the start.
