Uniqode alternative

Uniqode (Beaconstac) alternative for small businesses

Uniqode, formerly Beaconstac, is an enterprise QR platform sold on annual plans. By its own pricing page, its dynamic codes become inactive when you cancel or your trial ends. QRVow codes never do.

Why people switch to QRVow

  • Your codes stay live whether or not you keep paying.
  • Monthly billing from $5, or $39 a year, instead of annual-only plans.
  • Custom domain and API on Business at $15 a month.

Where Uniqode is stronger

  • Enterprise features: single sign-on, multiple seats and long analytics history.
  • A wider platform: digital business cards, link pages and integrations.

If you need these, Uniqode may suit you better. We'd rather you pick the right tool.

Switching from Uniqode

  1. Make a QRVow code for each destination (3 dynamic codes are free; Pro covers 100).
  2. Codes you already printed point at Uniqode's short links, which only they control. Keep their plan running while you reprint, or swap the printed codes as each batch is due for a refresh.
  3. From then on, your codes point at QRVow and keep working whether or not you keep paying.

Questions

Is QRVow a good free alternative to Uniqode?

For most small businesses, yes: static codes are free and unlimited, 3 dynamic codes are free forever, and no QRVow code ever stops working, even if you never pay or later cancel.

Can I move my existing Uniqode codes to QRVow?

Not the printed ones: they point at Uniqode's own short links, which only they can redirect. Make new QRVow codes and replace the printed ones over time.
