ScanMosaic vs QR TIGER
The short verdict
QR TIGER offers a large set of QR code solutions, bulk creation, integrations and a site in many languages. Its free plan includes unlimited static codes and 3 dynamic codes with 500 scans each, and the pricing page notes that free codes come with a QR TIGER logo popup.
ScanMosaic's free dynamic codes have no branding added, and our paid plans start lower ($4.99 a month against QR TIGER's $7 Regular plan). QR TIGER is the better fit if you need its integrations, a large number of codes on one plan, or a site in your own language that we don't cover yet.

Who should pick which

How to switch to ScanMosaic
- Keep your printed codes running. Don't delete anything on the old service until every printed code has been replaced or has an end date. Dynamic codes stop when their short link stops.
- Recreate each code in ScanMosaic. Pick the same type, paste the same destination, and turn on Dynamic code for anything you might change later.
- Match the look. Set your colours, logo and frame, or start from one of 127 templates. The scan check confirms each design reads.
- Replace codes as you reprint. Swap in the new code at the next print run, then compare scans in the dashboard.
- Close the old account last. Export any scan history you want to keep before you cancel.
