The catch with a no-card trial
A trial without a card feels comfortable: nothing to enter, no risk of being charged. The catch, documented in QRFY's help center, is that dynamic codes created during the trial are deactivated when it ends and lead to a service page. If you printed flyers or table tents during those 7 days, they stop working on day eight unless you subscribe.
QRTada's trial asks for a card, on purpose: it rolls into the plan you picked after a reminder 2 days before, and cancels in two clicks. If you cancel, trial codes do not hit a dead end: they show an interstitial page with a button to your destination, never blocked.
And after cancelling a paid plan?
For QRFY, read the vendor's FAQ and terms before printing, and keep a dated screenshot. At QRTada the rule is in our terms of sale: every code created or edited during a paid period keeps redirecting to its last destination with no time limit, even after you cancel. Details on the lifetime guarantee.
When QRFY may suit you
If you only want to play with designs without printing anything, and without handing over a card, a no-card trial is convenient. If you plan to stay subscribed long term and like its interface or templates, it is a valid choice. The watch-out stays the same: do not print trial codes.
Switching providers
- List your codes and destinations from your QRFY account.
- Recreate them in QRTada, one by one or by CSV import on Pro.
- Reprint your materials: a printed code points to the old provider's domain, and no other service can take it over.
- Check each new code with the checker before printing.
If your QRFY codes are already deactivated, the free QR code guide explains your options, and QR code not working helps confirm the cause.
