Free QR Code Tracking — How to Know Who Scanned

Track QR code scans for free — see how many people scanned, from where, on what device, and when. No paid tools required.

The Problem with Regular QR Codes

Most free QR code generators create a static code pointing to a URL. You get zero data:

❌ How many people scanned?

❌ Where are they located?

❌ What device did they use?

❌ When did they scan?

You're completely blind.

How Tracked QR Codes Work

A tracked QR code points to a smart link instead of the final URL. The smart link records every scan, then redirects to your destination.

```

QR Code → linkvor.com/yourname/product → (tracks scan) → amazon.com/your-link

```

Same user experience (instant redirect), but now you have data.
