One link. The complete picture of every scan and click.

Purpose-built for marketers, creators and analysts who want to know what happens after someone clicks — without complicated setup.

QR codes in one click

Every link gets a crisp, printable QR code. Put it on packaging, posters, business cards or slides and track every scan.

Location analytics

See each visitor’s country, region and city from their IP — plotted on an interactive map. City-level, instant, no permission needed.

Device & browser detection

Redirect anywhere

Point a link at any destination URL. Visitors are logged and instantly forwarded — change the target any time.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What is ScanTraceQR?

ScanTraceQR is a free QR code generator and link tracker. You create a tracking link or QR code that points to any URL; when someone opens it, we log their approximate location, device, browser and time, then redirect them to your destination. You view all of it on a live analytics dashboard.

How accurate is the location?

Location is derived from the visitor’s IP address, which is city-level and instant — no permission prompt. On mobile carrier networks it reflects the carrier gateway rather than the exact handset. For pinpoint accuracy you can enable optional, consent-based GPS per link, which asks the visitor’s browser for permission.

Is it really free?

Yes. Sign up and create unlimited tracking links and QR codes with full analytics at no cost.

Can I use it for QR codes on print materials?

Absolutely. Every link comes with a high-quality, printable QR code — ideal for packaging, posters, menus, business cards and event signage. Every scan is tracked.

Is this allowed / ethical?

ScanTraceQR is a self-hosted analytics tool for links you own and share. IP-based location is standard web analytics; precise GPS is strictly opt-in with a browser permission prompt. Please use it responsibly and in line with the laws and privacy rules that apply to you.
