How it works
- 01
Paste a link. Any http or https address. You get a short link and its QR code at once, with no account for up to 10 a day.
- 02
Print the QR code. Download it as PNG or SVG in the style you like. It points at your short link, so the code never has to change.
- 03
Change it whenever. With a free account, point the link somewhere new after the flyers are printed, and watch every click and scan arrive.
Everything a printed link needs.
A short link you can still change, a QR code that points at it, and the numbers on who used it. The parts that matter once the code is on paper.

Destination
example.com/menu/spring
example.com/menu/summerThe printed code opens the new page
Edit after printing. The QR code holds your short link, so changing the destination never means reprinting.

Clicks and scans. Each link shows clicks by day, country, referring site and device, with QR scans counted apart from clicks.

Contrast checked before you print
QR styles. Rounded or square dots, your colours, four error correction levels, and a contrast check before you print.
Custom endings. snip.link/spring-menu reads better than random letters. Free accounts hold 100 links.
Safe destinations. Every destination is checked before it goes live, and links into other shorteners are refused.
Switch off any time. Disable a link and it stops at once. Turn it back on and the same QR code works again.
Use Snip from your AI assistant.

Questions
Questions people ask first.
Short answers on price, accounts, assistants and what a click records.
Is Snip free?
Yes. Shorten up to 10 links a day on this page with no account, and make as many static QR codes as you like in the free QR code generator. A free account keeps up to 100 links and shows 30 days of click and scan stats. Pro ($12/month) is only for heavy use: 5,000 links and 365 days of stats.
What is a free link shortener with analytics?
A link shortener turns a long address into a short one that forwards to it; analytics count who follows it. Snip does both for free: each link counts clicks and QR scans separately, by day, country, referring site and device. A free account holds 100 links with 30 days of stats.
Do I need an account?
No. Shorten up to 10 links a day and download their QR codes without one, and the QR code generator never asks for one. Create a free account when you want to keep your links, change where they point, pick your own ending and see the stats. Links you made in the same browser in the last 30 days move into the new account.
Can I use Snip from ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. Add the Snip connector (https://snip.link/mcp) and ask for a QR code or a short link in the chat. No sign-in is needed. Setup for each assistant is on the MCP server page.
Do my links stop working if I do not pay?
No. Links on the free plan keep redirecting. Pro adds more links and longer analytics.
Can I change where a link goes after I print the QR code?
Yes. Open the link in your dashboard, paste the new destination and save. The printed code goes to the new place from then on.
How are scans told apart from clicks?
The QR codes Snip draws carry a small marker on the short link, so a scan is counted as a scan and a typed or clicked link as a click.
What do you record about the people who click?
The time, the country, the site they came from and the kind of device. No IP addresses and no browser fingerprints.
