What this means for your QR codes

  • Your printed codes keep working. A QR code on a poster, a menu or a business card resolves every time it is scanned.
  • Improvements never interrupt scans. We ship updates often, and visitors never notice.
  • Problems fix themselves. If part of the service stops answering, traffic moves away from it automatically.

Limits and caveats

  • The chart shows 14 consecutive days of request logs. The volume and the zero error count have held for three months.
  • Uptime is about Linkbreakers answering. Whether the website a link sends people to is up is outside our control.

Frequently asked questions

Do scans fail while you ship updates?

No. A new version is ready and answering before the old one stops, so there is always a version answering.

What counts as a server error?

Any time our service fails to answer a request it should have answered. Requests for links that do not exist are answered with a "not found", which is the correct answer, not an error.
