A Flowcode alternative when you just need codes, not a marketing suite
Flowcode positions itself as a conversion platform. Its plans bundle landing pages, forms, CRM and CDP integrations, audience retargeting and smart routing by day, device and location. For brands that run QR campaigns end to end, those tools matter. QRPebble is deliberately smaller: it generates and redirects codes, shows scan counts by date, country and device, and lets you export CSV on Pro. If you don't need landing pages or CRM sync, the smaller tool may be enough. Figures below were read on Flowcode's pricing page.
