About

It also includes QR Reader and Barcode Reader access, while higher plans increase saved items, dynamic links, projects, pixels, retention, and export features.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable, but tightly capped: it includes the core QR/barcode and dynamic-link features, while limiting storage, projects, pixels, exports, and bulk actions. Compared with the cheapest paid Starter plan at about $6.99/month, the free offering feels like roughly 25-30% of that value, so about $2/month is a fair estimate. A credit card is not called out as required, and the plan is free forever but still clearly capped, so it is not an unbounded free offer.
