How to Make a QR Code for a Price List (Free, 2026)
A QR code linked to your price list means customers always see current prices — no crossed-out figures, no outdated printouts. The advantage is that you can update prices online whenever they change while the printed code stays exactly the same. Here's how to make one for free and keep it accurate.
Quick answer
Host your price list at a fixed web link — a simple page or a PDF — then generate a QR code that points to it with a free tool like OneSol's QR code generator at onesol.io/qr-code-generator. Display the code at the counter, on quotes, or in your shop so customers scan and see up-to-date prices. Because you edit the price list behind the link, prices can change anytime without printing a new code.
1. Publish your price list at a fixed link
Put your prices on a mobile-friendly web page or a clean PDF and note its URL. A web page is easier to update than a PDF and loads faster on phones, which matters when someone is standing at your counter. Lock in that URL from the start so the code never needs replacing.
2. Generate the QR code
Paste the price-list URL into a free generator like onesol.io/qr-code-generator and pick the URL type. Download it as an SVG for print quality or a large PNG for screens and social posts. Leave a quiet white border around the code and keep high contrast so it scans on the first attempt.
3. Display it where pricing questions come up
Show the code at the point of sale, on printed quotes and invoices, on service menus, and in your window or waiting area. Add a line like "Scan for current pricing" so customers trust it's the latest version. Size it for the reading distance and avoid busy backgrounds behind the code.
4. Update prices without reissuing the code
When prices change, edit the online price list — every code already printed keeps pointing to the same link and instantly shows the new figures. Scan-test on two phones before printing to be sure it opens correctly. This removes the cost and hassle of reprinting price sheets every time you adjust a figure.

FAQ
Can I change prices after the QR code is printed?
Yes. Update the price list at the link the code points to and every printed code shows the new prices — the URL stays the same, so nothing needs reprinting.
Should I link to a web page or a PDF price list?
A web page is usually better — it loads faster on phones and is easier to edit. A PDF works too, but it's slower to open and clunkier to update.
Do customers need an app to view the price list?
No. Any recent iPhone or Android opens the link straight from the built-in camera — no separate scanner app required.
Is a price-list QR code free to create?
Yes. Free tools like OneSol's QR code generator make the code at no cost, and you can host the price list on a free page or PDF.
