Huqo QR: short URLs, codes and analytics

Open Huqo QR#

Choose Huqo QR in the sidebar or Apps switcher for short URLs, matching QR codes, analytics, deleted links and slot management. Huqo Me is a separate app for branded link pages.

Your existing links, QR codes, addresses and purchased capacity carry over. Free accounts have one included reusable slot; Suite Pro has five.

Understand your reusable link slots#

Free accounts include one active short-link slot, and Suite Pro includes five. This is a maximum active capacity, not a new-link allowance that resets each month. A short URL and its matching QR code share one slot. Pausing a link keeps its address reserved and still occupies its slot.

Choose Add slots to purchase extra capacity. Each additional slot costs 200 credits once, equivalent to A$1 at the current top-up rate of 1,000 credits for A$5. The app shows the total and requires confirmation before deducting credits. Purchased capacity remains on your account and is usable on Free or Pro.

Deleting a short link immediately frees its slot. Restoring a deleted link uses a slot again, so you need spare capacity before restoring it. Buttons on a Link Page do not consume short-link slots unless you separately create shortened URLs for them.

If Pro ends, your included capacity becomes one slot plus every purchased slot. Links and analytics stay saved. The oldest nondeleted links, including paused links, occupy the available slots, ordered by creation time and then identifier. Overflow links show Needs a slot and stop redirecting until space is available, you add slots or Pro resumes. Your chosen active or paused status does not change.

Create, edit and share a short URL#

Give each link an internal name, paste its complete destination address and optionally choose a custom ending. Leave the ending empty to generate one. Custom endings must be available and follow the validation shown in the form.

Use Copy to share the short URL. Edit link changes the name or destination while retaining its original short address. A printed QR code will follow the updated destination too. Pause stops a link temporarily without releasing its address or slot.

1. Open Links & QR codes and choose Create short link.
2. Enter a useful name and a complete http:// or https:// destination.
3. Choose an available ending or leave it empty.
4. Save, then use Copy or QR code to share it.

Download a QR code for a link#

Choose QR code beside a short link to preview it. Download PNG for ordinary sharing or SVG when you need a scalable print file. The QR code is generated inside the app and does not require a separate credit purchase or extra slot.

The QR code opens the same short link with scan attribution. QR scans are shown separately within analytics and are also included in the overall link activity. Do not add scans to clicks to estimate a separate audience total. Test your downloaded code on a phone before printing a large batch.

See what people open#

Choose Analytics beside a short link and select the last 7, 30 or 90 days. Reports show clicks, QR scans, estimated unique visitors and activity over time, with breakdowns for devices, traffic sources and approximate countries when available. Export daily CSV downloads the selected period.

These reports describe anonymous activity, not a visitor's name, email address or social account. Locations and unique-visitor counts are approximate. Browsers, VPNs, privacy settings and known preview bots can affect the data. Traffic sources may be unknown when the referring app or browser does not send them.

Detailed reports cover up to 90 days. Deleting and later reusing an address does not transfer another customer's analytics into your account.

Recover a deleted address within 30 days#

Deleting immediately disables the short URL and its QR code and makes its slot available. The address remains reserved for your account in Recently deleted for 30 days. During this grace period, other people cannot claim it.

Open Recently deleted and choose Restore before the recovery period ends. Restoring needs an available short-link slot and an active Huqo account.

After 30 days the reservation ends. Anyone, including the original owner, may claim the available address. Reclaiming it is not guaranteed. Old shared URLs and printed QR codes can then open the destination chosen by the new owner, so keep important addresses active if you still distribute them.

Add capacity with credits#

Each extra reusable short-link slot costs 200 credits once, available on Free or Pro. QR downloads share the short URL slot and do not have a separate fee.

Open Slots & credits in Huqo QR to review included and purchased capacity. Confirm the quantity and displayed credit cost before purchasing. No recurring QR subscription is created by buying a slot.
