Best QR code app for Shopify in 2026: a rubric, not a ranking
The best QR code app for a Shopify store depends on what you need to measure: scans only, orders, or revenue per code. This page compares seven apps on the same checks, using each app's own App Store listing as of Oct 2026.
Facts about other apps are read from their public App Store listings as of Oct 2026 and link to the source. Listings change, so confirm on the live page before you decide.
Seven apps on the same five checks
Apps are listed in alphabetical order, not by merit. Every cell comes from the app's public listing; where a listing does not mention a feature the cell says so, which is not the same as saying the app lacks it. Qraffic is our app, so read its row with that in mind.

How to choose with the rubric
- If you only need a good-looking code that opens a product page, a free app with scan counts is enough.
- If you want to know which code sold something, check the tracking column for orders or revenue, and check which plan it sits on. It is often not the free one.
- If you print many codes, check bulk creation and whether the code stays editable after printing.
- If review history matters to you, read the reviews. A 5.0 from 1 review and a 4.9 from 59 reviews are different evidence.
- Check what each paid plan costs for the one feature you need, not the headline price.
What this comparison does not cover
It does not test the apps. It reads listings, so scan quality, speed and support are not rated here. Listings change; use the source links and confirm on the live page before you decide.
