Letlink vs Beaconstac (Uniqode)

Beaconstac is now called Uniqode: the company announced the rename on its own blog, and beaconstac.com now redirects to uniqode.com. It is a QR code platform built for businesses, with dynamic QR codes, Linkpages, forms and digital business cards, and it sells its QR plans on annual billing only. Letlink takes a narrower line: every click recorded in full, routing rules on a single short code, and a price that starts at nothing and stays small.

Short answer

Letlink is the cheaper way to get QR codes you can edit and track: its $3.90 Solo plan includes 200 QR codes, where Uniqode's pricing page lists 15 dynamic QR codes on Essential at $9 a month, billed yearly only. Letlink records the country and device of every scan on every plan, including Free, while Uniqode lists scan location and device tracking from Core at $49 a month, and a REST API costs $8.90 a month on Letlink against $49 on Uniqode Core. Beaconstac (Uniqode) is the stronger pick for enterprise QR programmes: it adds Linkpages, forms, digital business cards, SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR compliance on every plan, SSO and lifetime analytics on its higher tiers.
