How to migrate from QR Tiger to QRCodeStack

Migration means recreating each code, so the time depends on how many you have. Larger sets can be created through the API. QRCodeStack support can answer migration questions.

1. List your existing QR codes and their destination URLs.
2. Sign up for a QRCodeStack 7-day free trial (no credit card).
3. Recreate your QR codes in QRCodeStack, by hand for small lists or through the API for larger ones.
4. Use the same destination URLs so the new codes lead to the same pages as the old ones.
5. Update your QR scan tracking in your CRM or analytics tool to point at QRCodeStack's scan data.
6. Cancel QR Tiger only after the old printed codes are out of circulation. Dynamic codes printed from QR Tiger resolve through QR Tiger, so reprint with the new codes first.
