Permanent QR Codes—
Pay Once & Use Forever.
Before you buy an "AppSumo lifetime deal" for QR codes, understand who owns the product, who pays for the hosting, and why so many marketplace deals end up in the software graveyard.
Why This Comparison Matters
Marketplace lifetime deals follow a specific pattern: A platform promotes an offer, a third-party fulfills it, and revenue is split upfront.
After the campaign ends, the owner's incentives naturally change.
This doesn't mean the product is bad — it means the model is optimized for campaigns, not permanence.
The "AppSumo Graveyard" Risk
Marketplace platforms take up to a 70% commission upfront. The developer is left with pennies to pay for your lifetime of server hosting.
When the campaign ends, the developer has no recurring revenue. The server bills pile up, and the project is abandoned. This is the AppSumo Graveyard.

Lifetime Deal FAQ
Is LifetimeQRCodes affiliated with any deal marketplace?
No. LifetimeQRCodes is a standalone product by QRTRAC LLC. We are not affiliated with any deal marketplace. We sell directly from the makers so you get long-term accountability and guaranteed support.
Is this the same as a marketplace lifetime deal?
No. Marketplace deals involve resellers and commissions. LifetimeQRCodes is a first-party product. You buy directly from the makers, which means 100% of your payment goes towards sustaining the hosting and infrastructure for your codes.
Why do marketplace lifetime deals feel risky long-term?
Marketplaces optimize for short-term sales volume and upfront commissions (often 50% or more). When a campaign ends, the product owner is left with 100% of the long-term hosting costs but only a fraction of the revenue. This misalignment often leads to 'sunset' features or forced upgrades.
Will my QR codes expire?
No. QR codes created with LifetimeQRCodes do not expire. Because we operate a sustainability-first model without marketplace overhead, we can guarantee long-term operation.
Are there scan limits or hidden caps?
No. We do not use hidden scan limits or surprise throttling to force you onto a higher plan.
What if I need advanced features later?
LifetimeQRCodes is built for permanent, static-style QR needs. If you later require enterprise-grade analytics or team management, we offer the Lifetime QR Code subscription platform — but your lifetime codes remain yours regardless.
Why don't you sell on deal marketplaces?
Because permanence requires responsibility. We chose long-term sustainability over short-term volume spikes. Buying direct is the only way to ensure the product you use today is still here in 10 years.
