The business-tier question
SquidBlink Business vs QR Tiger's $16 and $37 plans
Three direct questions, answered straight — including the ones where they win.
Does SquidBlink compete with QR Tiger at $16?
On price and features alone? Honestly, no. Their Advanced plan — 200 dynamic codes, unlimited scans, bulk generation, Zapier and HubSpot integrations, retargeting — at $16 is genuinely strong value, and our $29 Business plan doesn't beat it spec-for-spec.
Where we compete is what $16 can't buy: Permanent Ink (your codes keep working even if you cancel), the namespace + Ink Card identity layer they don't offer, a dashboard a non-technical owner can actually use — and month-to-month billing. Their $16 plan requires a full year upfront.
What about at $37?
Yes, head-on. Our $29 Business plan is $8/month cheaper ($96/year) than their Premium $37. You get 200 dynamic codes, 250,000 scans a month, 5 namespaces with Ink Cards, bulk print-ready export, API access, and 2 team seats.
They give you 600 codes, white-label domains, geofencing, and precision geolocation. If you need geofencing or 600 codes, they win that row and we'll say so. If you need your brand identity under one roof with codes you own forever, we do.
Does QR Tiger offer 2 months free?
Not as a stated offer. Here's their actual billing: the $7 Regular plan is the only tier with month-to-month billing — pay yearly and it's $65 instead of $84, which works out to roughly two and a half months free.
But Advanced ($16) and Premium ($37) are annual-only: no monthly option exists, so you're committing to $192 or $444 upfront. SquidBlink Business is $29 month-to-month, or $290/year annual — a straight two months free — and your codes keep working even if you cancel mid-year.

No wrong answer
When to pick which.
Pick QR Tiger Advanced ($16) if…
Budget is the priority and you want proven integrations on day one. It's the best value in the industry at that price — we'll say it plainly.
Pick QR Tiger Premium ($37) if…
You need geofencing, 600 codes, or white-label domains at scale. That's enterprise territory, and they own it.
Pick SquidBlink Business ($29) if…
You want codes you own forever, your whole identity — links, QRs, Ink Card — under one namespace, month-to-month freedom, and a human to call.
Fair questions
Asked plainly, answered plainly.
Why is SquidBlink $29 when Advanced is $16?+
Because you're not buying codes — you're buying ownership. Permanent Ink means your printed materials are safe forever, and the namespace layer means your brand lives in one place. If you only need cheap codes, Advanced is the rational pick.
Can I switch from annual to monthly later?+
With us, yes — billing flexes either way and your codes never blink. With QR Tiger's Advanced and Premium, there's no monthly option to switch to.
