Control the lifecycle
Set expiration, usage limits, or one-time behavior so links follow the actual lifetime of the resource.
SURLS / QR Code URL Shortener
Use a stable short URL behind a QR code so the destination can be managed after the code is printed.
Print once. Manage the destination later.
Why this matters
QR codes are difficult to replace once distributed. A SURLS link gives you a configurable destination behind the code, with optional lifecycle and access controls.
SURLS puts link creation, lifecycle, access control, domains, and delivery behavior behind one manageable endpoint.
Protect access
Use password or PIN protection and other available access rules when a destination should not be openly exposed.
Keep the URL stable
Manage the destination behind the public link so published URLs can continue working as your content changes.
Core capabilities
Built around the way this link is actually used.
Choose the controls that match the resource, recipient, and lifetime of the URL.
Stable QR destination
Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.
Destination updates
Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.
Printed-code longevity
Designed as part of a managed link workflow so the public URL remains useful while its behavior stays configurable.
How it works
From destination to controlled link.
A simple workflow that scales from one manual link to application-generated infrastructure.
01
Choose a destinationStart with the URL, download endpoint, campaign destination, or application resource you want to expose.
02
Apply the policyConfigure the access and lifecycle rules that match the use case: protection, expiration, usage, or domain.
03
Publish the linkShare the resulting short URL anywhere a normal link can be used: browser, email, QR code, product UI, or API workflow.
04
Manage it laterReview activity and update the link without needing to replace every place where the public URL was published.

Frequently asked
Clear answers before you ship.
Why put a short URL behind a QR code?
It keeps the QR destination compact and gives you the ability to manage the destination without replacing the printed code.
Can I combine multiple controls?
Yes. SURLS is designed so lifecycle and access controls can be combined where the workflow requires more than one condition.
Can I use this from an application?
Yes. SURLS provides API-oriented link infrastructure so applications can create and manage links programmatically.
Can I use my own domain?
Custom-domain support lets you connect a domain, verify DNS, and create links using that domain.
