A HiHello alternative with 3 free QR cards and scan analytics

The short answer

QRLynx is the stronger HiHello alternative when the priority is free scan analytics, broader QR campaign workflows, unlimited scans, AI summaries, QR-specific controls, or a flat Business price for up to 10 team members. The free QRLynx plan includes 3 active dynamic codes and 90 days of analytics. HiHello Free includes 4 digital cards, while card analytics begin on Professional at $6 a month billed annually.

HiHello is especially strong for organizations centered on digital identity and contact exchange. Its plans add email-signature management, virtual backgrounds, paper business-card scanning, contact enrichment, CRM integrations, SSO, directory sync, templates, and enterprise administration.

QRLynx Business is $29 a month and includes 1,000 active dynamic QR codes, 10 team members, 3 years of analytics, API access, lead forms, email summaries, and bulk batches up to 250. HiHello Business is listed at $5 per user a month billed annually, so a 10-person team is $50 a month before optional add-ons.

Where QRLynx leads

Scan analytics start on the free plan. QRLynx includes 90 days of scan counts and timing plus Basic AI Insight Summaries. HiHello lists card analytics under Professional, not Personal Free.

The free plan has a shared QR allowance. QRLynx includes 3 active dynamic QR codes. A team using those slots for digital business cards can manage 3 cards, compared with four cards on HiHello Personal.

The same account supports far more than identity cards. QRLynx offers 61 selectable QR types for business cards, Bio Pages, menus, PDFs, WiFi, payments, events, GS1 Digital Link, and other campaigns. The campaign can stay in one QR workspace instead of limiting the system to contact exchange.

Business pricing is flat for a 10-person workspace. QRLynx Business is $29 a month for up to 10 members. HiHello Business is $5 per user a month billed annually, which equals $50 a month for 10 users.

Paid tiers add QR-specific control. Pro adds password protection, smart redirect rules, access consent, scheduling, expiry controls, country analytics, and dynamic bulk creation. Business adds city, device, and browser analytics, lead forms, email summaries, CSV export, and scoped API keys. Enterprise adds higher capacity, all available analytics history, eligible branded dynamic domains, retargeting, and white-label features.

Unlimited scans apply across the QRLynx plan ladder. Capacity is measured by active dynamic codes, not by the number of people who scan them.

Where HiHello is especially strong

HiHello is built around digital identity and contact exchange. Personal Free includes 4 digital business cards, a personal email signature, virtual backgrounds, Apple and Google Wallet sharing, QR and widget sharing, and 5 paper business-card or badge scans each month.

Professional is listed at $6 a month billed annually. It increases capacity to 16 cards and adds card analytics, full customization, contact enrichment, a professional email signature and virtual backgrounds, plus 20 paper-card or badge scans a month. An unlimited scanning add-on is also listed.

Business is designed for 5 to 100 users at $5 per user a month billed annually. It includes unlimited cards, unlimited card and badge scans, event lead capture, unlimited contact enrichment, team analytics, templates, SSO, directory sync, and integrations with services such as Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Google Workspace, and Microsoft Entra ID.

Enterprise extends that model with SAML and SCIM, enterprise lead capture, department templates, verified badges, security controls, and a dedicated account manager. HiHello is a strong fit when identity provisioning, signatures, contact capture, and CRM handoff matter more than broad QR campaign management.

Choose by the operating model

Choose QRLynx when the priority is free scan analytics, 3 active dynamic QR slots, unlimited scans, a broader QR toolkit, QR-specific security and routing controls, a flat 10-member Business price, API creation, or Enterprise QR operation.

Choose HiHello when the priority is centrally managed digital identity, email signatures, virtual backgrounds, paper-card scanning, contact enrichment, CRM synchronization, directory provisioning, or SAML and SCIM administration.

Compare the full workflow. Count the people, cards, QR campaigns, analytics history, contact scans, design templates, CRM connections, and admin controls the organization needs. For 10 users, compare QRLynx Business at $29 a month with HiHello Business at $50 a month billed annually.

Test the real experience. Build a card, add it to Apple or Google Wallet, scan it from several phones, save the contact, update the card, inspect analytics, and test the team or integration path that matters.

Moving an existing HiHello card

A HiHello QR code points to a HiHello-managed card URL. Moving to QRLynx creates a new card URL and a new QR pattern, so an already printed HiHello code cannot be reassigned to QRLynx.

Copy the contact details, links, photo, colors, and other content you want to keep. Build the QRLynx digital business card, test Save to Contacts, add the pass to Apple or Google Wallet, and replace the QR image in digital assets, source files, badges, and future print runs.
