What Mekso is

Mekso combines branded short links, customizable QR codes, and click and scan analytics in one web and API service. Short links support custom aliases, bulk creation, real-time activity, and geographic and device tracking. Its QR generator offers more than 25 types, custom colors and styles, logo embedding, PNG, SVG, and PDF exports, scan limits, and per-code tracking. Dynamic codes can be edited after creation, with expiry dates and scan limits available. Analytics show clicks and scans in real time, along with referrers, traffic timing, geographic and device information, and a live activity feed. Offline QR codes store their content in the code for scanning without an internet connection. The free plan includes 10 short links, three dynamic QR codes, unlimited static codes, one branded link, and 60 days of analytics history. Pro costs $4.99 per month and adds 200 short links, 25 dynamic codes, full history, API access, and bulk creation up to 200 at once.
