Detailed Review
Unitag is operated by UNITAG SAS, which its terms describe as a French simplified joint-stock company registered in Toulouse (number 532 050 523). The pricing page lists Silver, Gold and Platinum plans monthly or yearly, and a Diamond tier on a custom contract. Every plan includes unlimited QR codes and scans, with no per-scan fees, and EU hosting.
Dynamic QR codes can be re-pointed after printing, with scan analytics whose depth grows by tier: two weeks of data history on Silver, up to unlimited on Diamond. A separate GS1 track covers serialized codes and a Digital Link resolver. The terms mention a 14-day trial and French applicable law.
Weaker points: the cheapest paid plan carries light analytics and 25 codes per batch, custom domains and extra users cost extra, and prices were shown in pounds to this visitor, so check the euro price at checkout. The sales terms also allow price changes at renewal, and a London office appears next to the Toulouse one.
