Additional info
Every branded short link is created using a Branded Domain.
As long as a branded domain exists in your Rebrandly account and is correctly configured, all branded short links created with that domain will be active and working.
Each branded link is associated with a QR code image representing it. To download a PNG version of the QR code, just add .qr to an existing branded short link (e.g, rebrand.ly/video.qr is the QR code for rebrand.ly/video).
