Your QR code appears here as you type.
Private by design
The code is generated on your device. Nothing you type is uploaded, logged, or stored — there is no server to send it to.
Free, forever
No account, no watermark, no scan limits, no expiring links. The codes are static and belong to you — commercial use welcome.
Sharp at any size
True-vector SVG scales from business card to billboard without a hint of blur. Need raster? Export PNG up to 4096 px.
QR code questions, answered
How do I generate a QR code?
Pick what the code should do — open a link, join Wi‑Fi, save a contact — fill in the fields, and the QR appears instantly. Click Download SVG for vector artwork or Download PNG for a high‑resolution image.
Do QR codes made here expire?
No. These are static QR codes: your content is encoded directly into the pattern, with no redirect through our servers. They keep working forever and there is nothing to renew or pay for.
Is it really free — even for commercial use?
Yes. No account, no watermarks, no scan limits. The codes you generate are yours to use anywhere, including commercial print, packaging, and advertising.
Does my content leave my browser?
No. Generation runs entirely on your device with JavaScript. Wi‑Fi passwords, contact details, and links are never uploaded or stored anywhere.
What format should I use for print—SVG or PNG?
Use SVG wherever possible for true‑vector output and infinite scaling. If a workflow requires raster, download PNG at high pixel dimensions and ensure the printed module size remains large enough to scan.
What size should a print QR code be?
As a rule of thumb, keep the printed QR at least 20–25 mm on a side for typical viewing distances. Increase size for longer distances or dense content.
Which error correction level should I choose?
For most print uses, M or Q is a good balance of robustness and density. Higher correction improves damage tolerance but increases complexity.
Can I print in black & white only?
Yes. High contrast black foreground on white background is ideal. Avoid reversing (white code on dark) unless you thoroughly test.
What is the quiet zone and why does it matter?
The quiet zone is a blank margin around the QR code that helps scanners detect edges. Every code generated here includes the recommended 4‑module quiet zone automatically.
Will this work for very small QR codes?
Very small QRs can become unscannable due to print and camera limits. Prefer SVG and increase physical size to maintain scan reliability.
Should I design in CMYK or RGB?
For print, work in CMYK and proof on your target stock. Ensure adequate contrast after conversion; pure black on white remains safest.
Can I place a logo inside the QR code?
You can place a small logo in the center if you increase error correction (Q/H) and overall size. Never overlap finder patterns or the quiet zone.
How do I export for my print vendor?
Provide SVG embedded directly in your layout app or export to PDF/X with vectors preserved. If rasterized, use high‑DPI PNG and avoid resampling.
Does URL length affect scan reliability?
Longer content increases symbol density, which can reduce reliability at small sizes. If needed, use a trustworthy branded short link and test thoroughly.
What DPI should I use for PNG exports?
Export at large pixel sizes (e.g., 4096 px) and scale down in layout with image smoothing off. The effective printed size matters more than nominal DPI.
