How it works

How to use the QR Code Generator

  1. 01

    Choose what the code should do: open a link, join a Wi‑Fi network, start an email or call a number.

  2. 02

    Fill in the details. Pick colours, a margin and an error-correction level; higher levels survive smudges and logos.

  3. 03

    Download a PNG for screens and print, or an SVG that stays sharp at any size. Test it with your phone camera first.

About this tool

Static QR codes that never expire

A QR code is a square barcode that phone cameras can read to open a link, join a Wi‑Fi network, start an email or call a number. They're used on posters, menus, packaging, business cards, event tickets and presentations to get people from print to online in one scan.

The codes made here are static: the content is encoded directly into the pattern, not routed through a redirect service. That means they work forever, don't track scans and can't be switched off by a subscription ending. Download an SVG for print so it stays sharp at any size, or a PNG for screens and documents.

  • Links, text, Wi‑Fi, email, phone

    Pick a type and fill in the details; the right format is encoded for you.

  • PNG and SVG

    High-resolution PNG up to 2048 px, or a scalable SVG for print.

  • Custom colours

    Set foreground and background colours, or a transparent background.

  • Error correction

    Choose from 7% to 30% redundancy so codes survive smudges or a logo overlay.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do these QR codes expire?

No. They're static codes with your content encoded directly in them, so they keep working forever and don't depend on our site.

Can I make a QR code for Wi‑Fi?

Yes. Choose Wi‑Fi, enter the network name, password and security type. Scanning the code lets phones join the network without typing the password.

Which error correction level should I use?

Medium (15%) suits most uses. Choose High or Max if the code will be printed small, on a rough surface, or if you plan to place a logo over the centre.

What size should a printed QR code be?

As a rule of thumb, at least 2 × 2 cm (about 0.8 inch), and larger the further away people will scan from. Keep a quiet zone of empty space around it.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your files and text never leave your device, so it's safe for private or confidential work.
