Free QR Code Generator

A QR code generator is a tool that turns information into a square barcode a phone camera can read. This one takes a website address — or Wi-Fi details, a short text, an email address, or a phone number — and produces a scannable QR code you can download as a PNG or SVG image.

Yes. It is free to use, with no paid tier, no watermark, and no limit on how many codes you create.

No. There is no sign-up, no email address, and no login. The tool works the moment the page loads.

Paste your URL into the field above and select Generate QR. The code appears immediately, and the download buttons save it as a PNG or an SVG. There are no other steps.

No. The code encodes your destination address directly, with no short link or redirect in between, so the code itself never expires. It stops working only if the destination page is taken down or its address changes.

A static QR code has the destination written into the pattern itself, so it never expires and cannot be edited or tracked. A dynamic QR code encodes a short redirect URL instead, which its owner can re-point and measure, but which stops working if that service shuts down. This tool creates static codes.

The printed code keeps pointing at the old address, so it will fail. Because the destination is encoded directly, there is no way to re-point an existing static code — you generate a new one. If the address is likely to change, link to a page you control and redirect from there.

Any http:// or https:// web address. If you type example.com it is completed to https://example.com. Unsafe schemes such as javascript: and data: are rejected. Besides links, the generator also makes Wi-Fi, plain text, email, phone, and SMS codes; vCard and MeCard contact cards are not supported.

Yes. Every code downloads as a 1024 × 1024 px PNG named qr-code.png.

Yes. Download SVG saves a vector file named qr-code.svg. Because it stores the code as shapes rather than pixels, it stays perfectly sharp at any size and is the better choice for print and for design tools.

The PNG is 1024 × 1024 pixels. Each module — the small squares that make up the code — is drawn at a whole number of pixels, so the edges stay sharp instead of being blurred by resampling. The SVG has no fixed resolution at all.

Yes. Both files have a solid light background — white unless you choose another colour — and include the full four-module quiet zone — the clear margin scanners need to find the code — so they print cleanly on posters, menus, and labels.

No. The link you enter is never transmitted, never written to storage, and never recorded in analytics. Nothing about it leaves the page.

Yes. The QR code is built entirely by JavaScript running in your browser. The link is never sent anywhere, so the tool keeps working even if you go offline after the page has loaded.

Your link is not. It never leaves your browser, so there is nothing about it to share. The site does use Google Analytics to count visits, so Google receives ordinary visit data — the page, your browser type, a rough location — but never the links you encode.

Yes. The image is yours to use, with no attribution required and no usage limit. The QR Code symbol format is an open standard, ISO/IEC 18004, and is royalty-free.

Yes, as an image. A web address usually works best: the code opens a page — your contact page, portfolio, or booking form — that you can update after printing. Phone and email codes are also available if you want a scan to start a call or an email; vCard contact codes are not supported. At business-card size, print it at least 2 cm across and keep the white margin around it.

Yes. As a rule of thumb, a code scans reliably when its printed width is about a tenth of the distance people will scan it from, so a sign read from 2 metres wants roughly 20 cm. Use the SVG for anything larger than a postcard.
