What is QR Code Generator?

QR Code Generator creates downloadable QR codes from any URL, text, phone number, email address, or WiFi credentials. QR codes bridge the physical and digital world — printed on business cards, product packaging, restaurant menus, event tickets, and marketing materials, they give people instant access to your content with a phone camera scan. This tool generates high-resolution QR codes with customizable size, error correction level, and download format (PNG or SVG) so you can use them in both digital and print contexts without quality loss.

  5. Test the QR code with your phone camera before printing or publishing.

Common questions

What can I encode in a QR code?

URLs, plain text, phone numbers, email addresses, WiFi network credentials, geographic coordinates, calendar events, and vCard contact information.

What size should my QR code be for printing?

Minimum 2x2 cm for close-range scanning (business cards). For posters or signage scanned from distance, use 10x10 cm or larger. Download SVG for print to ensure sharp output at any size.

What is error correction and which level should I use?

Error correction allows QR codes to be read even when partially damaged or obscured. Use Medium (M) for most cases. Use High (H) if the code will be printed on textured surfaces or partially covered by a logo.

Can I put a logo in the center of my QR code?

You can overlay a small logo manually after download if you use High error correction. The error correction compensates for the obscured center area.

Do QR codes expire?

Static QR codes (encoding a fixed URL or text) never expire. The content is embedded directly in the code pattern. However, if you encode a URL, the destination page must remain accessible.
