Everything you need to know about creating, customizing, downloading, and scanning QR codes.
Yes! QR Code Generator is completely free to use. Generate unlimited static QR codes with no hidden charges, subscription fees, or credit card requirements. We believe essential digital tools should be accessible to everyone.
No, your static QR codes never expire. Because the data is encoded directly into the QR matrix pattern itself, the QR code will remain functional forever without any renewals or server dependencies.
Absolutely! You can upload any PNG, JPG, or SVG image as a custom logo. The logo is automatically placed in the center of the QR code with protective margin padding to ensure 100% camera readability.
We support downloading in PNG, SVG (scalable vector graphics), JPG, WEBP, and PDF formats. Use the HD (2x Resolution) button for high-density commercial printing on flyers, banners, and business cards.
We support over 20 QR code types including: URL / Website Link, Plain Text, WiFi Network Credentials, Email, Phone Number, SMS Message, WhatsApp Direct Chat, Google Maps Location, vCard Digital Business Card, Bitcoin Crypto Address, UPI Payment, EasyPaisa, JazzCash, and Calendar Events.
Yes! Visit our dedicated QR Scanner page to scan QR codes using your device's live camera, by uploading an image file, or by drag-and-drop. Scanned history is saved locally in your browser.
Your privacy is 100% protected. All QR code processing happens client-side inside your web browser using HTML5 JavaScript. Your inputs, URLs, passwords, and contact info are never transmitted or stored on any external servers.

Yes! Once the page is loaded, QR Code Generator works fully offline without an active internet connection. You can also install it as a Progressive Web App (PWA) on iOS, Android, and Desktop.
Static QR codes encode your target content directly into the code pattern. They work forever without any server infrastructure. Dynamic QR codes redirect through a short URL, allowing you to edit destination links after printing and track scan analytics.
WiFi QR codes encode your network SSID, security type (WPA/WPA2/WEP), and password into a standardized format. When scanned by an iOS or Android camera, the phone automatically connects to the WiFi network without typing the password!
Payment QR codes encode your merchant VPA, account number, or wallet address. Scanning them with banking, UPI, or crypto wallet apps automatically pre-fills the recipient details and amount for instant payment transfers.
For print materials like business cards or flyers, the minimum recommended physical size is 2 × 2 cm (0.8 × 0.8 inches). For larger posters or billboards, download our SVG vector format which scales to any size with crisp clarity.
QR code scanners require high visual contrast between the foreground pattern (darker) and background (lighter). Ensure your QR code color is significantly darker than the background color for maximum scannability.
