What Is a QR Code Generator?
A QR code generator converts text, URLs, contact details, or other data into a scannable two-dimensional barcode. QR codes are used everywhere — from restaurant menus and business cards to product packaging and event tickets. Any modern smartphone can read them instantly using the built-in camera app.
Our QR Code Generator lets you create codes for six common data types: URLs, plain text, email addresses, phone numbers, SMS messages, and WiFi credentials. Select a template, fill in the fields, and watch the QR code render in real-time on an HTML5 canvas.
Customize the output with foreground and background color pickers, a size slider from 200 to 600 pixels, and four error correction levels (L, M, Q, H). Higher error correction means the code can still be scanned even if part of it is damaged or covered — useful for printed materials.
Download the finished QR code as a PNG for web and social media, or as an SVG for scalable vector use in print and design. Everything runs entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server, no account is required, and nothing is stored after you close the tab.
Discover Features
Multiple data types, custom colors, live preview, and instant download — all on your device
Multiple Data Types
Generate QR codes for URLs, plain text, email addresses, phone numbers, SMS messages, and WiFi credentials. Quick templates pre-fill the right format so you never have to remember QR encoding syntax.
Custom Colors & Branding
Pick any foreground and background color using the built-in color pickers. Match your brand palette, create inverted codes, or use high-contrast combos for maximum scan reliability.
Error Correction Levels
Choose from four error correction levels (L, M, Q, H) that let scanners recover data even if part of the QR code is damaged or obscured. Higher levels add redundancy at the cost of a denser code.
PNG & SVG Download
Download your QR code as a pixel-perfect PNG for print and web, or as a scalable SVG for vector workflows. Both formats are generated instantly on your device with no server round-trip.
Live Preview
See the QR code update in real-time as you type, change colors, or adjust the size slider. No need to click a generate button — the preview responds to every keystroke with a short debounce.
Privacy-First
Everything runs entirely in your browser. Your data is never sent to any server. Close the tab and nothing remains — ideal for encoding passwords, private URLs, or sensitive contact details.
How to Generate a QR Code
Four steps: pick a type, enter content, customize, and download
Choose a data type
Pick a template — URL, Text, Email, Phone, SMS, or WiFi. The tool shows the right input fields for each type automatically.
Enter your content
Type or paste the data you want to encode. For WiFi, fill in the SSID, password, and encryption type. The QR code updates live as you type.
Customize appearance
Adjust the size slider, pick foreground and background colors, and select an error correction level. The preview reflects changes instantly.
Download your QR code
Click "Download PNG" for a raster image or "Download SVG" for a scalable vector. Both are generated on your device — no server upload.
Use Cases
Common scenarios where QR codes simplify sharing and access
Website & Social Media
Put a QR code on business cards, flyers, or posters that links directly to your website, portfolio, or social media profile. Visitors scan instead of typing long URLs.
WiFi Guest Access
Generate a WiFi QR code with your SSID and password. Print it and place it in your lobby, Airbnb, or office. Guests scan to connect — no need to share passwords verbally.
Email & Contact Sharing
Encode a mailto link with pre-filled subject and body, or a phone number with the tel: scheme. Recipients scan to compose an email or dial — zero manual entry.
Event & Ticket Management
Embed event URLs or ticket IDs in QR codes for quick check-in. Attendees present the code on their phone, and staff scan it instead of searching lists manually.
Product & Packaging
Add QR codes to product packaging that link to manuals, warranty registration, or support pages. Customers get instant access without searching your website.
Education & Classroom
Teachers can generate QR codes linking to quizzes, resources, or videos. Print them on worksheets or display on slides — students scan to open the material instantly.
