What Is the QR Code Generator?
The QR Code Generator is a free, browser-based tool that creates high-quality QR codes for URLs, plain text, vCards (contact info), WiFi credentials, and more.

No signup, no watermark, no usage limits — generate as many QR codes as you need, all processed locally in your browser.
Who Should Use This Tool?
This tool is for small business owners creating marketing materials, event organizers generating check-in codes, restaurants displaying WiFi QR codes, real estate agents linking to property listings, and anyone who needs a quick, free QR code. If you need to connect physical materials (flyers, business cards, packaging) to digital content, QR codes are the simplest solution.
How Does This Tool Work?
Select a QR code type (URL, text, vCard, WiFi), enter your data, choose a size (256px to 1024px) and error correction level (L: 7%, M: 15%, Q: 25%, H: 30%). The QR code is generated instantly in your browser using a pure JavaScript library — no server calls. Download as PNG with one click. Higher error correction allows the code to remain scannable even if partially damaged or covered.
How Do You Create a Restaurant WiFi QR Code?
A cafe wants to let customers connect to WiFi without typing a password: • QR type: WiFi • SSID: "CafeGuestNetwork" • Password: "espresso2026" • Encryption: WPA2 • Error correction: H (30%) — survives a coffee stain on the printed sign • Customers scan the QR code with their phone camera and tap "Connect" — no password entry needed.
Frequently asked
Is the QR code generator really free?
Yes, 100% free with no signup, no watermark, and no usage limits. Generate as many QR codes as you need. All processing happens in your browser — no server calls, no data collection.
What types of QR codes can I create?
You can generate QR codes for: URLs (website links), plain text, vCards (contact information that saves to the phone's address book), WiFi credentials (auto-connect when scanned), email addresses, phone numbers, and SMS messages.
What error correction level should I choose?
Error correction allows a QR code to remain scannable even if partially damaged. Level L (7% recovery) is fine for digital display. Level M (15%) is standard for printed materials. Level Q (25%) is good for outdoor use. Level H (30%) is best for environments where the code may get dirty or damaged (e.g., restaurant tables, packaging).
Do the QR codes expire?
No. QR codes generated by this tool are static — the data is encoded directly in the QR code image. They never expire and do not require any service to remain active. However, if you encode a URL, the QR code will stop working if the destination website goes down.
Can I use these QR codes commercially?
Yes. QR codes generated by this tool are free to use for any purpose, including commercial use. There are no licensing restrictions, no attribution required, and no royalties.
What size should I make my QR code?
For digital display, 256px is sufficient. For printed materials, use at least 512px (or 1024px for large signs). The minimum printable size is about 1×1 inch (2.5×2.5 cm) at 300 DPI. Always test your QR code by scanning it with a phone before printing in bulk.
