QR Code Generator

These are static QR codes: the data is encoded in the pattern itself, so there is no account, no tracking redirect and nothing that can expire or stop working.

How to use the qr code generator

Choose what the code should contain – a URL, Wi-Fi details, a phone number and so on.

Fill in the fields and adjust colours, size and error correction.

Download as PNG for print or SVG for scaling.

Static codes with no redirect and no account.

Static codes never expire

Many free QR generators produce a code pointing at their own short link, which then redirects to your destination. That lets them count scans – and it means your printed code stops working the day they change their pricing, shut down or decide your free plan has ended. Businesses have had to reprint entire menu runs because of it. Every code made here encodes your data directly, so it works forever, with no dependency on us.

Choosing an error correction level

QR codes carry redundant data so they still scan when partly damaged or obscured. Level L tolerates about 7% damage and makes the smallest, least dense code; M handles 15% and is the sensible default; Q and H handle 25% and 30% and are what you want if you plan to place a logo in the middle or print on a surface that will get scuffed, wet or folded. Higher correction means a denser pattern, so keep the printed size generous.

Printing QR codes that actually scan

Keep the quiet zone – the blank margin around the pattern – at least four modules wide; codes fail more often from a missing margin than from anything else. Print at least 2 × 2 cm for close scanning, and scale up roughly one centimetre for every additional 10 cm of scanning distance. Keep strong contrast between foreground and background, and never invert to a light pattern on a dark background, which many scanners refuse. Always test with two or three real phones before committing to a print run.

Frequently asked questions

Are these QR codes free for commercial use?

Yes. QR code is an open standard – use the codes you generate on products, packaging, menus and signage with no licence fee.

Do the QR codes expire?

Never. These are static codes with the data encoded directly in the pattern, so there is no link that can break and no account to maintain.

How do I make a Wi-Fi QR code?

Choose the Wi-Fi type, enter the network name, password and security type. Guests scan it and connect without typing the password.

What size should I print a QR code?

At least 2 × 2 cm for close-up scanning, and roughly 1 cm larger for every extra 10 cm of scanning distance. Keep a clear margin around it.

Can I add a logo to the middle?

Yes – download the SVG or PNG and place your logo over the centre in any editor. Use error correction level H so it still scans.

Should I download PNG or SVG?

PNG for screens and quick printing, SVG for professional print or any use where it will be resized – SVG stays sharp at any scale.

Can I track how many scans a code gets?

Not with a static code. If you need analytics, point the QR at a URL you control and measure visits there.
