Step 1 — Choose Your QR Code Type
Open the QR Generator and select the data type that matches your goal. The most popular choice is URL, but you can also encode WiFi credentials, contact cards (vCard), emails, SMS, phone numbers, calendar events, GPS coordinates, or plain text.
Each type has a dedicated form that validates your input and structures the data according to the relevant standard, so the resulting code works on every scanner.
Keep It Short
Step 2 — Enter Your Data
Type or paste the content you want to encode. The live preview renders your QR code in real time — no page reload required. You can watch the pattern change character by character.
Optional: customise colours, add a logo, or adjust the error correction level. For a quick code, the defaults work perfectly.
Step 3 — Download and Use
Click Download and choose your format:
- PNG — ideal for screens, social media, and email signatures. We recommend 1024 px for sharp rendering on retina displays.
- SVG — vector format that scales to any size without losing quality. Best for business cards, posters, and commercial printing.
