What is QR Code?

A QR code is a 2D barcode that phones scan instantly to open a URL, read text, or join a Wi-Fi network. Generating one lets you bridge print and screens to the digital world — posters, business cards, packaging, menus, and event check-ins. This generator builds the code entirely in your browser and exports crisp PNG (raster) or SVG (vector) files.

How to generate a QR code

  1. 1Enter the content — a URL, plain text, or Wi-Fi details.
  2. 2Pick an error-correction level (higher survives more damage but is denser).
  3. 3Preview the QR code, then download it as PNG or SVG.
  4. 4Test the scan with a phone before printing or publishing.

Use Cases

Link print to web

Put a scannable URL on a poster, flyer, or business card that opens your site instantly.

Share Wi-Fi access

Generate a Wi-Fi QR code so guests connect without typing the password.

Speed up event check-in

Encode ticket or check-in URLs so staff can scan attendees quickly.

Key Concepts

Error correction levels
L≈7%, M≈15%, Q≈25%, H≈30% of the code can be damaged and still scan. Higher levels add redundancy (denser code).
PNG vs SVG
PNG is a fixed-resolution raster image; SVG is vector and stays sharp at any size — best for print and large formats.
Quiet zone
The blank margin around a QR code. Scanners need it; cropping too tightly can make a code unreadable.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use level H when the code will be printed small or may get dirty/scratched (packaging, outdoors).
  • Prefer SVG for print so the code stays crisp at any size.
  • Keep the quiet-zone margin — don't crop right to the code's edge.
  • Always test a scan on a real phone before mass printing; a broken URL on 1,000 flyers is expensive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data uploaded when generating a QR code?

No. The QR code is generated locally in your browser. Your text or URL never leaves your device.

Which error correction level should I choose?

L = 7% recoverable (smallest), M = 15% (default, good for most cases), Q = 25%, H = 30% (largest, best when printed and may get dirty/scratched).
