What is a QR code generator?
This free QR code generator instantly creates the right QR code for your purpose — a URL, Wi-Fi login details, a business card (contact), email, phone number, SMS, calendar event, or map location. Whether you need a Wi-Fi password QR code, a QR code for a business card, or one for a menu, poster, or slide deck, you can create it right here with no software to install. Every QR code can be downloaded for free as a PNG or SVG file, and everything is processed instantly in your browser.
How to use it
First choose the type of QR code you need (URL, Text, Wi-Fi, Contact, Email, Phone, SMS, Event, or Location), then fill in the matching fields. A live preview of the QR code appears below as you type. Once you're happy with the result, click the "PNG" or "SVG" button to download it. If your input is too long to fit in a QR code, you'll see a message letting you know.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this free to use?
- Yes. You can create and download QR codes for free, with no account required.
- What formats can I download?
- Both PNG and SVG. PNG works great for documents and printouts, while SVG is a scalable vector format that stays crisp at any size.
- Is there a limit to how much text I can encode?
- QR codes can only hold so much data. If your text is too long, you'll see a message on screen — try a shorter URL or trimming the text.
- Can I make a QR code for Wi-Fi or a business card?
- Yes. Pick Wi-Fi, Contact, Email, Phone, SMS, Event, or Location from the category tabs at the top to create a QR code for that specific purpose. For example, a Wi-Fi QR code will connect the device to that network as soon as it's scanned.
