Turn any text or link into a scannable QR code.

Download PNG

What does this QR code generator do?

It turns any URL, text, phone number, email, or WiFi credential into a scannable QR code as a high resolution PNG. Pick a size and brand colors, click generate, and download. Use the result on flyers, packaging, business cards, menu printouts, or trade show banners.

Why are QR codes still useful in 2026?

Phones now scan QR codes natively from the camera app. That made them mainstream again. They cut friction between offline and online, push users to a website with one tap, and let you measure print campaigns by pointing the code at a tracked URL.

How do you use this tool?

  1. Paste the URL or text you want encoded.
  2. Set the size and pick foreground and background colors that match your brand.
  3. Click Generate QR.
  4. Download the PNG and drop it into your design.

When should you brand the QR colors?

Plain black on white scans most reliably. If you want brand colors, keep strong contrast between foreground and background. Light grey on white will fail to scan. Always test with at least two phones before sending to print.

Got more questions?

Will the QR code expire?
No, the code itself does not expire. If you encode a URL, the code keeps working as long as that URL is live.
Can I track scans?
Yes by pointing the code at a UTM tagged URL. Use the UTM Link Builder in this same tools section to build the tracking URL first.
What is the best size for printing?
A QR code should be at least three centimeters wide on print. Pick the 500 or 800 pixel size for sharper output.
Can I encode WiFi credentials?
Yes, paste a string like WIFI:T:WPA;S:MyNetwork;P:MyPassword;; into the input. Phones will join the network on scan.
