About this tool
QR codes encode URLs, Wi‑Fi credentials, contact cards, or plain text into a scannable image. Generate a PNG locally without tracking or server uploads.
Always verify encoded URLs before printing—QR payloads are not human-readable at a glance.
Common use cases
- Linking print materials to landing pages
- Sharing Wi‑Fi login details at events
- Payment or menu links on signage
- Encoding vCard contact details on business cards
How to use
- Enter URL, text, or structured payload (Wi‑Fi, etc.).
- Adjust size or error correction if options exist.
- Preview the QR code on screen.
- Download PNG and test with your phone camera before printing.

Understanding the result
- Higher error correction allows partial damage but increases module density.
- Longer payloads produce busier QR patterns—keep URLs short when possible.
- Contrast matters: dark modules on light background scan best.
- Test scan distance and size on a printed proof before mass production.
