What you can put in a QR code
A QR code just stores text, so a QR code generator can encode almost anything a phone can act on:
- A website or blog link, the most common use.
- A phone number or email, so people can tap to call or write.
- Wi-Fi details, a menu, a location, or a payment link.
- Plain text like a product code or a short message.
For print, download at 512 pixels or larger so the code stays crisp. Keep strong contrast, a dark code on a light background reads best, and always scan-test with a phone before you send a design to the printer.
Frequently asked questions
Is this QR code generator free?
Yes. It’s completely free with no sign-up and no watermark on your code. You can make and download as many QR codes as you want.
Do the QR codes expire?
No. These are static QR codes, which means the link or text is baked into the code itself. It never expires and keeps working as long as the destination (like your website) stays online.
Can I change the color of my QR code?
Yes. Pick any color for the code and the background. Just keep enough contrast between them, since a low-contrast code can fail to scan. Dark on light is the safest choice.
What size should I download for printing?
Download at 512 or 1024 pixels for print. A larger file stays sharp when scaled up on a poster or flyer. For on-screen use, 256 pixels is usually enough.
