QR Code Generator

Free QR code generator for links, menus, and packaging

QR codes turn a URL or short message into a square pattern phones can scan. This free generator creates a downloadable PNG you can place on menus, posters, product packaging, business cards, and event signs — without an account.

A QR code that points to a fixed URL does not expire by itself. If the destination page moves or goes offline, scans fail until you update the destination or print a new code. Always test with more than one phone before a large print run.

How to create a QR code online

1. Enter the URL or text you want the code to open
2. Generate and preview the QR code
3. Download the PNG
4. Print or publish at a size that scans from the expected distance

Practical uses for small businesses

• Digital menus for restaurants and cafés
• Product pages and warranty registration links
• Event check-in or feedback forms
• Payment or tip page shortcuts
• Wi‑Fi join details for guests (where appropriate)

Design tips for reliable scans

• Leave quiet space (margin) around the code
• Keep the code square — do not stretch it
• Use high contrast (dark modules on a light background)
• For posters, print larger and test from viewing distance
