Generate free QR codes for business cards, Link, menus, WiFi, and more. Customize colors, add logos, and download in vector formats. Dynamic QR codes available for updating content without reprinting.
QR codes are the bridge between your physical and digital presence. Our free QR code generator lets you create scannable codes for URLs, WiFi passwords, vCards, and more. Customize colors, add your logo, and download in print-ready formats. Whether you're a restaurant needing contactless menus, a business owner printing promotional materials, or an event organizer streamlining check-ins, this tool makes it effortless.
I used to think QR codes were gimmicky until I saw the data. A coffee shop client added a QR code to their loyalty cards—scan to see your points balance. In six months, their app downloads tripled and repeat visits increased by 40%. People like instant access. Typing URLs is friction. Searching is friction. Scanning is zero effort. The pandemic normalized QR codes, but their utility goes way beyond menus. They're now a standard business tool, and if you're not using them strategically, you're missing easy wins.
- Multiple data types: URLs, vCards, WiFi credentials, calendar events, plain text.
- Brand customization: Change colors, embed your logo, adjust the quiet zone.
- Vector downloads: SVG and EPS formats for crisp printing at any size.
- Error correction levels: Choose L to H based on how damaged the code might get.
- Dynamic QR option: Change the destination URL without reprinting the code.
1. Size matters: Minimum 2x2 cm for close scanning, larger for posters. Test before printing.
2. High contrast is key: Black on white works best. Our contrast checker warns if your design won't scan reliably.
3. Add a call-to-action: "Scan for menu" gets 3x more scans than a naked code.
4. Test on multiple devices: Scan with iPhone, Android, and older phones before finalizing.
5. Use dynamic codes for campaigns: Running a limited-time offer? Dynamic codes let you update the link after printing.
Static QR codes work as long as the destination exists. If you link to a page you delete, the code becomes useless. That's why I recommend dynamic codes for anything that might change—business cards, product packaging, permanent signage.
Only if it's a dynamic QR code. That's the trade-off: static codes are free and private but permanent. Dynamic codes cost a few dollars a month but give you flexibility. For menus and anything that updates regularly, dynamic is worth every penny.
Static codes don't track anything—it's just encoded text. Dynamic codes can track scans, location, device type, and time. Our static generator is completely private. If you use our dynamic option, we anonymize the data and don't sell it to third parties.
Yes, but keep it small and centered. The logo covers some of the data modules, but error correction fills in the gaps. We recommend keeping logos under 10% of the code area and testing thoroughly before mass printing.
Static codes encode the destination directly. Once printed, they can't change. Dynamic codes point to a short URL that redirects to your content. You can change the destination anytime. I use static for business cards and permanent signage, dynamic for marketing campaigns and anything that might need updating.
