A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that stores information like text, URLs, contact details, or WiFi credentials. Smartphones can scan QR codes with their cameras to instantly access the encoded content. Originally invented in Japan in 1994 for automotive parts tracking, QR codes have become ubiquitous in marketing, payments, restaurant menus, and digital tickets.

Do my QR codes expire?

No. Our QR codes are static — the data is embedded directly in the QR pattern itself, not stored on any server. This means they will work forever, as long as the encoded URL or content still exists. There is no dependency on our server, so you can print, share, or archive them without any risk of expiration.

Is my data private and safe?

Yes. All QR generation happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript — your text, URLs, WiFi passwords, contact details, and any other data never leave your device. No data is uploaded to any server, logged, or shared. You can safely generate QR codes for sensitive information like WiFi passwords or personal contact details.

What is error correction level in QR codes?

Error correction is how much damage a QR code can sustain and still be scannable. Level L (~7% recovery) is smallest but most fragile. Level M (~15%) is standard. Level Q (~25%) is good for print where logos may overlay. Level H (~30%) is best for places with wear, or where a logo overlays the center. Higher levels produce denser QR patterns but are more robust.

Can I use QR codes for my business commercially?

Yes, absolutely. Our QR codes have no licensing restrictions, no watermarks, and no attribution requirements. You can use them on menus, business cards, flyers, packaging, product labels, event tickets, or anywhere else — for both personal and commercial purposes. Many businesses generate QR codes here for restaurant menus, WiFi access, and marketing campaigns.

Q: How do I scan a QR code?

Q: What size should I print my QR code?

For reliable scanning, QR codes should be at least 2 × 2 cm (0.8 × 0.8 inch) for close-up scanning, and larger for distance scanning. As a general rule, the QR code width should be at least 1/10th of the scanning distance. For a poster read from 10 feet away, use a QR code at least 30 cm (12 inches) wide. Download as PNG for print, or SVG for scalable vector quality.
