Free QR Code Generator
Create scannable QR codes for links, text, Wi-Fi, email, and phone — styled your way, downloaded as PNG.
QR codes for anything, in seconds
QR codes turn a phone camera into a shortcut: one scan opens your link, joins your Wi-Fi, or starts an email. Utilo's free QR code generator covers the five things people actually encode — website URLs, plain text, Wi-Fi credentials, email addresses, and phone numbers — with live preview and full control over colors, size, and error correction.
Everything is generated on your device with an embedded open-source QR engine (MIT licensed), so your links are never sent anywhere. The codes are static, which means they work forever with no subscription and no tracking. Style them to match your brand, download a crisp PNG, and print them on menus, flyers, packaging, or business cards.
For ideas on putting codes to work, see our guide to 10 smart QR code uses for small business — from review collection to Wi-Fi sharing — plus the design rules that make codes people actually scan.
How to use the QR code generator
- Choose a type: pick URL, text, Wi-Fi, email, or phone, then fill in the details.
- Style it: set the code and background colors, image size, and error correction level (use H for print).
- Download: preview the code live, test-scan it with your phone, then download the PNG.
Frequently asked questions
Do QR codes made here expire?
No. These are static QR codes — the data is encoded directly in the pattern, so they keep working forever with no service behind them.
What can I put in a QR code?
Website URLs, plain text, Wi-Fi network credentials (so guests join without typing passwords), email addresses with pre-filled subjects, and phone numbers.
What size should I print a QR code?
At least 2 × 2 cm (about 0.8 × 0.8 in) for close-up scanning. For posters viewed from a distance, make it roughly 10% of the viewing distance, and always test-scan before printing in bulk.
Do I need the internet to generate a code?
Only to load this page. The QR pattern itself is generated locally in your browser by embedded code — nothing is sent to a server.
Can I use these QR codes commercially?
Yes. Codes you generate are yours to use anywhere, including product packaging, restaurant menus, and marketing materials.
