QR code generator
Static QR codes for a website, a business card or Wi-Fi, styled your way. No scan tracking: what you type goes in the code itself, not a redirect through us.

How it works
Your code, not a redirect.
No scan tracking
Many generators put their own short link in the code to count scans. These hold your address directly, so a scan goes straight to you and nobody in between keeps a record.
Never expires
A static code has no service behind it to switch off, put behind a subscription or sell. It works for as long as the website, contact or network it holds.
Styled, still scannable
Frames, colours and shapes are checked as you choose them, with a warning when the contrast drops low enough that phone cameras may struggle.
Common questions
Do these QR codes expire?
No. They are static codes: the address, contact card or Wi-Fi details are stored in the code itself, so there is no service in the middle that can be switched off or start charging. A code keeps working for as long as what it points to does.
What does no scan tracking mean?
Many QR generators put their own short link in the code, which counts every scan and forwards the visitor on. These codes hold your address directly, so a scan goes straight to your site and nobody in between learns who scanned it, when or where.
Will a coloured or styled QR code still scan?
Yes, as long as the code is clearly darker than its background. The generator checks the contrast as you choose colours and warns when it is too low, or when the code is lighter than its background, which some phone cameras cannot read.
Should I download PNG or SVG?
SVG for anything printed or resized, since it stays sharp at any size; most design tools open it. PNG for websites, documents and anywhere that only takes images. Choose a larger PNG for print.
Is the Wi-Fi password sent anywhere?
No. Every code is generated in your browser and nothing you type is sent to a server. Bear in mind that anyone who can see a Wi-Fi code can join the network, so put it on a guest network rather than your main one.
How big should a printed QR code be?
At least 2 cm across for something held in the hand, such as a business card, and roughly a tenth of the scanning distance for posters: a code read from 2 metres away should be about 20 cm wide. Codes that hold more, such as a full business card, need more room.
