QR Generator

Create custom QR codes (PNG & SVG)

Generate QR codes for URLs, text, WhatsApp, Wi‑Fi, email, SMS, phone, and vCards. Customize colors and error correction, add a centered logo, and download high-quality files that look premium and scan reliably.

Choose the content format so scanners interpret it correctly.
Higher levels help scanning even if the code is partly damaged.

Design & customization

Keep strong contrast for fast scanning.
Avoid patterned or noisy backgrounds.
Gradients can look premium, but always test scanning on real devices.

Logo

Use a simple, high-contrast logo for best results.
Keep it modest. Too large = difficult scanning.
Encoded payload (what scanners read)

Best practices for QR codes that scan fast

1) Keep contrast high

Dark foreground on a light background is the easiest to scan. If you use brand colors, choose a deep shade for the dots and a near-white background. Avoid low-contrast combos like light gray on white.

2) Don’t kill the quiet zone

The margin around the QR (quiet zone) helps scanners detect edges quickly. Use a margin of at least 8px in digital designs, and keep extra space for print.

3) Choose error correction intentionally

If you add a logo, consider Q or H. For clean designs without logos, M is usually enough. Higher levels can require a slightly larger code for the same data.

4) Test on real conditions

Test scanning in bright light, indoor light, and from the distance your users will scan. If printing, test with your actual paper/material. A QR that scans on-screen may fail on textured surfaces.

5) Use short links when possible

Longer text creates denser QR patterns that can be harder to scan at small sizes. If you need a long URL, use a short link that you control, or keep the code physically larger.

6) Be clear with your CTA

Next to the QR, add a simple call-to-action like “Scan to view menu” or “Scan to download the app.” People scan more when they know exactly what they’ll get.

Safety: If you generate a QR for payments or logins, add trust signals (domain text, brand name, and instructions) so users can verify they’re scanning the right code.
