QR Code Generator FAQ

Common qr code generator questions

How do I generate a QR code online for free?

Type or paste your text, URL, phone number, or email into the QR generator. The QR code is created instantly in your browser. Right-click the generated image and choose Save Image As, or use the download button to save as PNG. No signup or watermark.

What can I encode in a QR code?

Anything that fits in text: website URLs, plain text, phone numbers (tel:), email addresses (mailto:), Wi-Fi credentials, vCards, calendar events, app store links, and more. Maximum capacity depends on data type — typically 2,953 bytes (alphanumeric) or 7,089 numeric digits.

Are QR codes generated by this tool free to use commercially?

Yes. QR codes themselves are an open ISO standard (ISO/IEC 18004) and free to use commercially. The QR codes you generate here have no licensing or attribution requirement and can be printed on products, business cards, packaging, or marketing materials.

Do generated QR codes ever expire?

No. The QR code itself is just a visual encoding of the data — it never expires. However, if the QR code points to a URL, that URL may go offline. For long-term use, point QR codes at stable URLs or your own domain rather than third-party shorteners.

Is my data sent anywhere when I generate a QR code?

No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. The text you enter is never sent to any server. You can verify this by opening browser dev tools and watching the network tab while you type.

Can I customize colors or add a logo to the QR code?

The basic generator produces standard black-on-white QR codes that scan reliably with any reader. For colored or logo-overlaid QR codes, ensure high contrast (avoid light colors on white backgrounds) and keep the logo small (under 20% of code area) to avoid breaking scan reliability.
