Common payload types
QR codes can store URLs, plain text, email links, phone numbers, SMS drafts, and Wi-Fi connection strings. The scanner decides how to handle the payload.
Create downloadable QR codes locally in your browser for links, text, contact details, Wi-Fi, and common developer use cases.

Use QR codes for simple scan-to-open workflows while keeping the encoded content clear, intentional, and safe to share.
QR codes can store URLs, plain text, email links, phone numbers, SMS drafts, and Wi-Fi connection strings. The scanner decides how to handle the payload.
Larger images are easier to scan from signs, slides, and print pieces. A quiet margin around the code helps scanners detect the QR boundary.
Higher error correction can survive more damage or visual noise, but it also increases QR density. Use M or Q for most digital and print uses.
PNG is convenient for documents, chat, and image editors. SVG stays sharp for print layouts, web pages, and design systems.
Wi-Fi payloads encode the SSID, security type, password, and hidden-network flag. Anyone who scans the code may be able to join that network.
Avoid encoding tokens, private URLs, customer data, unreleased campaign links, or Wi-Fi passwords unless the QR image will be shared only with trusted people.
No. Payload building and QR rendering happen locally in your browser. The tool does not call an external QR API.
No. URL validation only checks the local URL shape and protocol. It never fetches the URL, opens it, or follows redirects.
Use M for most everyday QR codes. Use Q or H when the code may be printed small, handled roughly, or placed near visual clutter.
Choose PNG for quick sharing and raster documents. Choose SVG when you need a scalable vector file for websites, print, or design tools.
They are convenient but sensitive. A Wi-Fi QR code can reveal the network password to anyone with access to the image.
