Is this QR code generator really free?

Yes. No account, no watermark, unlimited generation. The QR image is rendered locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Can I download a print-ready QR code?

Yes. Export PNG at up to 2048px for print, or SVG for infinite scaling on posters, packaging and signage. Use high error correction and keep quiet-zone margin for reliable scans.

What content can I encode?

Website URLs, plain text, Wi-Fi credentials (WPA/WEP/open), email addresses with subject/body, phone numbers and SMS. Switch tabs to change the payload format.

Do custom colors still scan?

Yes, as long as contrast stays high. Dark dots on a light background scan best. Avoid yellow-on-white or inverted colors, and always test-scan before printing.

Can I track QR scans with Slugy?

Yes. Shorten your destination with Slugy first, then paste the short link here — scans show up in your link analytics. Create a free account to get branded links and scan analytics.

When to use each format

Link QR codes

Packaging, posters, receipts, event signage — anywhere typing fails. Shorten the destination with Slugy first so you can edit it later without reprinting.

Wi-Fi QR codes

Cafés, Airbnbs, offices. Guests scan and join instantly instead of typing long passwords at the counter.

Email & text codes

Pre-fill a message for support desks, review requests and referral cards — higher response rates than a bare address.

FAQ

QR generator questions

Why generate QR codes from short links?

A QR code is only as useful as the URL inside it. Pasting a long destination produces a dense code that scans poorly at small sizes — and tells you nothing afterwards. Generate the code from a Slugy short link instead: the code stays simple, you can repoint the destination without reprinting, and every scan shows up in your link analytics with device and country breakdowns. One code per placement (packaging, poster, event badge) keeps scan counts comparable. The full method is covered in the QR analytics guide.
