Free QR code generator

Type a link, and the code is there. Change its colour, put it on a poster, a menu or a business card, and download it. The code holds the link itself, so it keeps working for as long as the page it points to does: nothing to renew, nothing that counts the scans.

How to make a QR code

  1. Press Make a QR code. A square page opens with an empty code in the middle and a field for the link in the bar.
  2. Type or paste the link: a website, a menu, a booking page, a form. Plain text works too.
  3. Pick its colour and its background in the bar. Keep it dark on light: scanners read that best.
  4. Add words around it, such as "Scan for the menu", or drop it onto any template.
  5. Press Download and choose PNG, JPG, PDF or SVG.

Made for print

PDF and SVG keep the code as vector shapes, so it stays sharp at any size, from a sticker to a window poster. A quiet border of white is built into the code, so it still reads when it sits right up against a photo.

Questions

Do these QR codes expire?

No. The code holds your link directly; there's no redirect in between that could stop working or be switched off. It works for as long as the link does.

Can I change the link later?

In Pozzly, yes: open the design and type the new link, and the code changes with it. Codes already printed hold the old link, so print again after a change.

Is there a limit on scans or codes?

No. Make as many codes as you like; nobody counts the scans.

What size should a printed QR code be?

At least 2 × 2 cm (about ¾ inch) for something held in a hand, like a business card or a menu. For a poster read from a few metres away, make it about a tenth of that distance across.
