Free QR Code Generator, No Sign-Up Needed

How it works

  1. Enter your link or text in the box above.
  2. Generate your QR code and check the preview.
  3. Download the image and use it on print or on screen.

The code you get is a static QR code. That means the information is stored directly inside the image, so it keeps working for as long as the link or text it points to still exists.

What can you use a QR code for?

  • Sharing your website, portfolio or social media page
  • Opening a WhatsApp chat with your business number
  • Letting guests join your Wi-Fi without typing a password
  • Showing a restaurant or shop menu
  • Adding a quick link to flyers, posters, business cards and receipts
  • Sharing contact details or event information

Tips for a QR code that scans every time

  • Keep strong contrast. Dark code on a light background works best.
  • Leave a clear blank border around the code.
  • Do not stretch or squash the image.
  • Test the code with two or three different phones before you print.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is SnapQR really free?

Yes. You can generate and download as many QR codes as you like at no cost.

Do my QR codes expire?

No. These are static codes, so they never expire. They only stop being useful if the page they point to is removed.

Do you store my links or text?

Please read our Privacy page for the full details on what we collect and how it is used.

Can I use the QR codes for business and print?

Yes. Download the image and use it on flyers, menus, packaging and more. Always test a printed code before you produce a large batch.

What should I do if my QR code will not scan?

Check the contrast, make sure the code is not too small, and avoid placing it on a curved or shiny surface. Our print size guide has more detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is SnapQR really free?

Yes. Every feature on SnapQR is free to use, with no limits on how many QR codes you create and no watermarks on your downloads.

Do SnapQR QR codes expire?

No. SnapQR creates static QR codes, which store your content directly inside the pattern. They keep working for as long as the link or text they contain is valid.

Are my QR codes stored anywhere?

No. QR codes are generated in your browser on your own device. The text or URL you enter is never sent to or stored on our servers.

What size should I download?

For screens and digital use, 256–512 px is plenty. For print, choose 1024 px and make sure the printed code is at least 2 × 2 cm (about 0.8 inches).

Which error correction level should I choose?

M is a good default. Choose Q or H if your code will be printed on surfaces that may get scratched or partly covered.
