How to create a free QR Code

Generate professional QR codes in 3 simple steps

1

Choose your QR Code type

Select the QR Code type that fits your content—for example, a website URL, a phone contact, or a downloadable file. Use a static QR Code for information that won't change, such as a company homepage. Choose a dynamic QR Code when you need to update the destination later or track how often the code is scanned.

2

Add details and customize

Add elements like your brand's primary color, company logo, or a frame with a call-to-action to make your QR Code recognizable and professional. For example, use a blue border and your logo at the center to reinforce brand identity. Enter details such as the destination link, QR code type, and preview the design in real time to ensure everything looks right before you download it.

3

Select download format

Choose the format that best fits your use case: Use PNG for presentations or websites. Choose SVG if you need a scalable version for graphic design. Select PDF for high-resolution print materials like flyers or posters.
