Best Practices for QR Codes

  • ✓ Test Before Printing: Always test your QR code with multiple devices before mass printing
  • ✓ Maintain Contrast: Ensure good contrast between the QR code and background for better scanning
  • ✓ Size Matters: Print QR codes at least 2cm x 2cm (0.8in x 0.8in) for reliable scanning
  • ✓ Add Context: Include a call-to-action near your QR code (e.g., "Scan for menu")
  • ✓ Use Error Correction: Use higher error correction for outdoor or frequently handled materials
  • ✓ Keep URLs Short: Shorter content creates simpler QR codes that scan faster

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the QR codes generated free to use commercially?

Yes! All QR codes generated with our tool are completely free to use for any purpose, including commercial use. There are no hidden fees, watermarks, or restrictions.

Do QR codes expire?

Static QR codes (like the ones we generate) never expire. They will work forever as long as the destination (like a URL) remains active. However, if you change the destination URL, you'll need to generate a new QR code.

Can I track scans of my QR code?

Static QR codes cannot track scans by themselves. If you need analytics, you can use a URL shortener with tracking (like Bitly) and encode that shortened URL in your QR code. This way, you can track clicks through the URL shortener's dashboard.

What's the difference between PNG and SVG downloads?

PNG is a raster image format perfect for digital use (websites, presentations, social media). SVG is a vector format that can scale to any size without losing quality, making it ideal for print materials like business cards, posters, banners, and T-shirts.

Is my data stored on your servers?

No! All QR code generation happens locally in your browser. Your data never leaves your device, ensuring complete privacy and security. We don't collect, store, or have access to any content you encode in your QR codes.
