QR Code Making

About QR Code Making

A QR code generator that does one job: it turns what you type into a code you can print, without sending your content anywhere.

What it is

QR Code Making is a free tool for making QR codes. It offers 10 kinds of code, each with its own page that explains what it stores and answers the questions people ask: URL to QR Code, Wi-Fi QR Code Generator, Text to QR Code, Email QR Code Generator, Phone Number QR Code, SMS QR Code Generator, vCard QR Code Generator, WhatsApp QR Code Generator, QR Code for a Location and QR Code for Events. There is also a full generator with all of them on one page.

How your content is handled

The squares are calculated by JavaScript in your browser. What you type, and any logo you choose, is used by the open page to draw the code and is never uploaded, saved or logged. There are no accounts and no database. You can confirm this in your browser’s developer tools: the Network tab shows no request carrying your content while you use the generator.

Static codes

A code made here contains your information itself, such as the link or the Wi-Fi details, and not an address on a service that forwards visitors. It therefore keeps working for as long as the information is valid, cannot be switched off, and cannot be tracked. The price of that is that a printed code cannot be edited. Where content may change, a link to a page you control is the better choice.

What is checked

Every kind of code is tested by generating it and reading it back with a separate decoder, including accents, emoji and the characters that formats such as Wi-Fi and vCard treat specially. The same check runs live under the preview, so a design with weak contrast or an oversized logo is flagged before you download it. It does not replace scanning the final print with a phone, and the pages say so.

How it is funded

QR Code Making is free to use and may be supported by advertising. Advertisements are labelled, kept away from the generator, the preview and the download buttons, and are never placed where they could be mistaken for a control. See the Privacy Policy for what advertising partners may collect when ads are shown.
