Free QR code generator

A free QR code for any address, that never expires.

Type an address and your code is ready to download as a PNG or an SVG. No account, no watermark, and nothing you type leaves your device.

Any web address, or a mailto: or tel: link. It’s drawn right here and never leaves your device.

Your code appears here as you type.

Why this code keeps working

  • It points straight at your address

    The code holds your address itself, not a short link of ours in front of it. There’s no redirect to expire, be switched off or start charging, so the code works for as long as your address does.

  • Nothing is sent or stored

    The code is drawn in your own browser. The address you type isn’t sent to us or anyone else, and we keep no record of it.

  • Works offline once loaded

    Once this page has opened, you can make codes with no connection at all, on a phone in a basement or a laptop on a plane.

  • Made for printing

    Black on white with a clear border, which cameras read best. The SVG stays sharp at any size; the PNG is about 1200 pixels a side.

Questions about QR codes

Is this QR code generator really free?
Yes. There’s no sign-up, no limit on how many codes you make, no watermark and nothing to pay, now or later.
Will my QR code expire?
No. It holds your address directly, with no short link of ours in between, so nothing on our side can stop it working. It works for as long as the address it opens does.
Do you see or keep the address I type?
No. The code is made in your browser, and the address never leaves your device.
Can I see how many people scanned it?
Not from this code, because nothing of ours sits between the scan and your address. A Portage page’s own QR codes are counted as visits, each printed piece with its own word.
Should I download the PNG or the SVG?
The SVG for anything you’re designing or printing large, since it stays sharp at any size. The PNG for anything else, like a document or a slide.

Want to know which poster got scanned?

A free Portage page has its own QR code and a print kit of posters, table tents and cards, each counted on its own, with no cookies.
