What is a QR Code?

A QR code (Quick Response code) is a two-dimensional barcode that stores data in a grid of black and white squares. Invented in 1994 by Denso Wave for tracking automotive parts, QR codes have become ubiquitous โ€” used for URLs, payments, Wi-Fi sharing, contact cards, event tickets, and more. QR codes feature built-in error correction (Reed-Solomon), meaning they remain scannable even when partially damaged. The four levels โ€” L (7%), M (15%), Q (25%), H (30%) โ€” determine how much of the code can be corrupted while remaining readable.

How to Create a QR Code

1

Enter your text, URL, or data into the input field. The QR code generates in real-time as you type.

2

Customize the appearance โ€” change colors, adjust size, and select error correction level (higher levels allow for more styling but make the code denser).

3

Download the QR code as PNG (for digital use) or SVG (for print, scales without losing quality). No watermarks, no limits.
