Embeddable HTTP API

The basic generator is also exposed over HTTP: handy for embedding a QR code directly in an email, a page or a script, with no JavaScript. Open CORS, no key, cached response.

Note: the API returns a "simple" QR (solid colors, square modules). Advanced styles — shapes, gradients, logo, frame — are available only in the generator above, in the browser.

Frequently asked questions

How do I turn a link into a QR code?

Paste your URL, customize the look if you wish, and download the QR code in PNG or SVG. Anyone who scans it opens the link.

Will the QR code keep working if I change my website?

The QR points to the exact URL you entered. If that URL stays valid it keeps working forever; if you might change the destination, use a permanent short link.

Is the QR code generator free?

Yes, completely free, no sign-up, no watermark and no limit.

Do the generated QR codes expire?

No. The QR code is static and never expires.
