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.

The vCard QR code encodes a full contact card: first name, last name, phone, email and organization. When scanned, the other person adds your contact straight to their address book — with no typing. It is the modern equivalent of a business card.

Print it on your cards, event badges, storefronts or email signatures. Because the code is generated locally, your details never pass through any server. For a physical business card, export as SVG: quality stays perfect in print.
