Turn any website link into a QR code.

Paste the full link, or just type the domain — https:// is added automatically.

Higher levels survive more damage and bigger logos — at the cost of a denser code.

Waiting for valid content

Free, no watermark, never expires. SVG scales to any size for print.

Turn any website address into a scannable QR code in seconds. When someone scans it with their phone camera, your page opens immediately — no typing, no searching, no app to install.

URL QR codes are the most common type for good reason: they work everywhere. Print them on flyers, business cards, posters, packaging or table tents, and every scan takes the reader exactly where you want them.

Because the link is encoded directly in the QR code itself, it never expires and doesn't depend on any server. As long as the page exists, the code works.

Tips for better-scanning URL QR codes

Shorter links produce simpler QR codes with larger modules, which scan faster and more reliably. If your URL is long — for example with tracking parameters — consider shortening it first. Every character you remove makes the code easier to scan from a distance.

Use HTTPS links wherever possible. Some phones warn before opening insecure HTTP pages, which costs you scans. If you print the code, test it at the actual printed size before mass production — see our QR code size guide for recommended dimensions.

Frequently asked questions

Do URL QR codes expire?
No. The link is encoded directly inside the QR code, so it works forever — there is no account, no subscription and no service that can switch it off. The only thing that can break it is the page itself moving or going offline.
Can I change the link later?
Not in a static QR code — the destination is physically encoded in the pattern. If the link changes, generate a new code (it takes seconds here). Codes whose destination can be edited later are called dynamic QR codes and require a redirect service.
Does it matter if my URL is long?
It works either way, but shorter URLs create QR codes with fewer, larger modules that scan more easily — especially from a distance or on small prints. Long URLs with many tracking parameters still work fine; they just produce a denser pattern.
Do I need to add https:// myself?
No. If you type a plain address like example.com/page, we automatically encode it as https://example.com/page. Full URLs starting with http:// or https:// are used exactly as you enter them.
Can I use tracking parameters like UTM tags?
Yes. Any valid URL works, including UTM parameters and anchors. Keep in mind that every extra character makes the QR pattern slightly denser.
Can I print URL QR codes commercially?
Yes — on flyers, packaging, menus, business cards, anything. The codes you generate here are free of watermarks and free for commercial use.
