QR Code Generator

Type any text or URL and get a QR code as an SVG image. The output is scalable — it looks crisp at any size. You can configure the error correction level (L, M, Q, H) which controls how much damage the QR code can tolerate while remaining scannable, and customize the foreground and background colors.

Frequently asked questions

1What error correction level should I use?

Level L (7%) is fine for clean digital display. Use M (15%) for general use. Use Q (25%) or H (30%) if the QR code might be printed on a surface that could get dirty, damaged, or partially obscured. Higher correction levels increase the QR code's module density.

2Why SVG instead of PNG?

SVG is a vector format, so the QR code looks crisp at any size — from a tiny icon to a billboard. PNG is raster and would pixelate when scaled up. You can convert the SVG to PNG using the Image Convert tool if you need a raster format.

3How much data can a QR code hold?

Up to about 2,953 bytes for numeric data, 1,817 bytes for alphanumeric, or 429 bytes for binary. Larger payloads require more modules (the QR code gets denser). For URLs, keep them short — use a URL shortener if needed.
