Static vs "dynamic" QR codes — read before printing

Many QR services generate codes that point at their redirect server, not your destination — that's a "dynamic" code. It lets them count scans, and lets them break your code when the free tier ends or the company folds. The codes generated here encode your content directly: nothing between the scan and the destination, nothing to expire. The trade-off is honest — you can't change the destination after printing — so double-check the URL first.

Common questions

How do I make a QR code for a link?

Paste the full URL (including https://) into the box — the code generates as you type. Download the PNG and use it anywhere: print, slides, signage, menus. Test it with your phone camera before printing a thousand flyers.

Do these QR codes expire?

Never. This generates static QR codes — the data is encoded directly in the pattern, with no middleman service that can expire, start charging, or redirect your traffic. As long as the destination URL works, the code works, forever.

How do I make a QR code for Wi-Fi?

Use the format WIFI:T:WPA;S:NetworkName;P:password;; in the text box — replace NetworkName and password with yours. Phones that scan it join the network automatically. Watch the semicolons.

How big should a printed QR code be?

Rule of thumb: scanning distance ÷ 10. A code scanned from 10 inches (a table tent) needs to be at least 1 inch; a poster scanned from 10 feet needs about a foot. The downloaded PNG scales cleanly to any print size.
