QR code questions, answered

How do I create a QR code?
Choose what the code should do — open a website, share WiFi details, save a contact card, or send an email, text or phone number — enter your content, adjust the colours and logo if you want, then download it as a PNG or SVG.
Do I need an account to make a QR code?
No. You can create and preview a QR code without signing up. A free account is only needed to download the file, edit the destination later, or see scan statistics.
What size should a QR code be when printed?
A good rule of thumb is that the code should be at least a tenth of the distance it will be scanned from. For a code scanned at arm's length, roughly 2-3cm across is enough; for a poster read from three metres away, aim for around 30cm.
Should I download a PNG or an SVG?
Use SVG for anything printed — it stays sharp at any size because it is vector based. Use PNG for screens, email signatures and social media, where a fixed-size image is easier to work with.
Will my QR code still work if I change my website?
If it is a dynamic code, yes. Dynamic codes redirect through QRecode, so you can point the same printed code at a new URL at any time. A static code has the URL baked into the pattern and cannot be changed after printing.
Why has my QR code stopped scanning?
The usual causes are too little contrast between the code and its background, a logo covering too much of the pattern, or the printed code being too small for the scanning distance. Using High error correction gives the code the most tolerance.

FAQ

Common questions

Yes. You can create and preview QR codes without signing up. A free account is required to download or track scans. We offer paid plans for higher volumes and advanced features.

Never. Unlike some competitors who deactivate codes after a trial ends, your QR codes on QRecode works for as long as your account is active. We believe the QR codes you print should always work.

A dynamic QR code redirects through our server, which means you can change the destination URL any time without reprinting — and we track every scan. A static QR code encodes the URL directly and cannot be changed after creation.

Yes. Upload a PNG or JPG logo and it will be centred in the QR code automatically. We recommend using High error correction (H) when adding a logo to ensure the code still scans reliably.

For dynamic QR codes, we record the device type, browser, operating system, and scan time. IP addresses are hashed (one-way encrypted) before storage — we never store or sell raw IP data. This keeps you GDPR compliant by default.

Use SVG for large-format printing (posters, banners, billboards) — it scales to any size without quality loss. Use PNG for digital use and smaller prints. Both are included at every plan level.

Yes. All QR codes you create are yours to use however you like — for your business, for clients, or for resale. There are no royalties or restrictions.
