❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum amount of data a QR code can hold?

A standard QR code can hold up to 4,296 alphanumeric characters. For URLs, this is more than enough. Longer content creates denser, harder-to-scan QR codes.

What size should my QR code be for print?

For printed materials, use at least 300×300px. For large formats (posters, banners), use 1000px or larger. The QR code should be at least 2×2cm when printed.

Can I create a QR code for Wi-Fi?

Yes — enter your Wi-Fi network name (SSID), password, and security type (WPA/WEP). Anyone who scans it will be automatically connected.

Do QR codes expire?

QR codes themselves don't expire — they're just encoded data. If you link to a URL and that URL changes or goes offline, the QR code will no longer work.

Is this tool free?

Yes, 100% free with no account required.

Can I customise the QR code colours?

Basic colour customisation may be available. For advanced branding (logo in QR code, custom colours), dedicated QR code branding tools offer more options.
