Create a QR Code Online

Use this free QR Code Maker to create a downloadable QR code from a website link or short text. Generate the code, test it with a phone camera and use it on a poster, worksheet, presentation, business card or document.

A QR code lets people open a link or view information quickly by scanning it with a phone.

How to create a QR code

  1. Enter the website link or text you want the QR code to contain.
  2. Generate the QR code.
  3. Download the image file.
  4. Test the QR code using a phone camera before sharing or printing it.

For example, a teacher can create a QR code that opens a learning resource, class form or online assignment.

Good ways to use QR codes

QR codes can be useful for:

  • linking to a website, article or video;
  • sharing online worksheets or classroom resources;
  • adding a link to a poster or presentation;
  • sending visitors to a contact form or event page;
  • sharing a menu, document or digital file.

Use a short, correct link. If the destination website changes later, the QR code will still point to the original link.

Tips before printing a QR code

  • Test it with more than one phone if possible.
  • Leave enough white space around the code.
  • Do not make the code too small.
  • Use a clear, high-contrast image.
  • Check that the linked page works on mobile.
