QR codes are everywhere, on shop counters, restaurant menus, business cards and posters. You can create one for free in seconds and download it ready to print.

What you can put in a QR code

  • Website link – your shop page, Google Maps location or social profile.
  • WiFi details – guests scan to connect without typing the password.
  • Contact card – name, phone and email saved in one scan.
  • Plain text or a phone number.

How to create one

  1. Open the QR Code Generator.
  2. Choose the type and enter your link or details.
  3. Adjust the size and colours if you like.
  4. Download the PNG and test it with your phone camera.

Tips for reliable scanning

  • Keep contrast high – a dark code on a light background works best.
  • Leave a quiet zone – blank margin around the code.
  • Print it big enough – roughly 2–3 cm wide at minimum for close scanning; larger for posters.
  • Use short links – less data means a simpler, easier-to-scan pattern.
  • Always test before printing in bulk.

Business ideas

Put a QR on your counter linking to your WhatsApp catalogue, add one to invoices for reviews, or print one on a menu linking to your price list.
