Frequently Asked Questions
What can I put in a QR code?
- Websites: https://yourdomain.com (most common use)

- Email: mailto:[email protected]
- Phone: tel:+123456789

What size should my QR code be?
For print materials, use at least 2cm x 2cm (0.8 x 0.8 inches) to ensure scannability. For digital use, 200-300px is usually sufficient. Larger sizes are better for environments where scanning distance is greater (like posters or billboards). The generator allows custom sizing for any use case.
Can I customize QR code colors?
Yes! You can choose custom foreground and background colors. However, ensure high contrast between the two colors for reliable scanning. Dark foreground with light background works best. Avoid light colors (like yellow) for the foreground as cameras may struggle to read them.
Do these QR codes expire?
No, the QR codes generated here are permanent and don't expire. However, if your QR code contains a URL, the destination website could change or go offline. For dynamic content (editable QR codes), you'd need a paid QR service that redirects through their servers. Our generator creates static QR codes that work forever as long as the content remains valid.
Are there any limits on QR code content?
QR codes can store up to about 3KB of data, which is roughly 4,000 alphanumeric characters. For URLs, this is plenty. If you're storing very long text or large amounts of data, consider using a URL shortener first to keep the QR code simple and scannable.
Where should I use QR codes?
- Business Cards: Link to portfolio, LinkedIn, or contact vCard
- Marketing Materials: Flyers, brochures, posters for instant website access
- Product Packaging: Instructions, reviews, or product registration
- Restaurants: Digital menus or ordering systems
- Events: Ticketing, schedules, or feedback forms
- Payments: Venmo, PayPal, or payment processor links
