Everything you can make with QRFactory, and how to make it yours.
Make a QR codeYour first QR, in a few moments.
Generate your QR
Select Generate QR Code above the design section. Your code appears in the preview. If you’re signed in, it is saved to your workspace automatically.
Download and share
Choose PNG for everyday use or SVG for layouts and printing. Try a scan with your phone before putting the QR out into the world.
Want a different look? Open Design your QR Code, make your changes, and use the smaller Generate button below the controls. Each successful generation counts toward your plan’s allowance; downloading an existing result does not.
One tool. Nine ways to share.
URL
Paste a website link. A scan opens it in a browser. Signed-in users can also make a dynamic link and change its destination later.
Create url QRText
Add a note, reference, instructions or any short text. The content is stored directly in the QR code.
Create text QRWi-Fi
Enter the network name, password and security type. Compatible phones can join without typing the password. Choose Open network if no password is needed.
Create wi-fi QRContact
Sign inEnter a first and last name, then optionally add a phone number, email, organization and website. A scan offers a contact card to save.
Create contact QRFile
ProUpload a document, image, audio or video file with Pro. Generate a shareable QR, replace the file later, or pause access from your workspace.
Create file QRSet the recipient and optionally a subject and message. A scan prepares an email in a compatible mail app; it does not send it automatically.
Create email QRSMS
Sign inAdd a phone number and optional message. A scan prepares a text message for the person scanning to send.
Create sms QRPhone
Sign inEnter a phone number including the country code. A scan offers to call it on a compatible phone.
Create phone QRLocation
Sign inEnter latitude and longitude, with an optional location label. A scan opens the coordinates in a compatible maps app.
Create location QRThe action offered after a scan depends on the camera or scanning app. Review links and destinations before sharing.
A small square. Your style.
Colors & quality
Choose a quick palette or pick your own code and background colors. Keep the code dark and the background light. High resolution gives you a larger PNG; SVG keeps the QR pattern sharp when resized.
Keep the clear margin around the QR. Print it large enough for its scanning distance and content, and test at the actual size.
Center logos Pro
Switch on Center logo to start with an icon matching your QR type. Choose another icon or upload a PNG, JPG or WebP logo under 2 MB and 4 megapixels.
We clean and resize your image, protect the QR’s margin and use high error correction. Each decorated code must pass a scan check before we return it. Complex designs may use a smaller logo to stay readable.
Bottom text Pro
Add a short phrase such as “Scan the menu” or “Connect to Wi-Fi”, up to 60 characters. Choose the size, regular or bold style, and alignment.
The caption uses your chosen colors and sits below the QR’s clear margin. Long text shrinks to fit; shorten it if it becomes hard to read. In SVG downloads, the QR pattern is vector while logos and captions are embedded images.
Thousands of QR codes. One sheet. Pro
- Choose a type and download a sample. CSV and Excel templates show the headers for each QR type. Batches support websites, text, Wi-Fi, contacts, email, SMS, phone and location. File QR codes aren’t included.
- Add your rows. Use Data or Text as the website/text column header, in any capitalization. A single column can also be used; auto-detect treats valid links as websites and other values as text. For a Phone template, its Phone column creates phone codes. Multi-column templates keep additional information alongside the QR.
- Prepare your spreadsheet. Save a UTF-8 CSV or XLSX file. We read the first worksheet, with a header row and up to 32 columns. Paste formulas as values, and format phone numbers as text so the country code and leading zeros stay intact.
- Upload, preview and design. Check the first rows, select your colors, and optionally add a logo or caption. Auto icons match each row’s QR type. Submit the batch and follow its progress. You can leave the page while it runs.
- Download your results. The ZIP includes an Excel sheet with a QR image beside each successful row, a CSV with image filenames, and the individual PNGs. Rows that need fixing remain in both sheets with an error message. Correct those rows and submit them again.
The default limit is 5,000 rows and 10 MB per upload, with two active jobs at a time. There is no daily Pro generation allowance. The batch page shows the current limits. Downloads are normally kept for seven days, with 1 GB of private batch storage per account; delete old files when you need room.
Batch QR codes are static: their data is stored directly in the image. They are not added individually to your QR library, and they do not offer destination editing or scan analytics. Downloaded codes continue to work after the batch download expires.
Open batch generatorSave it. Find it. Share it again.
Your QR library
Signed-in individual generations are saved automatically. Give codes a name, organize them into projects, mark favorites, search your library, duplicate a code or download it again. A duplicate counts as a new generation.
Dynamic links & files
For websites, switch on Make this a dynamic QR under Save & manage before generating. The QR points through QRFactory, so you can edit its destination later. File QR codes use a managed link too. Dynamic links can be paused and show scan counts in your workspace.
Anyone with a file’s share link can access it while sharing is enabled. Share only files you intend recipients to see. Replacing a file keeps its QR link; deleting or pausing a managed link stops access through it.
Your account & billing
Manage your account in the workspace. Web Pro subscriptions offer weekly, monthly and yearly billing; the Plans page shows current prices and availability. Existing subscribers can open the billing portal there to manage their subscription.
If Pro ends, you return to the free generation allowance. Your previously downloaded static QR codes keep their encoded data. Hosted files and dynamic links depend on the service and the sharing settings remaining active.
