Static QR Codes: Free Forever
This tool creates static QR codes — the content is encoded directly in the pattern itself. Unlike "dynamic" QR services that route scans through their servers (and can start charging or shut down), a static code has no middleman: it will scan correctly for as long as QR readers exist.
Print size guide
- Business cards: ≥ 2 × 2 cm
- Flyers/posters: ≥ 3 × 3 cm, scanning distance ≈ 10× the code width
- Storefront windows: 10 × 10 cm or larger
