QR code generator
Make a scannable code for a website, Wi‑Fi network, phone number, or SMS. Download PNG or SVG.
Create a QR code in four steps
- Choose a type in the generator: URL, text, email, phone, SMS, or Wi‑Fi.
- Fill in the fields. For a website, paste the full https:// link. For Wi‑Fi, add the network name, password, and encryption.
- Look at the preview. Dark modules on a light background scan most reliably. If contrast looks weak, switch the colors before you print.
- Download PNG for slides, chat, and email, or SVG for print and vinyl. The file saves to your device.
No signup, no watermark, no upload
Encoding runs in your browser. A Wi‑Fi password or a private link never leaves this page. You can preview and download without an account, and the file matches the preview: nothing extra is stamped on it.
PNG uses the pixel size you pick, from 256 to 2048. SVG stays sharp at any print size because it is a vector, not a stretched bitmap.
URL, Wi‑Fi, phone, SMS, and text
A URL QR opens a website. Use it for a landing page, a booking link, or a digital restaurant menu. The code only stores the address, so if that page is a PDF or a slow desktop layout, that is what people get.
A Wi‑Fi QR stores the network name, password, and encryption. Current iPhone and Android cameras can offer to join without typing the password. A phone QR starts a call. SMS opens a message with a number and optional body. Email opens a compose window.
Plain text is for a short note or an address that should not launch an app. Keep it short. Dense codes are harder to scan from a sticker or a table tent.
PNG vs SVG
PNG is a raster image. Use it in emails, social posts, slides, and anything that expects a regular picture. Pick 1024px or 2048px if you might print later from that same file.
SVG is a vector. Print shops, vinyl cutters, and table-tent templates stay sharp when you scale it. For a window, a menu board, or packaging, download SVG.
Restaurant menus
A table QR only helps if it opens a live menu, not a PDF. Guests expect photos, current prices, and a page that loads on a phone in a few seconds. Publish the menu first, paste that URL here, then print the code once.
The QR code menu guide covers placement, lighting, and the usual failures at the table. If you do not have a page yet, start from the digital restaurant menu flow in Bunstation.
On iPhone and Android
This page works in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. Fill in the fields, then download PNG or SVG. On iPhone the file lands in Files; on Android it goes to Downloads.
You do not need an app to create the code. The other person's camera is enough to scan it.

Frequently asked questions
Everything to know about creating a free QR code for a URL, Wi‑Fi network, or restaurant menu.
Yes. You can create, preview, and download QR codes without an account. The generator runs in your browser.
No. Encoding happens on your device. Bunstation never sees the content of the QR code.
Use SVG for print, vinyl, and anything that needs to stay sharp at any size. Use PNG for slides, social posts, and emails.
Yes. Generate a live digital menu in Bunstation, copy that URL into this tool, then print the QR for tables. A menu page is more useful than a QR that opens a PDF.
Keep a strong contrast between the two colors, leave the quiet zone around the code, and print it large enough for a phone camera. Dark codes on a light background scan most reliably.
Yes. The camera app on current iPhone and Android phones can read a Wi‑Fi QR and offer to join the network.
Select URL, paste the full link including https://, check the preview, then download PNG or SVG. Anyone who scans it opens that page in their browser.
Yes. This page works in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. Fill in the fields and download the file. On iPhone it lands in Files; on Android it goes to Downloads.
No. The PNG and SVG you download match the preview. Nothing extra is added to the file.
