Question 1

Is this QR code generator really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Generate and download as many QR codes as you want, no account required. The QR codes are yours — no watermarks, no limits.

Question 2

What's the difference between a static and dynamic QR code?

Accepted Answer

A static QR code points directly to a URL. Once printed, it can't be changed. A dynamic QR code goes through a redirect, so you can update the destination anytime without reprinting. This tool creates static codes. If you need dynamic codes with analytics, create a free account.

Question 3

What format should I download — PNG or SVG?

Accepted Answer

PNG works everywhere — social media, documents, print. SVG is vector-based, so it scales to any size without losing quality. For print materials like posters or packaging, go with SVG.

Question 4

Can I use these QR codes commercially?

Accepted Answer

Yes. QR codes generated here are yours to use however you want — business cards, menus, flyers, packaging, anything.

Question 5

How small can I print a QR code?

Accepted Answer

The minimum recommended size is 2 x 2 cm (about 0.8 x 0.8 inches). Smaller than that, and scanners may struggle — especially with styled dots. Test with your phone before committing to print.

Question 6

Will these QR codes expire?

Accepted Answer

Static QR codes don't have an expiration date, but they point to a fixed URL. If that URL changes or the page goes offline, the QR code stops working — and you can't fix it without printing a new one. Dynamic QR codes (available with a free QrBro account) solve this: you can update the destination anytime without reprinting.
