What is a QR Code?
A QR code (Quick Response code) is a two-dimensional barcode that can store URLs, text, WiFi credentials, contact information, and more. QR codes are scanned using smartphone cameras and are widely used in marketing, restaurants, business cards, and product packaging. Unlike traditional barcodes, QR codes can store thousands of characters and can be scanned from any angle.
When to Use QR Codes
QR codes bridge the gap between physical and digital experiences. Use them on business cards to share contact details, in restaurants to display digital menus, on product packaging to link to instructions or warranty registration, in marketing materials to drive traffic to landing pages, and in offices or homes to share WiFi passwords with guests.
Types of QR Codes
Static QR codes encode fixed data that cannot be changed after creation — they are free and work forever. Dynamic QR codes use a redirect URL that can be updated, but typically require a paid service. This tool generates static QR codes for maximum reliability and zero cost.
