Why other "free" QR codes stop working

You've seen it before: you scan a QR code on a flyer or business card, and it leads to an error page. The code expired.

Here's what happened: the generator created a dynamic QR code — a short URL that redirects through their servers. When your free trial ends, or the service shuts down, or they decide to charge you, the redirect stops working. The code you printed on 500 flyers? Useless.

Our QR codes are static. The content is baked into the pattern itself — no redirect, no server, no expiry. Print it once and it works forever.

How it works

1
Enter your content
A URL, Wi-Fi credentials, contact info, or plain text. See the QR code update live as you type.
2
Customize (optional)
Change colors, add your logo, choose a module style. The tool warns you if choices might affect scannability.
3
Download and use
Get a PNG (up to 4096px) or SVG. No watermark, no scan limit. Print it, share it, put it on a billboard.

Common questions

Does the QR code expire?
No. The QR code works forever. Print it once and use it for years. There's no account, no subscription, no expiry date. If you need to change the content, you make a new code — but the old one never stops working.
Do you track who scans my QR code?
No. We create static QR codes — the content is baked into the pattern itself. There's no redirect through our servers, so we can't track scans. We don't even have a server that could track them.
Is it really free?
Yes, completely free. No watermarks, no scan limits, no premium tier. You can create as many QR codes as you want, download them as PNG or SVG, and use them anywhere — commercial or personal.
Why did my QR code from another site stop working?
Many "free" QR generators create dynamic codes that redirect through their servers. When your free trial ends, or the service shuts down, or they decide to charge you, the redirect stops working. Our codes are static — the content is in the pattern itself, so they work forever.
Can I use this for my business?
Absolutely. Use it for menus, posters, flyers, business cards, Wi-Fi cards for guests — anything. The codes are yours to print and distribute. Just remember: if the destination changes, you'll need a new code.
What's the best size for printing?
For a flyer or poster, use the "Large" (1024px) or "Poster" (4096px) preset. The code should be at least 2cm × 2cm when printed. Always test with your phone's camera before printing hundreds of copies.
Does it work with Turkish characters and emoji?
Yes. Full Unicode is supported — Turkish text, emoji, any language. The code will scan back to exactly what you typed.
