Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add my logo to the QR code?
Yes. Use the customisation panel to upload a logo image. It appears in the centre of the QR code. Error correction is automatically increased to maintain scanability.
Do QR codes created here expire?
No. Our QR codes are static: the data is encoded directly in the code. They work as long as the linked content exists.
What is the best size for printing a QR code?
Minimum 2cm x 2cm (about 0.8 inches) for close-range scanning. For posters or signs viewed from a distance, increase the size proportionally. A rough rule: 1cm of QR code for every 10cm of scanning distance.
Which download format should I choose?
SVG for print (infinite scalability), PNG for digital use and social media, JPEG for smaller file sizes. SVG is the safest choice for most use cases.
