Create QR Codes That Never Expire
Make a QR code for a link, any text, a Wi-Fi network, a contact card, an email, a text message or a phone number, with your own colours, size and error correction, and your logo in the middle if you want one. The codes are static, so they work forever with no account, subscription or scan tracking, and they're generated in your browser.
Your image is processed by your own browser and never uploaded. Many online editors send your photo to their servers and delete it later — this one never receives it at all.

QR Code Generator: frequently asked questions
Will my QR code expire?
No. ImageSpark creates static QR codes, which store your link or text directly in the pattern itself. There's no redirect service in the middle, so nothing can be switched off later and the code keeps working for as long as the destination exists. You don't need an account or subscription.
What's the difference between static and dynamic QR codes?
A static code contains the destination itself, so it's permanent and private, but you can't change the link after printing. A dynamic code points to a short link on a provider's server, which lets them change it and track scans, but it usually stops working if you stop paying. ImageSpark makes static codes.
Can I put my logo in the middle of a QR code?
Yes. Tick Add a logo in the middle and choose an image; it sits on a small plate in your background colour. The code switches to High error correction, which can rebuild about 30% of its data, and the logo is capped at a quarter of the code's width so phones can still read it. Test the finished code before printing.
Should I download PNG or SVG?
Choose SVG for print, such as flyers, banners and packaging, because it's a vector file that stays sharp at any size. Choose PNG for websites, documents and slides where you just need a ready-made image. Both formats are generated instantly from the same code, so you can grab both.
Can I make a QR code for Wi-Fi?
Yes. Choose Wi-Fi, enter the network name and password, and pick the security type: WPA/WPA2/WPA3, WEP or no password. When scanned, most phone cameras offer to join the network. Test the printed code with a couple of phones before sharing it widely.
Can a QR code start an email, a text message or a call?
Yes. Choose Email to fill in an address, subject and message, SMS to fill in a phone number and text, or Phone to offer a call. Scanning opens the right app with the details ready, but nothing is sent or dialled until the person confirms. Include the country code for numbers that may be scanned abroad.
Do custom colors affect scanning?
They can. Scanners need strong contrast between the pattern and the background, so keep the foreground dark and the background light. Light codes on dark backgrounds and pale color pairs may fail on some phones. Always test your QR code with more than one device before printing a large batch.
Is my link or text uploaded?
No. The QR code is generated by your browser on your own device, so the URL or text you enter, whether it's a private link or Wi-Fi details, is never sent to ImageSpark. We also can't see or count scans, because static codes don't pass through any server of ours.
Can I make a QR code with my contact details?
Yes. Choose Contact and fill in the details you want to share, such as your name, phone number and email; scanning the code offers to save you as a contact. Keep it short, because more details make a denser code that's harder to scan when printed small.
