Free Custom QR Code Generator

Make QR codes that look as good as they work.

Most free QR code generators give you something basic: a black-and-white square, a watermark, and a paywall if you want anything more. We built freecustomqrcode.com differently — a free tier that's actually useful, real customization without subscription pressure, and clear guides explaining how to get the most out of your codes.

What you can build

Our generator supports 17 different QR code types — from simple website links to vCards, WiFi credentials, calendar events, and payment links. Each code can be fully customized:

  • Choose any colors for foreground, background, and individual corner squares
  • Add your logo with a choice of background shapes
  • Pick from square, circle, or rounded code shapes
  • Add a frame, a caption, or both
  • Set sizes from 200 to 800 pixels
  • Download in clean PNG format with no watermarks — even on the free tier

Paid plans add usage analytics, dynamic QR codes (which let you change the destination after the code is printed), and higher monthly limits. See plans →
