What is StackQR?

StackQR is a free QR code generator that runs entirely in your browser. Describe what you need in plain English and it creates permanent codes for URLs, WiFi networks, email addresses, phone numbers, SMS messages, and plain text. The codes are static, which means they never expire, and there is no account or subscription behind them.

How It Works

Type what you need in everyday words. Say "wifi GuestNet password Welcome2026" and a WiFi code appears instantly (there's also a dedicated WiFi generator with a form). Paste the link to your restaurant's menu and you get a code ready for table tents. Type "call 555-0199" and one scan dials the number.

Six types are supported: website URLs, email addresses with pre-filled subjects and messages, phone numbers that dial when scanned, WiFi credentials that connect devices automatically, SMS messages, and plain text up to 1,000 characters.

Everything happens in your browser. Your WiFi passwords, contact details, and personal information never touch our servers. We can't see your data even if we wanted to. Generate what you need, download it, and you're done. New here? Follow our step-by-step tutorial.

Common Questions

Do the QR codes expire?

No. The data lives inside the pattern itself, so a printed code keeps working for as long as the paper does. Nothing on our end can break it. More on how that works.

Is it really free?

Yes. Ads keep the site running, so there is no premium tier and nothing held back. No watermarks, no download caps, no surprise charges later. The full answer.

Is my data private?

Yes. Codes are generated on your device and your input never reaches a server. We could not read your WiFi password if we tried. Details in the FAQ.

Can I use the codes for my business?

Yes. The codes you make are yours. Print them on menus, packaging, signs, or business cards with no license fee and no attribution. Commercial use details.

What is the difference between static and dynamic codes?

Static codes store the destination in the pattern and work forever. Dynamic codes route every scan through a paid service and stop working when the subscription ends. StackQR makes static codes only. The longer comparison.
