QR Code Generator
Create QR codes for links, text, Wi-Fi and email. Adjust size, colours and error correction, then download PNG or SVG.
Higher levels survive more damage but hold less data.
About QR Code Generator
Turn a URL, block of text, Wi-Fi network or email address into a scannable QR code. Codes are generated in your browser and never expire or redirect through a tracking service, so what you encode is exactly what a scanner reads — permanently.
How to use it
- Choose what the code should contain.
- Fill in the details.
- Adjust size, colours and error correction level.
- Download as PNG for print or SVG for scaling.
Frequently asked questions
Do these QR codes expire?
Never. The data is encoded directly into the pattern. Unlike shortened or 'dynamic' QR codes, there is no server in the middle that could go away.
What error correction level should I use?
Level M is the sensible default. Use Q or H if the code will be printed small, placed on a curved surface, or partly covered by a logo — H tolerates about 30 percent damage.
Why will my code not scan?
Almost always contrast or size. Keep the foreground dark on a light background — never inverted — and leave the quiet zone around the edge clear.

SIP Calculator guide
A Systematic Investment Plan is a standing instruction to put a fixed amount into a mutual fund on the same date each month. That is the whole idea. It is not a product you buy, not an asset class, and not a scheme with a guaranteed rate — it is a schedule. The returns come from whatever the underlying fund holds.

BMI Calculator guide
Body Mass Index is weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. That is the whole calculation. It was devised in the 1830s by the Belgian statistician Adolphe Quetelet, who was explicitly describing populations rather than assessing individuals — a distinction that matters enormously and gets lost constantly.

Percentage Calculator guide
Almost every percentage problem is one of four shapes. Knowing which one you are looking at is most of the work, because each has a different formula and mixing them up is where the wrong answers come from.
