Lossless Vector Quality (SVG)
For commercial printing on billboards, packaging, flyers, or business cards, download the SVG vector file so your barcode stays razor-sharp at any scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do QR codes expire?
No, static QR codes generated with the ArtifyPix QR Code Generator never expire. Because the destination URL, plain text, or Wi-Fi configuration is encoded directly into the 2D barcode matrix rather than routed through a paid third-party redirect server, your QR code will remain scannable forever as long as your destination link stays live.
Does adding a logo break scanning?
No, embedding a center logo does not break scanning when Reed-Solomon Error Correction Level H is enabled. Our generator automatically applies Level H error correction, which allows up to 30% of the barcode modules to be covered by a brand icon while remaining 100% readable by iOS and Android smartphone cameras.
What is the difference between PNG and SVG?
PNG is a pixel-based raster image format best suited for websites, emails, and social media graphics. SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a mathematical path-based vector format that scales infinitely to any dimension without losing sharpness, making SVG the industry standard for commercial printing in Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, or Canva.
Is it free and are scans limited?
Yes, this QR code generator is 100% free for both personal and commercial use, and there are zero scan limits. Unlike subscription-based dynamic QR platforms that deactivate your code after a trial quota, our static QR codes support unlimited scans worldwide without watermarks or recurring fees.
Is my data stored?
No, your URLs, text messages, Wi-Fi passwords, and uploaded brand logos are never transmitted to or stored on any server. Every QR code is calculated and rendered locally inside your web browser using client-side JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas, guaranteeing complete data privacy and security.
What size should I print?
For close-range scanning on business cards, product packaging, or restaurant menus, print your QR code at a minimum size of 2 cm x 2 cm (0.8 in x 0.8 in) with a 4-module quiet zone margin. For posters, banners, and signage, follow the 10:1 distance-to-size ratio: divide the viewing distance by 10 to determine minimum width.
