What is QR Code Rabbit?
QR Code Rabbit is a free QR code generator and best-in-class QR code maker available online. "QR code" stands for Quick Response Code — a 2D barcode developed by Denso Wave in 1994 that smartphones can scan in under a second. QR Code Rabbit lets you create QR codes for URLs, PDFs, WhatsApp, social media, UPI payments, Wi-Fi, vCards, and more. You can add your brand logo, customize colors and patterns, and download in PNG or SVG format — all for free, with no account required for static QR codes.
Is QR Code Rabbit free to use?
Yes. All static QR codes on QR Code Rabbit — including URL, plain text, email, SMS, phone, Wi-Fi, vCard, and crypto — are completely free to create with no expiry and no scan limits. Once generated, they are yours to keep forever. Dynamic QR codes with scan analytics and editable URLs are available on our free and paid plans. No credit card is ever required for the free tier.
Can I use QR Code Rabbit for commercial purposes?
Yes. Every QR code you generate with QR Code Rabbit — including custom-designed codes with your company logo — can be used freely for commercial purposes, including product packaging, marketing campaigns, business cards, menus, and event materials. There are no royalties or licensing fees.
Is there any scan limit for the QR codes?
No. Static QR codes generated on QR Code Rabbit have zero scan limits and never expire. You can print them on packaging, billboards, or business cards and they will work indefinitely, with no caps on the number of scans.
Can I customize a QR code with my company logo or brand colors?
Absolutely. QR Code Rabbit includes a full design editor: upload any image as a logo to embed in the center of your QR code, choose custom foreground and background colors, pick from multiple dot patterns and eye shapes, and add a branded call-to-action frame. Custom-designed QR codes get up to 70% more scans than plain black-and-white codes — all customization is free.
What types of content can a QR code store?
QR codes generated with QR Code Rabbit can encode: website URLs, plain text messages, email addresses (with subject and body), phone numbers, SMS messages, Wi-Fi network credentials, vCard contact details, UPI payment links, WhatsApp chat links, Instagram/Facebook/YouTube/Twitter profiles, Google Form links, PDF file links, and Bitcoin/Ethereum wallet addresses. Each QR code type has a dedicated generator page optimized for that content.
How do I scan a QR code?
On iPhone (iOS 11+) and most Android devices, open the native Camera app, point it at the QR code, and hold steady. A notification or banner will appear automatically — tap it to open the link. No separate QR code scanner app is needed. If your camera does not respond, check Settings → Camera and ensure 'Scan QR Codes' is enabled. You can also use QR Code Rabbit's free online QR code scanner at /qr-code-scanner to scan a QR code by uploading an image from any device.
Can I create multiple QR codes for the same content?
Yes. You can generate as many QR codes as you like for the same URL or content — each with a different design, logo, or color scheme. This is useful for A/B testing print campaigns: create two designs, give each a unique dynamic QR code with the same destination, and compare scan analytics to see which performs better.
What is the minimum print size for a QR code?
For reliable scanning, print your QR code at a minimum of 2 × 2 cm (0.8 × 0.8 inches) when used at close range (e.g., business cards). For outdoor signage or billboards, increase the size proportionally — a good rule of thumb is 1 cm per 10 cm of scanning distance. Always use high-contrast colors (dark pattern on a light background) and test before large print runs.
What file formats can I download my QR code in?
QR Code Rabbit lets you download QR codes as high-resolution PNG — no account required. SVG vector format, which scales to any size without quality loss and is ideal for large-format printing, is available with a free account. Both formats are available for static and dynamic QR codes. No EPS or JPG limitations apply.
What should I check before printing my QR code?
Before printing, always: (1) Test the QR code with multiple devices and camera apps. (2) Ensure minimum size is at least 2 × 2 cm. (3) Confirm high color contrast — avoid light-on-light or dark-on-dark designs. (4) Leave a quiet zone (white border) of at least 4 modules around the QR code. (5) For dynamic QR codes, verify the destination URL is live and correct. (6) Check that the error correction level is set to H (30%) if you have a large logo overlay.
Does QR Code Rabbit work for bulk QR code generation?
Yes. QR Code Rabbit supports bulk QR code generation via CSV upload — create hundreds of unique QR codes in a single batch. This is perfect for product labels, event tickets, employee badges, loyalty cards, or any use case requiring unique codes at scale. Each code in the batch can point to a different URL, contact, or text value.
Do QR codes created with QR Code Rabbit expire?
Static QR codes created with QR Code Rabbit never expire and have no scan limits. The encoded data is permanently baked into the QR code pattern, so they will work as long as scanners exist. Dynamic QR codes remain active as long as your account is active. Unlike some competitors that expire free QR codes after 30–90 days, QR Code Rabbit static codes are yours to keep forever.
Does QR Code Rabbit store my data?
QR Code Rabbit does not permanently store the content you encode in static QR codes. QR code image files are temporarily cached on our server for up to 24 hours to enable fast downloads, then deleted. For dynamic QR codes, the redirect URL and scan analytics are stored securely to provide the tracking functionality. The site uses 256-bit SSL encryption and is GDPR-compliant. We never sell or share your data with third parties.
Does QR Code Rabbit work on all browsers and devices?
Yes. QR Code Rabbit is a web-based application that works on any modern browser — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and mobile browsers on iOS and Android. No app download or plugin is required. The tool is fully responsive and works on desktops, tablets, and smartphones.
How long are QR codes valid? Do they expire?
Static QR codes generated with QR Code Rabbit are valid forever with no expiry date. The destination is encoded directly in the QR code pattern, so it works even if you close your account. Dynamic QR codes redirect via a short URL that remains active while your account is active. Both static and dynamic codes have no scan limits — scan them as many times as you need.
What is the difference between static and dynamic QR code generators?
A static QR code generator encodes the destination content (URL, text, contact, etc.) directly into the QR code pattern. The code is fixed — you cannot change the destination after printing, but it works offline and never expires. A dynamic QR code generator creates a code that encodes a short redirect URL. The redirect destination can be updated at any time from your dashboard without reprinting. Dynamic codes also provide real-time scan analytics: total scans, unique scans, scan locations (city/country), device type (iOS/Android/Desktop), and time trends.
Is QR Code Rabbit safe to use for business?
Yes. QR Code Rabbit is trusted by businesses across 20+ industries including restaurants, retail, healthcare, real estate, events, and education. The platform uses 256-bit SSL encryption, is GDPR-compliant, and does not add watermarks to free QR codes. Your QR codes carry no third-party branding and can be used freely for commercial purposes including product packaging, marketing, and client-facing materials.
