Free Wi-Fi QR Code Generator
Guests scan it with their phone camera and join your network. No more spelling out passwords.
Your password never leaves your device
The code is made right here in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or saved.
Type it exactly as it appears on your phone, including capitals and spaces.
Not sure? Leave this selected. Almost every home and business router uses it.
Shown so you can check it. It’s case-sensitive and must match your router exactly.
Your logo stays in your browser. It's never uploaded.
How a Wi-Fi QR code works
A Wi-Fi QR code holds three things: your network name, its security type and the password. They’re stored in a standard format that phone cameras recognise. When someone scans it, their phone offers to join the network, and one tap connects them.
Everything lives inside the code itself. There’s no link, no website and no server involved, so it works offline and keeps working for as long as your password stays the same.
How to make one
- 1
Enter your network name
Use the exact name your phone shows in its Wi-Fi list. It's case-sensitive, so "Cafe Guest" and "cafe guest" are different networks.
- 2
Pick the security type
Almost every home and business network uses WPA, WPA2 or WPA3, which share one setting. Choose WEP only for very old routers, and "No password" for open networks.
- 3
Add the password
Type it carefully. The code stores exactly what you enter, so a typo means guests can't connect. Check it carefully, including capitals.
- 4
Style it and download
Add your logo, brand colours and a "Scan to join Wi-Fi" frame. Download a PNG for screens and documents, or an SVG for sharp printing at any size.
Where to put it
Holiday lets and guest rooms
In the welcome book, on the fridge or by the bed. Guests connect without messaging you.
Cafés and restaurants
On table cards, menus or by the till. Staff stop answering "what's the Wi-Fi?".
Offices and reception
On the reception desk or meeting room walls, pointing at your guest network.
Events and workshops
On slides, badges or signs, so a room full of people can connect at once.
Printing tips
- Print it at least 2 cm (about 1 inch) across. As a rough guide, make it a tenth of the distance people will scan from, so 10 cm wide for a sign 1 metre away.
- Keep strong contrast: a dark code on a light background scans most reliably.
- Use the SVG download for print. It stays sharp at any size.
- Test it with an iPhone and an Android phone before printing a batch.
Is it safe to share?
Anyone who can scan the code can join your network, just like anyone who can read a password written on a card. For visitors, point the code at a guest network rather than the one your own devices use. Most routers can set one up in a few minutes, and it keeps guests away from your computers and printers.
Why Wi-Fi codes can’t be edited later
Our dynamic QR codes point at a short link that you can redirect whenever you like. Phones only join Wi-Fi from a code that holds the details directly, though, so a Wi-Fi code can’t go through a link. If your password changes, make a fresh code. It takes a few seconds.
Frequently asked questions
Does scanning the code connect automatically?⌄
Almost. The phone reads the network name and password, then shows a prompt such as "Join network". One tap and it's connected. Nobody has to type the password.
Which phones can scan a Wi-Fi QR code?⌄
iPhones running iOS 11 or later can scan it with the built-in Camera app. Most Android phones running Android 10 or later can scan it with the camera or from the QR icon in Wi-Fi settings. On older Android phones, Google Lens works.
What happens if I change my Wi-Fi password?⌄
The old code stops working, because the password is stored inside the code itself. Make a new code with the new password and replace the printed one.
My network name or password has symbols in it. Will that work?⌄
Yes. Characters like semicolons, colons, commas, quotes and backslashes have special meaning in Wi-Fi codes, and the generator escapes them for you. Spaces, accents and emoji work too.
Does it work with hidden networks?⌄
Yes. Tick "Hidden network" so phones know to look for a network that doesn't broadcast its name.
Can I use it for a work network that needs a username?⌄
Not reliably. Networks using WPA2-Enterprise or 802.1X need a username and certificate settings that phones don't consistently accept from a QR code. It works for networks with a single shared password.
Do you store my Wi-Fi password?⌄
No. The code is generated entirely in your browser. Your network name and password are never sent to our servers, and nothing is saved.
