Website URL QR Code

Opens a website, landing page, online menu, registration form, or booking page when scanned.

Encodes instructions, messages, notes, or raw alphanumeric text directly inside the QR code symbol.

WiFi QR Code

Allows compatible smartphones and tablets to join a WiFi network without typing the network password manually.

UPI Payment QR Code

Encodes payee UPI ID, name, optional amount, and transaction note so users can scan and pay with compatible UPI apps.

vCard Contact QR Code

Encodes full name, phone number, email, company, and profile photo into a standard vCard contact file format.

Create a Custom QR Code With Your Logo

A QR code does not have to look like a generic black-and-white grid. PixDok provides design options so you can build QR codes that align with your brand identity.

Design Customization Options

  • Custom foreground and background color pickers
  • Solid or transparent background toggles
  • Linear and radial color gradients
  • Custom data dot shapes (Square, Rounded, Extra Rnd, Dots, Classy)
  • Corner eye frame and eye ball styling
  • Quiet zone margin scaling (0px to 40px)

How to Add a Logo to a QR Code

  1. Select your content type and enter information.
  2. Navigate to Step 2 (Customize QR Code).
  3. Open the Center Logo Overlay section.
  4. Upload a PNG, JPG, or SVG logo file up to 2MB.
  5. Use the Logo Size Scaling slider (10% to 50%) to adjust size.
  6. Test scan the code with a smartphone camera to ensure scannability.

Scan Tip: Placing a logo over the center obscures some QR data modules. We recommend selecting H (High ~30% recovery) error correction level whenever a center logo is used.

What Is a Static QR Code?

A static QR code encodes information directly into the QR code symbol itself. If the QR code contains a website URL, changing the destination later generally requires creating a new QR code unless a separate redirect service is used. A static QR code does not have an built-in expiration date in the code format, but whether the content remains accessible depends on whether the destination web page or service remains active.

Static vs Dynamic QR Codes Comparison

Feature Static QR Code Dynamic QR Code
Data Encoding Encoded directly inside the QR symbol Uses a short redirect link destination
Destination Editing Requires generating a new QR code Destination URL can be updated online
Scan Analytics Not tracked directly inside code Supports scan count and device analytics
Best For Fixed URLs, WiFi credentials, plain text Marketing campaigns, changing promotions

* Note: PixDok generates static QR codes locally, and offers dynamic contact cards for complex vCards and URL short links.

Is My QR Code Data Private?

PixDok renders the QR code image directly in your browser using client-side canvas rendering. Short links or dynamic contact cards may securely connect to PixDok services to provide short URL redirection or contact page formatting.

When generating static QR codes for plain text or local URLs, calculations happen right inside your device's browser memory. Always verify sensitive information such as UPI handles or WiFi passwords before distributing printed materials.

How to Test and Print Your QR Code

How to Test Before Sharing

  1. Open your phone's built-in camera or QR scanner.
  2. Point the lens at the live preview box.
  3. Confirm that the detected URL or content is accurate.
  4. Test scanning from a typical viewing distance.
  5. If printing, print a physical test sheet first.
  6. If it fails to scan, increase color contrast or reduce logo scale.

Printing Recommendations

  • Format: Use SVG vector format for crisp print scaling.
  • Contrast: Keep dark foreground modules on a light background.
  • Quiet Zone: Maintain at least 10px margin around the border.
  • Sizing: Ensure the printed QR is at least 2 × 2 cm for close-up scanning on business cards.
  • Media: Avoid high-gloss reflective surfaces that cause glare under lights.

How QR Codes Work

A QR code (Quick Response code) is a two-dimensional matrix barcode composed of black and white square modules. Optical scanners read the corner markers to establish positioning and alignment, parsing the encoded binary data. Built-in Reed-Solomon Error Correction allows scanners to reconstruct data even if parts of the QR code symbol are damaged, dirty, or covered by a logo overlay.

Why is my QR code not scanning?
Common causes include low color contrast, an oversized logo covering data modules, missing quiet zone margin, image blur, or incorrect input data.

The quiet zone is the blank margin surrounding the QR code symbol that helps optical scanners isolate the QR code from surrounding text or graphics.
