QR code generator with no signup

No account, no email, no verification step. Type a URL below and the download works immediately. Static QR codes are built entirely in your browser, so what you encode never reaches our servers, and there is nothing for us to ask you to sign up for.

The generator runs in your browser. Make a QR code.

Check it yourself, including on us

Every generator says it is free. The useful question is what happens between typing your URL and getting your file, and you can watch that directly in about thirty seconds.

  • Open your browser developer tools.

    F12 on Windows, or Option and Command and I on a Mac. Select the Network tab and leave it open.

  • Type a URL into the generator and watch.

    If the code is built in your browser, nothing appears in the network list while the code updates. If the site is generating server side, you will see a request go out carrying what you typed.

  • Click download and watch again.

    The file should come out of the page itself, not arrive from a server. A download that triggers a request is a download the site knows about.

Run that on this page and you will see the code render with no request carrying your URL. You will see one small request after a download completes, which counts that a download happened and nothing about what was in it. We would rather tell you it is there than have you find it and wonder what else we left out.

What the signup was actually for

An email gate on a static QR code is not a technical requirement. Generating a code needs no account, because the code is a function of the text you typed and nothing else. The account exists so the tool can email you later, or so a trial can end.

The second one is the expensive version. If a generator makes you sign up before downloading, the code you get is often a dynamic one that points at their redirect service rather than at your URL. That is fine until the trial ends, at which point the printed code stops working and only they can fix it. A static code cannot be switched off by anyone, including us.

Here an account is only needed for dynamic codes, which are trackable, editable short links and genuinely do run through our servers. That tier is free for 5 codes and 500 scans a month, and paid plans start at $3 a month. Static codes are free forever and always have been.

What noQRap commits to

  • Use it without an account

    Static QR codes need no email, no signup and no account of any kind.

  • Free PNG and SVG download

    Both formats, full resolution, no account. Vector export is the thing most generators put behind a signup.

  • No watermark, ever

    Nothing is stamped on your code on any plan, including the free one.

  • Static codes never expire

    A static code has the URL encoded directly in it. It cannot be switched off later, by us or anyone else.

  • Your URL never reaches our servers

    Static codes are generated entirely in your browser. We could not log what you encode if we wanted to.

  • Dynamic codes are the only paid part

    Trackable, editable codes run through our servers, so they need an account. Free covers 5 codes and 500 scans a month; paid starts at $3.

Static or dynamic for this?

Static, obviously: this is the page for people who want a file and no relationship, and a static code is the only kind that asks nothing of you afterwards.

A static QR code has the URL encoded directly in the pattern. It works forever and offline, but the destination can never be changed. A dynamic QR code is a short link that redirects, so you can edit the destination and count scans after the code is printed. Static codes are free here with no account. Dynamic codes need a free account (5 codes and 500 scans a month), and paid plans start at $3/month.
