Wi-Fi QR Code Generator

Skip reading out the password — one scan joins guests to your event Wi-Fi instantly, styled to match your signage.

Generated entirely in your browser — nothing you enter is ever uploaded.

Stop reading out your Wi-Fi password

Printed Wi-Fi passwords next to a router, or read aloud a dozen times at a wedding reception, are how most people share network access — and both are slower and less reliable than a single scan. Generate a Wi-Fi QR code here and any phone's camera app joins the network directly: no typing a long password on a phone keyboard, no misheard characters, no app to install. This works for any Wi-Fi-sharing moment at an event — reception guest Wi-Fi so nobody's burning cellular data on photos, a housewarming's home network for close friends, a co-working or conference venue's day pass. Print it on a table tent, a welcome sign, or the back of a menu card, and match the Design tab's colors to whatever it's sitting on. The code encodes your network name, password and security type directly — nothing about your network is sent anywhere or stored on a server; it only exists in the code itself, exactly like a paper password would, just faster to use.

How to create a QR code

  1. Choose what it should do. Pick a content type above — a website link, Wi-Fi, UPI payment, WhatsApp, a contact card, and more.
  2. Enter the details. Fill in the Content tab — the preview updates as you type, so what you see is exactly what will scan.
  3. Style it. Switch to the Design tab. Start from one of the 8 presets, or set your own colors, dot shape, corner style, gradient and logo.
  4. Fine-tune it, if you want. The Advanced tab controls error-correction level, output size and the quiet zone — the blank margin scanners need around the code.
  5. Download it. PNG at 1x/2x/4x, SVG for print, JPG, or PDF — or copy the image straight to your clipboard.

Where a QR code fits into your event

Most of what goes wrong with event QR codes is using one where a plain link would already do. They earn their place wherever someone is standing in front of something physical: a digital invitation with a QR back-link to the same invite online, an RSVP form printed on a save-the-date, walking directions to the venue on a welcome board, a live-stream link at the entrance for guests who couldn't travel, a shared photo-upload album so every phone's candid shots land in one place, a gift registry on a return-gift card, a UPI shagun code at the reception desk so cash gifts don't need loose change, or the reception Wi-Fi password on every table so nobody's asking the DJ for it. If you're building the invitation itself, Eventic's invitation templates and built-in RSVP tracking already cover the first two without a separate code — this tool is for everything printed, standing, or handed out on the day.

Printing a QR code without it failing to scan

A code that scans perfectly on a laptop screen can still fail once it's printed, and it's almost always one of five things. Size — print it at least 2x2cm, larger if it will be scanned from more than arm's length; a table centerpiece needs a bigger code than a business card. Quiet zone — leave the blank margin around the code alone; cropping it tight to save space is the single most common reason a code stops scanning. Contrast — dark modules on a light background scan far more reliably than the reverse, because many phone cameras expose for the bright area and lose the code's fine detail on a dark card; if you want a dark invitation, put the QR code on a light panel rather than inverting its own colors. Logos — one covering more than about a quarter of the code needs "H" (high) error correction in the Advanced tab, or the area it covers may not be recoverable. And before printing 300 invitation cards, print one and test it on both an iPhone Camera app and an Android phone with Google Lens or its default camera — the two platforms don't always behave identically, and a five-minute test now is cheaper than a reprint.

Static vs dynamic QR codes — and which one this is

There are two kinds of QR code. A dynamic QR code points to a short redirect link that a service can repoint later, so the destination can change after printing — useful for scan tracking, but it depends on that service staying online, and most start charging after a trial. A static QR code, which is what this tool makes, encodes your actual content directly into the code itself — the link, the Wi-Fi details, the vCard — with nothing in between. It never expires and never depends on a third-party service staying in business. The trade-off is that you can't repoint it after printing, so double-check the details before 300 cards go to print.

Pair it with a digital invitation

A styled QR code is only half the job — most people scan it into a phone that's already looking at your invitation. Build the invite itself on Eventic: pick a template, add RSVP tracking, then bring a QR code back to it for the printed side — the save-the-date, the welcome sign, the return-gift card.

Frequently asked questions

Will guests be able to see my Wi-Fi password as plain text?

Only if they look — most phone camera apps show a "Join Network" prompt without ever displaying the password itself, though a small number of scanner apps do show the decoded text first. If that matters for your network, treat the QR code the same way you'd treat a printed password: don't post it somewhere strangers can screenshot it.

Does this work for WPA3 networks?

Select WPA as the security type — the Wi-Fi QR format doesn't distinguish WPA2 from WPA3 in the code itself, and both are read correctly by modern phones. Only choose WEP if your router is genuinely still using that much older standard, and "No password" only for a fully open network.

What if my Wi-Fi has no password?

Set security to "No password" in the Content tab — the password field becomes irrelevant and the generated code simply joins the open network directly.

Does it work on hidden (non-broadcasting) networks?

Yes — toggle "Hidden network" on and the code includes that flag, which tells the phone to connect directly by name rather than waiting for a broadcast.

iPhone or Android — does the same QR code work on both?

Yes. Both read the same WIFI: QR format natively in their camera apps (iOS 11+, most Android versions from the last several years) — no app download needed on either.

Can I reuse this code for a different Wi-Fi network later?

No — like every code from this tool, it's static, so the password and network name are fixed at generation time. Changing your Wi-Fi password means generating and reprinting a new code.
