How to Create a 100% Free Custom QR Code (Step-by-Step Guide)

QR Codes Are Everywhere—Make Yours Stand Out

Whether you're promoting a website, digital menu, appointment link, or social media profile, QR codes are one of the easiest ways to connect offline audiences to your digital content. At Creativefy, we regularly include custom QR codes in our designs—from business cards and brochures to signage and packaging.

One of the best free tools to create branded, high-resolution QR codes is QRCode Monkey. Below, we’ll walk you through exactly how to use it—and why we love it.

QRCode Monkey is a 100% free QR code generator that offers:

• Unlimited static QR codes (no expiration dates or scan limits)

• High-resolution downloads in PNG, SVG, PDF, or EPS

• Full customization with your logo, brand colors, and shapes

• No account or signup required

This is especially great for print jobs, since you can download clean, scalable vector files ready for banners, brochures, or packaging.

Step 1: Go to www.qrcode-monkey.com

Open your browser and visit: www.qrcode-monkey.com

Step 2: Enter Your Destination URL or Content

At the top of the page, you’ll see a field labeled "Your URL" — enter the web address you want the QR code to lead to. This can be:

• Your website or landing page

• Booking calendar or payment link

• Instagram profile or digital business card

• PDF brochure or menu

Step 3: Customize the Look of Your Code

Click the “Set Colors” tab to change the foreground and background colors. Keep contrast high (dark on light) for best scan performance.

Then select “Add Logo Image” to upload your logo or an icon. It will appear in the center of your code.

You can also explore the “Customize Design” tab to change the style of the eyes, dots, and corners of the QR.

Step 4: Click “Create QR Code”

Once you’ve customized your design, hit the green “Create QR Code” button to generate your preview.

If it looks good and passes your phone’s scan test, you’re ready to download.

Step 5: Download Your Code

Choose the format you need:

• PNG – great for websites and digital use

• SVG / PDF / EPS – best for high-resolution print (like signs or product packaging)

We recommend SVG or PDF if you plan to send the code to Creativefy for print.

📌 Final Tips from Creativefy

• Test before printing: Always scan the QR code using multiple devices before finalizing your design.
