Preview background

QR Code Banana is a free, browser-based QR code generator that creates scannable QR codes for URLs, text, email, phone numbers, WiFi networks, business cards, and SMS messages. All processing happens locally in your browser — your data is never sent to any server.

Runs entirely in your browser

No signup required

No watermark, no limits

Free since 2025

How is this free?

QR codes are static — the data lives in the dots, not on our server. Zero hosting cost per code means we never need to charge you for the basics.

What's the catch?

There isn't one for static QRs. If you later need dynamic codes (editable destination, scan stats), that's a paid feature — but it's genuinely opt-in, not a forced upgrade.

Who's behind this?

Built by Gerrit Halfmann, a solo developer. Open about the roadmap, contactable, and not VC-funded — which is why we can afford to stay free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is QR Code Banana really free?

Yes — the QR code generator is 100% free, with no signup, no hidden fees, and no watermarks. Every generator feature is available to everyone, forever. Banana Pro is an optional $5/month upgrade that adds dynamic (editable) QR codes and scan analytics — it never gates anything the free tool already does.

Do I need to create an account to use QR Code Banana?

No account or signup is required. Just visit the site, enter your data, customize your QR code, and download it instantly. Your data never leaves your browser.

Do QR codes created with QR Code Banana expire?

No. QR codes generated by QR Code Banana are static codes that encode your data directly. They never expire, never stop working, and don't depend on our servers. Once you download your QR code, it works forever.

What types of QR codes can I create?

You can create QR codes for URLs, plain text, email addresses, phone numbers, WiFi networks, digital business cards (vCard), and SMS messages. Calendar event QR codes are coming soon. Each type formats the data so it's recognized correctly when scanned.

What file formats can I download?

You can download your QR codes as SVG (vector, perfect for print), PNG (raster, great for digital use), or JPG (compressed raster). You can also choose a custom download size up to 2000px.

Can I customize the colors of my QR code?

Yes! You can set a custom foreground color, background color, or even apply a color gradient (linear or radial). You can also make the background transparent for overlaying on images or designs.

Are the QR codes scannable with any phone?

Yes. All modern smartphones (iPhone and Android) can scan QR codes using their built-in camera app. No special QR code scanner app is needed.

Is it safe to use QR Code Banana?

Yes. All QR code generation happens directly in your browser — the data you enter is never sent to our servers. We use Simple Analytics for basic website usage stats, which collects no personal data, uses no cookies, and doesn't store IP addresses.
