QR Codes on Product Packaging

A QR code on your packaging turns a small printed square into a direct link between the physical product and everything you want a buyer to see next. Whether it points to setup instructions, ingredient details, or a registration page, it works the moment someone scans it with their phone camera. Every code here is static, free to make, and generated entirely in your browser, so nothing you enter is ever uploaded.

Design your free packaging QR code

Why put a QR code on product packaging?

Connects a physical package to web content without crowding the design with text.
Static codes never expire and have no scan limits, so a printed batch stays valid for the life of the product.
Matches your brand using custom colors, gradients, dot and eye shapes, and a center logo.
Generated client-side, so product launch details and unreleased URLs stay private until you publish.
Export as SVG for crisp printing at any package size, from a sachet to a shipping box.

What to link your QR code to

Link to a video or PDF user manual so the box stays uncluttered.
Point to a product registration or warranty activation page.
Send buyers to authenticity or sourcing information about the item.
Open a reorder or accessories page for consumable products.
Share a how-to-recycle guide for the packaging itself.

Tips for QR codes on product packaging

Print at least 2 x 2 cm; increase size for boxes scanned at arm's length or behind shrink wrap.
Keep the quiet zone (clear margin) around the code free of artwork and text.
Choose durable, matte or low-gloss stock where possible, since glossy laminate can cause glare that blocks scans.
Maintain strong dark-on-light contrast and avoid placing the code over busy background graphics.
Use the built-in Debug tool to decode your rendered code before sending artwork to print.

Frequently asked questions

Will the QR code still work after I reprint the packaging?

Yes. These are static codes, so the same image keeps pointing to the same destination forever. Just reuse the exported file when you reprint.

Can I change where the code points after printing?

No. Static codes encode the destination directly, so it cannot be edited afterward. Use a stable URL you control, such as a page that you can update server-side instead.

What file format should I give my printer?

SVG is best for packaging because it stays sharp at any size. PNG, JPEG, and WebP are also available for digital proofs.
