How to create a WiFi Network QR code
- 1
Enter your network name exactly as it appears when devices search for Wi-Fi (this is the SSID).
- 2
Select the correct Security type — WPA/WPA2/WPA3, WEP, or Open if there's no password.
- 3
Enter the network password, matching the length and format your security type requires.
- 4
Toggle Hidden network on only if your SSID isn't broadcast.
- 5
Open Customize appearance for colors, style, size, and an optional logo.
- 6
Click Generate QR Code, download it, and test a scan on one device before printing or handing it out widely.
Common uses for WiFi Network QR codes
- Guest Wi-Fi cards in Airbnbs and hotel rooms
- Table tents at cafés and coworking spaces
- Printed inserts in a router's welcome packet
- Visitor badges at offices with a guest network
Tips for better results
- Regenerate and reprint the code whenever the password changes — old prints will silently stop working.
- Prefer WPA2/WPA3 for security; WEP is only here for legacy hardware that doesn't support anything newer.
Features
- Real per-protocol password rules
- Enforces actual WPA (8–63 characters) and WEP (5/13 ASCII or 10/26 hex) length requirements, not a generic "non-empty" check.
- Byte-accurate SSID limit
- Measures your network name in bytes, correctly accounting for multi-byte characters against the 802.11 32-byte cap.
- Hidden network support
- A dedicated toggle for networks that don't broadcast their SSID.
- Open network support
- Skip the password entirely for networks with no security.
- Full visual customization
- Colors, dot and corner style, size, margin, error correction, and an optional logo.
Benefits
- No typing passwords
- Guests connect with one scan instead of carefully retyping a long, mixed-case Wi-Fi password.
- Fewer support requests
- Cuts down on "what's the Wi-Fi password?" questions at hotels, cafés, offices, and rentals.
- Works without asking staff
- A printed card or sticker means guests can join independently, any time.
- Fully private
- Network details are encoded entirely client-side — nothing is transmitted to a server.
- Free with no limits
- Generate as many Wi-Fi QR codes as you need, for as many networks as you manage.
Frequently asked questions
Their phone recognizes the encoded network details and shows a prompt to join — tapping it connects automatically using the embedded SSID and password, with no manual typing.
No — you only need the Wi-Fi network name and password guests actually use to connect, not the router's separate admin login.
Select "Open (no password)" as the security type — the password field becomes unnecessary and the generated code will let devices join without one.
The generator checks real length rules per security type: WPA/WPA2/WPA3 passwords must be 8–63 characters, and WEP keys must be exactly 5 or 13 characters (or 10/26 hex digits) — matching the actual constraints those protocols enforce, not just "something was typed."
Enable it only if your router is configured to not broadcast its SSID publicly. If your network shows up normally when searching for Wi-Fi, leave this off — enabling it for a broadcast network isn't needed and doesn't change how the code works.
Yes — the SSID and password are encoded as plain text within the pattern, so anyone with a QR reader (not just a phone camera) could technically extract them. Only distribute the code to people you're comfortable giving network access to.
Any QR codes generated with the old password stop working — you'll need to generate a new code and reprint or redistribute it. There's no way to update a code already printed or shared.
Only if the hardware genuinely requires it — WEP is a significantly weaker, outdated protocol. Prefer WPA2 or WPA3 whenever your router and devices support it.
No — this format supports standard WPA/WPA2/WPA3 personal networks with a single shared password, not enterprise networks that require individual username/password authentication (802.1X).
That depends on their device's Wi-Fi settings UI — some phones show the saved password after joining, others hide it. Assume it could be visible and only share the QR code with people you trust with network access.
Yes, though the 802.11 standard caps network names at 32 bytes — multi-byte characters like emoji or accented letters use more of that budget per character than plain ASCII, so the generator measures actual byte length, not just character count.
Yes — it's one of the most common uses. A printed card by the router or in a welcome guide lets guests join instantly without asking the host or hunting for a sticker on the router itself.
