QRNever

Free QR code generator with no expiration

Every code you download here is static. It will scan in ten years exactly as it scans today, whether or not you ever pay us anything.

Why QR codes "expire" on other sites

A QR code is just a pattern that stores data. On its own it cannot expire. What expires is the redirect service behind a dynamic code. Many generators quietly create dynamic codes: the pattern holds a short link to their server, and their server forwards scanners to your website. When a free trial ends, the server stops forwarding and shows a sign-up page instead.

This is how restaurants end up with menus that stop working, and why search results are full of people asking why their QR code suddenly broke. The code didn't change. The account did.

What "never expires" means here

Free QRNever codes put your data directly into the pattern. A URL code contains the URL. A Wi-Fi code contains the network name and password. No request is made to us when someone scans, so there is nothing for us to switch off, and nothing to break if our company closed tomorrow.

  • Unlimited codes, no account needed.
  • No watermark or branding on the image.
  • PNG up to 1000 px, custom colors, margin and error correction.
  • Nine types: URL, text, Wi-Fi, vCard, email, SMS, phone, WhatsApp and calendar event.

How we make money

Being upfront about this helps you judge whether to trust the free tool. We sell two one-time upgrades: Pro for $4.99 (SVG, PDF, high-resolution PNG, logos, styles, frames and bulk generation) and Dynamic for $9.99 (Pro plus 25 editable codes with scan stats). Nothing about the free tier is a trial, and we don't sell data.

One honest caveat: a static code is only as permanent as what it points to. If your website domain lapses, the code will open a dead page. That part is up to you.

Frequently asked questions

Is this really free forever?

Yes. Static codes are generated in your browser and cost us almost nothing to provide, so there's no reason to limit them.

What happens if QRNever shuts down?

Your static codes keep working, because they don't depend on our servers. Dynamic codes do depend on qrnever.com and would stop redirecting.

Do you add a logo or watermark?

No, never on any tier.

How can I tell whether an existing code is static or dynamic?

Scan it and look at the link. If it opens a short link on the generator's domain before reaching your site, it is dynamic and depends on that company.

Pay once. Keep it forever.
