Benefits of using the QR code generator

You decide what information is entered into the code. By compiling all your relevant info into a QR code, you can reduce clutter on image files or branded material. It also allows for an actionable method for your customers to interact directly with your business.

We understand the need for getting your business's information to your customers as quickly as possible. Using the free QR code generator allows you to turn whatever information you would like into a neat and reliable QR code and give it to your customers.

What is a QR Code?

QR codes were initially developed in Japan in 1994 and are a specific type of matrix barcode. This barcode is read by an optical reader and contains any information linked to it. It is excellent for accurately providing URLs, text information, geographic locations, email addresses, or other contact information.

How do I scan QR Codes?

After you have used Textmagic's QR code generator to create your QR code, you will need to scan it to see the information that it contains. This is done using an optical scanner, like the one found on your cell phone.

Most mobile devices come equipped with a QR code reader. Alternatively, you can download a free QR code reader from the app store. Open this reader and hold your phone's camera over the QR code so that it is clearly visible on the screen. Once your phone has read the QR code, it will take you to the provided link or show you the information contained within the code. It's as easy as that!
