QR Code Generator

QR Code Generator

The QR Code Generator lets you create custom, branded QR codes for your events. Whether you need a WiFi QR code for your venue, a UPI payment code for registrations, or a branded URL code for marketing materials — this tool handles it all.

How to Get There

QR Studio > Generate QR Code

1. Navigate to the QR Studio section.
2. Tap Generate QR Code.
3. The generator opens with a form on the left and a live preview on the right (or stacked on mobile).

Supported Content Types

The generator supports 10 different content types:

Content Type	What It Generates	Use Case
Website URL	Link to any web page	Event registration page, social media profiles, feedback forms
Plain Text	Any text message	Venue directions, welcome messages, special instructions
Email	Pre-filled email compose	Contact the organiser, RSVP via email
Phone Number	Direct phone dial	Emergency contact, registration hotline
SMS Message	Pre-filled SMS	Quick RSVP via SMS, support messages
WiFi Network	Auto-connect to WiFi	Venue WiFi for guests — no password typing needed
Contact (vCard)	Save contact card	Share your organiser or business contact
Calendar Event	Add event to calendar	Auto-add your event date, time, and venue to attendees’ calendars

UPI Payment	Direct UPI payment	Accept payments, donations, or registration fees via UPI (popular in India)

WiFi QR for Indian Venues

Print a WiFi QR code and place it at the registration desk, photo booth, or dining area. Guests scan once and connect — no need to spell out “VenueName@2024” or share passwords over a noisy Sangeet party.

Creating a QR Code

Step 1: Choose Content Type

1. Select the content type from the Content Type dropdown.
2. A specialised form appears based on your selection:
   • URL: Enter the website address
   • Phone: Enter the phone number (with +91 country code)
   • WiFi: Enter network name, password, and encryption type
   • UPI: Enter UPI ID, payee name, and optional amount
   • vCard: Fill in name, phone, email, organization
   • Calendar Event: Set title, date, time, location
   • And so on for each type

Step 2: Customise Appearance

QR Colour:

• Solid Colour: Choose from preset colours (Navy, Black, Green, Maroon, Purple, Orange) or pick a custom colour
• Gradient: Select gradient type (linear), adjust rotation, and configure multiple colour stops for a vibrant look

Logo Embedding:

• Upload your event or brand logo
• Adjust logo size (up to 30% of QR area)
• Set logo margin for clean spacing
• The logo appears centred on the QR code

Step 3: Advanced Options

URL Shortener (URL content type only):

• Toggle on to shorten long URLs
• Creates a cleaner, more scannable QR code

Campaign Tracking (URL content type only):

• Add UTM parameters for marketing analytics
• Set source, medium, campaign name

Server-Side Generation:

• Toggle on for server-generated QR codes (higher quality, more customisation)
• Toggle off for instant client-side generation (faster, works offline)

Step 4: Generate

1. Tap Generate QR Code.
2. The preview panel shows your QR code.
3. Download, share, or copy the QR code image.

Layout

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
QR code does not scan	Ensure the content is valid (e.g., URL starts with https://). Test by scanning with your phone’s camera before printing.
Logo makes QR code unscannable	Reduce the logo size. QR codes have error correction, but logos larger than 30% may interfere with scanning.
Gradient colours are too similar	Use contrasting colours for the gradient. If the QR code blends into the background, scanners may struggle.
Server-side generation fails	Check your internet connection. Switch to client-side generation (toggle off “Server-side”) for instant results.
URL shortener shows error	The URL shortener service may be temporarily unavailable. Proceed without shortening — the QR code will work with the full URL.
UPI QR code not working	Verify the UPI ID format (e.g., name@bankcode). Test the QR code with a UPI app (Google Pay, PhonePe) before distributing.
