What does the Image QR code generator do?

With Wix’s free QR code image generator, you can convert any image to a QR code that you can print or share digitally on your site, portfolio or social media.

Benefits of using a QR code for images

Creating a QR code from an image is an efficient way to share photos without printing them—saving you time and money. It’s also a great way to provide visual aids, promote your brand in an engaging way and make a memorable first impression.

Why should I generate a QR code for an image?

QR codes make it easy to share images directly with clients, customers or event attendees. They can come in useful whenever you want to share information in a visual way. For example, a graphic designer could use a QR image to show a logo mockup to a client, while a product manufacturer might share a picture of assembly instructions.

How to scan a QR code

These days, most smartphones have built-in QR scanners within the native camera app. All you have to do is point your camera at a QR code image to scan it and access the photo you’re looking for. If your device does not have a built-in QR scanner, you can download a third party QR code scanner app instead. Find out more about QR codes and how you can use them in your marketing.

Image QR Code FAQ

How do I turn a picture into a QR code?

Turning a picture into a QR code on Wix is quick and simple. Navigate to our QR Code Generator for Images web page, select the “Image” option and click “Upload Image”. From there,  select the image you want the QR code to link to and customize the QR code to your liking. Once you're happy with the design, simply click “Download” to start sharing it with your audience. 

How do I create a QR code for a JPG?

You can easily create a QR code for your JPG image in minutes with Wix’s free QR Code Generator. First, you’ll want to make sure you have your JPG saved to your computer. From there, just head over to our QR Code Generator for Images web page, click on the “Image” option and then the “Upload Image” button. Select your desired JPG file from the popup window and click the “Download” button to start using your new QR Code anywhere you’d like.

Why do I need to convert an image to QR code online?

QR codes are a great marketing tool for any business. They enable you to share large images in a single code without worrying about space limitations. Additionally, QR codes are versatile and easy to use. They can be printed on various materials, displayed on websites or social media platforms, and scanned using a smartphone camera.

Is the QR Code Generator safe?

As a technology, QR codes are safe. Any security risks associated with them have to do with the destination, or the content shared, rather than the QR codes themselves. Once generated, the content inside a static QR code cannot be changed or modified to perform a different function.

What is the difference between dynamic and static QR codes?

Wix offers a free static QR code generator. A static QR code contains information that can’t be changed once the code is live. This makes static QR codes a great way to share fixed information, such as contact information, WiFi passwords, images or URLs to specific web pages. The content of dynamic QR codes, on the other hand, can be edited even after they’re shared or printed without having to create a new code.

Will my QR code expire?

No, your Wix QR code won't ever expire. This means that once you create a QR code with Wix, it will always be active and ready to use, for as long as you want. You can add your code to any of your marketing materials, such as business cards, flyers, or posters, and it'll keep leading customers right to your website, online store, or social media pages.

What information can a QR Code hold?

A Wix QR code can hold a variety of information, including website URLs, online store links, social media profiles, phone numbers, email addresses, and more. The amount of information a QR code can hold is virtually limitless, and it's a great way to provide quick and easy access to your brand's online presence. So whether you're a small business owner, a blogger, or an artist, a Wix QR code is a powerful marketing tool that can help you connect with your audience and grow your brand.

My QR code is not working, what can I do?

First, make sure that the code is visible and scannable. If it's printed too small or on a surface that's difficult to scan, it might not work. Additionally, check that the information encoded in the code is correct and up-to-date. If you've changed your website or social media profile, for example, you'll need to update your QR code accordingly. If you're still having trouble, try generating a new code and see if that works. And if all else fails, don't hesitate to reach out to Wix's customer support team for further assistance. We're always here to help you get the most out of your QR code and ensure that it's working perfectly for your business.

How do I Scan a QR Code from a picture?

To scan a QR code from a picture, you'll need to use a QR code scanner that supports scanning from saved images. Most modern smartphones have built-in capabilities to scan QR codes directly from the camera app. However, if you're working with a photo of a QR code, open the QR code scanner from image feature within your QR code scanning app. Then, select the option to scan a QR code from photo or picture. Navigate to the photo containing the QR code, and the app will process the QR code, directing you to the linked image or content. This feature is especially useful when accessing QR codes that have been shared online or through social media.
