Print-ready QR code generator

Create a sharp static QR for posters, flyers, packaging, menus, and signs—then keep the file forever.

Agent-ready QR API

The encoded value updates locally as you type. Nothing in these fields is sent to BananaSplit.

Start with the final destination, finish with a real scan test

SVG is the safest master file for print because it scales without soft edges. Preserve the white quiet zone and use a dark foreground on a light background.

How it works

  1. Use the final production URL

    Do not stretch or crop the QR artwork.

  2. Choose a high-contrast style

    Avoid reflective finishes over small codes.

  3. Download SVG and test the printed proof

    Test the smallest intended size before the full run.

Practical checks

  • Do not stretch or crop the QR artwork.
  • Avoid reflective finishes over small codes.
  • Test the smallest intended size before the full run.

Generate QR codes with your agent

Use the public QR code API from an agent, app, script or workflow. It returns a deterministic SVG without storing the encoded value.

Static, private, yours

  • Free for commercial use

    Use the downloaded QR code on menus, packaging, posters, tickets, stickers, or client work.

  • No expiry or scan cap

    The destination is stored in the dots. There is no BananaSplit redirect to expire or limit.

  • Built in your browser

    Your destination, Wi-Fi password, contact details, and logo stay on this device.

  • Print-ready SVG

    Download a vector file that stays sharp from a table card to event signage.

Static QR codes, without the subscription trap

Every code made here is static: the data is encoded directly in the QR pattern. It keeps working without a BananaSplit account, server, or subscription.

Static also means the destination cannot be edited after printing and BananaSplit does not collect scan analytics. If the destination may change, encode a URL you control and redirect that URL yourself.

Made in the field

We built the QR tool we wanted for our own event posters

BananaSplit first relied on QR codes while meeting people in person at Paredes de Coura and Vilar de Mouros. The codes had to print cleanly, scan quickly, and keep working after the posters left our hands.

That is why this generator is browser-first, exportable as SVG, and honest about what a static code can and cannot do. We use it for real BananaSplit activations; everyone else can use it free.

From hand-held signs to a drinks activation and sticker runs, the lesson stayed the same: leave breathing room, keep the contrast high, and scan-test the finished physical piece—not only the file.

Print-ready QR code generator FAQ

Which format is best for print?

SVG is the best master format because it scales without losing sharpness.

How small can I print it?

It depends on data density, distance, camera, and material. Print a proof at the intended size and test it.

Can a printer recolour the SVG?

Yes, but keep the modules darker than the background and scan-test any change.

Splitting the bill after the scan?

BananaSplit keeps track of who paid what, so nobody has to do maths at the table.
