Marketing Print
Flyers, posters, and postcards that send people straight to a landing page, offer, or sign-up form.
Product Packaging
Link to setup guides, warranty registration, recipe ideas, or your brand story — without cluttering the label.

Replace a long URL with a clean QR that opens your portfolio, LinkedIn, or personal site in one scan.

Conference badges, booth banners, and table tents that link to a schedule, download, or feedback form.
How to make a URL QR code
- Paste your link into QRKong — include the https:// prefix.
- Pick a colour scheme and dot pattern that matches your brand.
- Drop in a logo or icon if you want one in the centre.
- Download the PNG and drop it into your design.
Common questions
A URL QR code encodes a web address directly into the pattern. When someone scans it, their phone opens the link in a browser — no typing required.
It is the most common QR type and works with any URL: your homepage, a product page, a form, a social profile, or any other link.
It should. Most QR readers will open https:// links directly. Plain http:// works but browsers may show a "Not Secure" warning, which erodes trust.
Make sure your URL is complete — including the https:// prefix — before generating the code.
Technically, a QR code can store URLs up to around 2000 characters, but longer URLs create denser patterns that are harder to scan, especially when printed small.
Keep URLs under 100 characters where possible. If your link is long, use your website or a page on your own domain to keep the code clean and scannable.
The URL is baked into the QR pattern. If the destination moves or disappears, the printed code stops working.
Link to a page you own and control so you can update its contents — or redirect it from your domain — without reprinting.
The scan itself works offline — the device reads the URL from the pattern. But loading the destination requires an internet connection.
For offline use cases (printed guides, museum exhibits, emergency info), consider a Text QR code instead — it displays the content directly without needing a network.
