Start from a style
In the Design tab, the Styles row gives you ready-made color combinations such as Classic, Midnight, Ocean or Gold. Pick one as a starting point, then fine-tune it.
Customize step by step
- 1Code color: choose the color of the modules. Dark colors scan best.
- 2Background: choose a light color, or keep white.
- 3Module shape: square, dots, rounded or classy.
- 4Center logo: upload your logo. It is placed in the middle of the code.
- 5Frame: add a frame and a call to action, such as SCAN ME, FREE WIFI or SEE THE MENU, or type your own text.
Rules that keep your code scannable
- Keep strong contrast: a dark code on a light background.
- Avoid a light code on a dark background; some scanners can't read inverted codes.
- Keep the logo small. The generator warns you if it covers too much of the code.
- Leave the white margin around the code when you place it in your design.
Why a frame helps
People scan more when they know what they'll get. A short call to action like “SEE THE MENU” or “SCAN FOR WIFI” tells them why to pull out their phone, and makes your code stand out on a busy flyer.
