Bulk QR code generator from Excel & CSV

How it works

1. Add your list. Upload a CSV or Excel file with column names in the first row, or paste one value per line. You see a preview of the first rows straight away. Not sure how to lay it out? Download a sample: product links, contacts or Wi-Fi networks.
2. Choose what goes into each code. Encode a column exactly as it is, or build the content from a template such as https://shop.example.com/p/{{SKU}}. Presets handle Wi-Fi logins, contact cards, emails, text messages and phone numbers, including the fiddly escaping.
3. Check, then download. Every row is validated, the first 24 codes are previewed, and you download a ZIP of images named after your data, or a PDF laid out for your label sheets.

What people make with it

• Product labels and SKUs Link every product to its page, manual or reorder form. File names come from the SKU column, so artwork teams can drop codes straight into packaging.
• Asset tags and inventory Give each laptop, tool or shelf bin a code that opens its record in your asset system, printed on standard sticky labels.
• Event badges and tickets One code per attendee, carrying a ticket reference or a link to their schedule, with the name printed as a caption.
• Restaurant tables A code per table that opens the menu or ordering page with the table number already filled in: …/menu?table={{Table}}.
• Business cards and vCards Turn a staff list into contact codes that save name, phone, email and company to a phone in one tap.
• Wi-Fi cards Hotels, offices and holiday lets can print a join-the-network card for every room or site. See the bulk Wi-Fi guide.
• Inventory and stock counts Codes on bins and shelves that link to the right spreadsheet row or form speed up counts and reduce typing errors.
• Classrooms and libraries Link worksheets, videos or book records; printing on labels makes it easy to stick codes into books and handouts.

Static codes that never expire

There are two kinds of QR code. A static code stores your link or text inside the pattern itself. A dynamic code stores a short link to someone else’s server, which then redirects the scanner to your real destination.

Dynamic codes let a provider count scans and change the destination later – but they only work while that provider keeps the redirect running. Many “free” QR sites create dynamic codes and then switch them off after a trial period or unless you subscribe, which breaks codes that are already printed on packaging, menus and signs.

Every code made here is static. There is no redirect in the middle, nothing to renew and nothing that can be switched off. If you need the flexibility of a dynamic code, you can have it without a subscription: point your codes at pages on your own website and change those pages (or their redirects) whenever you like.

Printing tips so every code scans

• Size. About 2 cm (0.8 in) square is a sensible minimum for a short link. As a rule of thumb, make the code at least a tenth of the distance it will be scanned from, so a poster read from 2 m needs a code about 20 cm wide.
• Keep content short. Every extra character makes the pattern denser and each square (module) smaller. A short link prints smaller and scans faster than a long one with tracking parameters you don’t need.
• Contrast. Dark code on a light background is the safest choice. Pale colours, busy backgrounds and light-on-dark (inverted) codes fail on some phones; the tool warns you when a colour pair is risky.
• Quiet zone. Leave the blank border (four modules is the standard) and don’t let text, borders or artwork touch the code.
• Error correction. Level M suits most printing. Choose Q or H for labels that will be handled, scuffed or exposed to weather, and L to keep very long content as small as possible.
• Print at 100%. Turn off “fit to page” so label sheets line up, and prefer matte labels: glossy ones can reflect light into the camera.
• Test before the big run. Print one sheet, scan several codes with two or three different phones, and check they open the right thing. It takes two minutes and can save a box of labels.

Your data stays on your device

Spreadsheets often contain things you would rather not hand to a stranger: customer names, internal links, Wi-Fi passwords. This tool never uploads them. Your file is opened by your own browser, the QR codes are drawn by your own computer or phone, and the ZIP or PDF is assembled locally before your browser saves it.

Your settings (not your data) are remembered in your browser so the tool is set up the way you left it next time. The page does load a few open-source components, such as the spreadsheet reader, from a public code library, but nothing you type or upload is sent with those requests.
