Create and manage QR codes with ease using our API. Generate static QR codes for fixed URLs or manage dynamic QR codes with full create, manage and delete functionality, allowing you to update destinations and track usage.
Sign up for an account to get your API key, available in your dashboard.
Generate static QR codes with a simple GET request. These codes are fixed and redirect to a pre-defined URL, and the default output format is SVG which means the image can be resized without becoming pixellated or blurry.
