Wixel: Creating a QR Code with the QR Code Generator

In this article
  • Creating a QR code
  • FAQs

Create your very own QR (Quick Response) code, for people to scan and get to the action you want. The code can lead to a URL, your email and much more.

Once you download your QR code (free of charge), you can upload it directly to your site, social media, or even add it to your branding materials.

Creating a QR code

Create your QR code by choosing the type of content you wish to direct your visitors to. Then, design the QR code's look and customize the file type and size.

To create a QR code:

  1. Go to the QR Code Generator.
    Note: If you're logged into Wixel, the link takes you to your Wixel home page instead. Learn how to create a QR code in Wixel.

  2. Select the content type you want your QR code to direct your users to (e.g. URL, PDF, WiFi).

  3. Enter/upload the relevant details or content.

  4. Design your QR code:

    • Body: Select a body shape, foreground and background colors. Select the Enable foreground gradient checkbox to blend two foreground colors.

    • Eye: Select a border style and center style for the corners, and select a color for each.

    • Logo: Select a logo or click Upload custom logo to add your own.
      Tip: Check the Contrast level indicator under the preview. A green checkmark means the colors you chose scan reliably.

  5. Customize your QR code using the following options:

    • File name: Click the Edit icon next to File name and enter a name.

    • Format: Click the dropdown and select a file type you want to download your QR code as (e.g. PNG, SVG).

    • Export size: Click the dropdown and select a export size.

  6. Click Download QR Code.

  7. Log in to your Wixel account or sign up. Once logged in, the QR code will automatically download to your computer.
