Most sets come from Sanzo Wada’s 1933 dictionary of colour combinations, picked for contrast that scans.
Everything happens in your browser. What you type, your WiFi password and your logo never leave your device. For print, use the SVG: it stays sharp at any size.
How a WiFi QR code works
The code contains your network name, the password and the type of security, written in a standard format that phones understand. On an iPhone, people open the camera, point it at the code and tap the message that appears. Most Android phones do the same from the camera app; on some, people open Google Lens instead. Nobody has to type anything, so nobody gets the password wrong.
Getting the details right
- Network name: type it exactly as phones show it in the WiFi list, with the same capitals and spaces.
- Security: almost every router today uses WPA2 or WPA3, which is the first option. Choose WEP only for a very old router, and None only for an open network without a password.
- Hidden network: tick this only if your network does not appear in the list of networks.
- Special characters in the password, like ; or :, are handled for you.
Then use the scan test, and join the network once with your own phone before you print.
Where to put it
Where people need the WiFi in their first minutes: by the entrance or reception, on the table cards in a café, in the welcome folder or on the inside of the front door in a holiday rental. A short line of text under the code, like "Scan to join the WiFi", helps people understand what it is. You can add it above.
If you rent out rooms or apartments, small things like this are part of what makes guests come back, and book directly next time. We wrote about that in how to get guests to book direct.
Questions
Does a WiFi QR code work on iPhone?
Yes. The iPhone camera has read WiFi codes since iOS 11. People point the camera at the code and tap the message to join.
Does it work on Android?
Yes. Most Android phones read it from the camera app; on some, people use Google Lens. Either way they join without typing the password.
Is it safe to put my WiFi password in a QR code?
It is as safe as a password written on a card: anyone who can scan it can join. That is why a separate guest network is a good idea. The code itself is made in your browser, so we never see your password.
What happens if I change my WiFi password?
The old code stops working, because the password is inside it. Make a new code here with the new password and replace the printed one.
Can I add my logo?
Yes. Upload it in step 2. The code then uses stronger error correction so that it still scans with the logo in the middle.
