How to Make a WiFi QR Code

  1. Type the network name. Enter the network name (SSID) exactly as phones show it - capitals and spaces count.
  2. Add the password and security. Most networks use WPA, WPA2 or WPA3. Pick None for an open network, and turn on Hidden network if it does not broadcast its name.
  3. Style it. Pick a preset, your colours or another icon for the middle. The live scan check confirms the code still reads.
  4. Print the sign. Open Printable WiFi sign, set the heading and size, and download the card as a PDF or PNG.

Running a cafe, hotel or office with several networks? Paste a list with ssid, password and security columns into Many codes at once, or use the Bulk QR Code Generator. For a full walkthrough with print sizes, read how to make a WiFi QR code.

Which Phones Can Scan a WiFi QR Code?

Every recent phone joins WiFi straight from the camera app.

iPhones do it from iOS 11 and Android phones from Android 10. Older Android models use Google Lens or the QR scanner in Quick Settings.

DeviceHow guests join
iPhone or iPad (iOS 11 and newer)Open the Camera, point it at the code, tap Join
Android 10 and newerCamera app, or the QR icon in Quick Settings
Older Android phonesGoogle Lens, then tap Connect
Windows or Mac laptopRead the code with a scanner, then type the password it shows

Laptops can read the code with our QR Code Scanner - it shows the network name and password, ready to copy.

What Makes a Good WiFi Sign

A code big enough

Aim for 4-5 cm on a table card and 10 cm or more on a wall, where people scan from further away.

The password in words too

Some guests use laptops or older phones. Printing the network name and password under the code saves them asking.

A clear heading

Free WiFi, Guest WiFi or Scan to connect - people should know what the code does before they lift a phone.

New password, new sign

The password lives inside the code. Change the password and you need a fresh code and a fresh sign.

Printing on glossy card? Test the printed sign under your real lights with the camera test in the QR Code Checker - glare can hide modules. Want the sign in your brand colour? Pick it from your logo with the Image Color Picker.

What Is Inside a WiFi QR Code

A WiFi QR code holds one short line of text that phones know how to read.

WIFI:T:WPA;S:Cafe Guest;P:coffee-2026;;

T is the security type (WPA, WEP or nopass), S the network name, P the password and H:true marks a hidden network. Characters such as ; , : and " get a backslash in front - the generator does that for you.

Curious how that text turns into squares? Watch it happen step by step in the QR Code Explainer.

Frequently Asked Questions

The password sits in the code as plain text, so anyone who scans it can read it - just like anyone who reads it off a sign. Give visitors a separate guest network and keep your main network private.

Making the code here is private: it is built in your browser and nothing is sent to our servers.

No. It works for as long as the network name and password stay the same. Change either one and the old code stops working, so make a new code and reprint the sign.

Check the network name first - it is case-sensitive, and a space at the end counts. Then check the security type: WPA3 networks still use WPA in the code. Hidden networks need the Hidden network switch turned on.

Still stuck? Read the code back with the QR Code Scanner to see exactly what it holds.

The name is the one in your phone's WiFi list. The password is usually on a sticker on the router.

Already connected? Windows 11 shows it under your network's properties in the WiFi settings, iPhones show it under Settings, WiFi and the (i) next to the network, and Macs keep it in Keychain Access.

Take the scanning distance and divide by 10: about 3-5 cm on a table card read from 30-50 cm, and 10-20 cm on a wall or window read from 1-2 metres.

The A6 sign from Printable WiFi sign gives a code about 6 cm wide - right for tables and counters.

Yes. In Many codes at once, paste or load a CSV with the columns ssid, password and security (WPA, WEP or open). Each row becomes its own code, and you get them all in one ZIP - or on label sheets if you pick PDF with the Labels page. The Bulk QR Code Generator starts with that panel open.

Yes. The WiFi icon is already in the middle - open Logo to pick another icon or upload your own image, and the code switches to error correction H so it still scans.

Keep the code clearly darker than the background. Not sure about a colour pair? Test it in the Color Contrast Checker.

Completely free - no sign-up, no watermark and no scan limits. The printable sign is free too, in PDF or PNG.
