From open-source APIs to fully hosted SaaS platforms, QR code generators cover a wide range of needs. Here's how to pick the right one for your projects.
MyFreeQRCode: customisation without signup
Create QR codes in seconds, select the content type, choose your colours and download PNG or SVG files instantly.
Restaurant-focused solutions
Platforms such as Sunday or Popina integrate with POS systems, making them perfect for table ordering — but they come at a subscription cost.
Open-source alternatives
Services like QR Server or ZXing offer free APIs yet require development effort to deliver branded experiences.
Decision criteria
- Expected number of scans.
- Depth of analytics and export options.
- Design customisation (logo, colours, vector output).
