How do I generate a QR code for my presentation?
Paste your link into the QR code generator, choose your colors, and click Generate. Download the image and insert it into PowerPoint or Google Slides like any other picture. That's how to generate a QR code in under a minute, with no account or software needed.
Is this QR code generator free?
Yes. Your first three QR codes are free. Any SlideUpLift membership gives you unlimited QR codes plus every other presentation tool.
Do the QR codes expire?
No. This tool generates static QR codes, so the link is stored in the code itself. It keeps working as long as your destination page exists.
Can I change the link after I generate a QR code?
Not on a static code. If your link changes, generate a new QR code and replace the image on your slide.
What can I generate a QR code for?
Four things: a website or campaign URL, a vCard business card, a pre-filled email, or a calendar event. The URL option covers websites, forms, booking pages, PDFs, video links, and social profiles.
Can I add my logo or change the colors?
Yes. Set the foreground and background colors to match your deck and place a logo in the center, as a circle, rounded square, or square. Keep the contrast high so the code still scans.
What file format do I get?
A high-resolution PNG that you can insert into PowerPoint, Google Slides, or Keynote and resize on the slide.
Can I use it with Creatos AI?
Yes. Download the PNG, then open Creatos AI, add the image to a slide, and build the rest of your presentation around it before exporting to PowerPoint.
How big should a QR code be on a slide?
Bigger than you think. A code that's fine on a business card is unreadable from the back of a conference room. As a rule of thumb, the scanning distance is about ten times the width of the code, so a code that needs to be scanned from 5 meters away should be roughly 50 cm wide on the projected screen. Test it in the actual room if you can.
Does the QR code have a watermark?
No. The QR code you download is clean and yours to use anywhere.
Is a QR code generator safe to use?
QR codes are only as safe as the link inside them. Use links you control, preview the destination before presenting, and avoid shortening services you don't recognize.
