Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add a logo without affecting scannability?

Yes! QR codes have built-in error correction that allows for some data loss. Keep logos under 20% of the total QR code area and test thoroughly before final use.

What's the best size for printed QR codes?

The minimum recommended size is 2×2 cm (0.8×0.8 inches) for reliable scanning. For business cards, 1.5×1.5 cm usually works well. Always test at actual print size.

Do all QR code scanners support styled QR codes?

Most modern QR code scanners, including phone cameras, can read styled QR codes as long as there's sufficient contrast and the patterns are recognizable.

How much data can a QR code store?

QR codes can store up to 4,296 alphanumeric characters or 7,089 numeric characters, but practical limits are lower for reliable scanning. URLs should be kept under 100 characters when possible.

Which style presets work best for marketing?

Modern and Ocean presets offer professional appeal with good contrast. Classic works for traditional brands, while Sunset adds energy for creative industries.

How do gradients affect QR code scanning?

Subtle gradients with sufficient contrast work well. Avoid high contrast gradients within the QR pattern area. Test thoroughly on different devices and lighting conditions.

What file formats can I upload for logos?

All standard image formats are supported: PNG (recommended for transparency), JPEG, GIF, WebP. PNG provides the best quality for logos with transparent backgrounds.
