What is a WiFi QR Code?
A WiFi QR code encodes your network name (SSID), password and security type directly in the QR pattern. When scanned, the phone displays a prompt asking if the user wants to join the network — no typing required.
How Does it Work?
The QR code contains a string in this format:
WIFI:T:WPA;S:YourNetworkName;P:YourPassword;H:false;;
When scanned on Android or iOS, the operating system reads this format and offers to connect automatically. No app is required on modern phones (Android 10+, iOS 14+).
How to Create a WiFi QR Code
Go to FREE QR 360 and select Wi-Fi from the QR type picker.
Fill in your Network Name (SSID), Password, and choose the security type (WPA/WPA2 for most networks, WEP for older routers, None for open networks).
Add your brand colors, a logo, and choose a dot style. Keep good contrast for reliable scanning.

Best Practices
- Print the QR code at least 3×3 cm for reliable phone scanning at arm's length.
- Use high contrast — black QR on white background scans most reliably.
- Place the QR code near the entrance, at tables, and at the counter.
- If you change your WiFi password, create and reprint a new QR code.
- Do not share the QR code digitally if you want to limit access to physical visitors only.
- Test the QR code with two different phones before displaying.
