Free tool
Free QR code generator
Make a QR code for any link. It's free, needs no account, and never expires: the code holds your link itself. When you want to hear back from the people who scan it, follo can make it a code they follow.
Make your QR code
Make it a follo code
A plain code opens your link, and that's the end of it. A follo code opens a page with your link on it, and people who scan can follow. Then, when something changes, you tell them: a price, a date, a new arrival, a cancellation.
Free to start. You sign in with your email address, and your link is filled in for you.
How QR codes are used
Signs and storefronts
A window or a yard sign links to the listing, the menu or the booking page, even when you're closed.
Menus and tables
One code on the table opens today's menu, so you change the page instead of reprinting.
Flyers and posters
An event poster links to tickets or details, so the paper doesn't have to hold everything.
Packaging and labels
A code on the box opens instructions, care details or the reorder page.
Business cards
A small code opens your site or portfolio without anyone typing an address.
Markets and pop-ups
A code on the table opens your shop, so a browser today can buy next week.
Tips for a code that scans
Keep it dark on light
Black on white scans best. That's what this tool makes.
Print it big enough
About 2 cm (0.8 in) across for something held in a hand, and bigger for a sign read from a distance. SVG stays sharp at any size.
Leave the white border
The blank margin around the code helps phones find it. Don't crop it off.
Scan it before you print
Try it with your own phone, and check that the link opens the page you meant.
Questions
Do these QR codes expire?
No. The code holds your link itself, not a redirect through us, so it works for as long as your link does.
Is it really free?
Yes. No account, no watermark, and no limit on how many codes you make.
Do you see the links I enter?
No. The code is made in your browser, and nothing you type is sent to follo.
Can I tell who scanned it?
Not with a plain code. With a follo code, people who scan can choose to follow, and you can send them updates later.
What follo is
follo is a one-way notification service that lets people follow a person, business, product, event, group, property, waitlist, or other subject through a link or QR code and receive updates from its owner.
