How to Create a WiFi QR Code for Guests

Create a WiFi QR code for cafes, offices, hotels, rentals, and home networks.

Collect network details

You need the network name, password, and security type. WPA/WPA2 is the most common option.

Generate the WiFi QR

Enter the details into the WiFi QR generator and create the code. Phones can read the standard WiFi QR format and offer to join the network.

Print placement

Place the QR where guests can see it, but do not expose private network credentials in public areas if access should be limited.

Use a guest network instead of your main business or home network. Change the password when needed and print a new code.
