How To Use

How to make a WiFi QR code sign in 3 steps

1

Enter your guest network

Type the network name (SSID) exactly as it shows in your phone's Wi-Fi list, pick the security type and add the password. Tick "hidden network" if your router does not broadcast the name. The tool checks the details as you type, so a wrong password length or a missing name is flagged before you print.

2

Brand the sign

Add your company name and logo, choose a style and brand colour, and write your own headline and instructions. Want guests to sign in too? Add a second QR code that opens your visitor check-in or registration page.

3

Download, print and test

Choose A4, US Letter, A5, Half Letter, a folding table tent, a 4 × 6 in card or a business-card size desk card. Download a PDF at the real paper size, a 300 DPI PNG, or print straight from the page. Scan the printed sign with an iPhone and an Android phone before you put it up.

Sign Essentials

What makes a guest WiFi QR code work every time

📶

A real WiFi QR code

The code holds your network details in the standard WIFI: format, so the phone camera offers to join the network straight away. It does not open a web page first, and it keeps working without any internet connection.

🔒

The right security type

Choose WPA/WPA2/WPA3 for almost every modern router, WEP only for very old equipment, and None for an open network. If the type on the sign does not match the router, phones will fail to connect.

🔤

Exact name and password

Network names and passwords are case-sensitive. Symbols like ; , : " and \ are escaped for you, and accented letters, emoji and non-Latin scripts are encoded as UTF-8, so "Café-Gäste" connects as "Café-Gäste".

👁️

Readable for everyone

The network name and password are also printed in large text, with the password in a clear monospaced font, so guests with older phones or laptops can type them in by hand.

🫥

Hidden networks

If your guest network does not broadcast its name, tick "hidden network". The QR code then tells the phone to look for it, so guests can still join with one scan.

🔁

Check-in on the same sign

Add a second QR code that opens your visitor check-in or registration form. Guests connect and sign in at the same moment, and you know who is in the building.

Who It's For

Guest WiFi signs for every kind of workplace

🏢

Office receptions

Put a branded A4 or Letter sign at the front desk so clients and candidates connect without asking, and your receptionist never has to read the password aloud.

🤝

Meeting and training rooms

A folding table tent or a 4 × 6 in card on the table gets every visitor online before the meeting starts.

💻

Coworking spaces

Hand day-pass members a business-card size Wi-Fi card, or print a sheet of cards with cut marks for the welcome desk.

🏥

Clinics and waiting rooms

Patients and visitors can join the guest network from their seat, and the sign keeps your staff network details private.

🏭

Factories and warehouses

Give drivers, contractors and auditors a guest network in the lobby or driver lounge, paired with a check-in QR so every arrival is recorded.

🏫

Schools and campuses

Post the visitor network in the main office for parents, guest speakers and inspectors, kept separate from the staff and student networks.

Printed WiFi sign vs. automatic visitor check-in

Guest WiFi sign (this free tool)
  1. Guest arrives at reception
  2. Guest scans the WiFi QR on the sign
  3. Phone joins the guest network
  4. Receptionist contacts the host manually
  5. No record of who visited, unless you add a check-in QR
  6. Sign is reprinted whenever the password changes
Fast WiFi access, no visit record
Vizitor visitor check-in

  2. Host notified instantly
  3. Guest receives your WiFi details automatically

The WiFi QR gets guests online. Vizitor also tells you who they are, who they came to see and when they left.

Printing Tips

How to print and place your WiFi QR code sign

Pick the right size

A4 or US Letter for a wall or door, A5 or Half Letter for an acrylic table stand, the folding table tent for meeting tables, 4 × 6 in for small frames, and the 3.5 × 2 in desk card to hand out. PDFs are made at the real paper size: print at 100% or "Actual size", not "Fit to page".

Use sturdy paper

Plain paper is fine for a quick sign. For a lasting reception sign, print on 200-300 gsm card or laminate it. Use a matt finish if you can: glossy lamination can reflect light and make the code harder to scan.

Place it where guests pause

At eye level on the reception desk, on meeting room tables or next to the waiting area seats. Keep the QR code flat, well lit and at least a few centimetres (about 1.5 in) wide, and test-scan it from where guests will stand.

Keep the password current

If you change the guest password, update it in the tool (your last sign is saved in this browser) and reprint. An old code that no longer connects is worse than no sign at all.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this guest WiFi QR code generator free?
Yes. It is free with no limit on how many WiFi QR codes or signs you make, and you don’t need an account. We ask for your name and work email once per browser session before a download or print, so we can send you reception sign tips.
How do I create a QR code for my WiFi network?
Enter your network name (SSID), choose the security type (WPA/WPA2/WPA3, WEP or none) and type the password. Tick “hidden network” if the name is not broadcast. The tool builds the QR code instantly, and you can add your logo and headline before downloading a PDF or PNG or printing the sign.
Do guests need an app to scan the WiFi QR code?
No. The built-in camera app on iPhone (iOS 11 or later) and most Android phones (Android 10 or later, or Google Lens on older models) reads WiFi QR codes and offers to join the network. Guests tap the prompt and they are connected.
Which security type should I choose?
Choose WPA/WPA2/WPA3 Personal for almost every modern router, including WPA3 and mixed WPA2/WPA3 networks. Choose WEP only for very old equipment, and None for an open network without a password. The type must match your router, or phones will not connect. Enterprise (802.1X) networks with a username and password per user are not supported by standard WiFi QR codes.
Does it work with hidden networks?
Yes. Tick “This is a hidden network” and the QR code includes the hidden flag (H:true), which tells the phone to connect even though the network name is not broadcast. The name must match your router exactly, including capitals and spaces.
Can my network name or password contain special characters or accents?
Yes. Characters that have a special meaning in WiFi QR codes, such as ; , : " and , are escaped automatically. Accented letters, emoji and non-Latin scripts such as Hindi are encoded as UTF-8, so a network called “Café-Gäste” connects correctly. Network names can be up to 32 bytes, and WPA passwords need 8 to 63 characters.
Is my WiFi password stored or sent anywhere?
No. The QR code and the sign are created in your browser, and your WiFi password is never sent to our servers. Your last design, including the password, is saved only in your own browser so you can edit it later. Click Reset to clear it.
What sizes can I print the WiFi sign in?
A4 (210 x 297 mm), US Letter (8.5 x 11 in), A5 and Half Letter for table stands, a folding table tent printed on A4 or US Letter, a 4 x 6 in card and a 3.5 x 2 in desk card. Desk cards can be printed one per page or as a sheet of cards with cut marks. PDFs are made at the real paper size and PNGs at 300 DPI.
Can I add a visitor check-in QR code to the same sign?
Yes. Tick the check-in option and paste the link to your visitor check-in or registration page. A second, smaller QR code with your own label appears on the sign, so guests can connect to WiFi and sign in from the same spot. The tool checks that the link is a valid web address.
Why is my WiFi QR code not connecting?
Check that the network name and password match your router exactly, including capitals, and that the security type is right. If the password changed, update it and reprint. Also make sure the printed code is flat, well lit and not too small, and print at 100% rather than “Fit to page”.
How is this different from Vizitor's visitor management system?
This free tool makes a printed WiFi sign. With Vizitor, guests check in on a tablet or by scanning a QR code, their host is notified instantly, they receive your WiFi details automatically at check-in, and every visit is saved in a digital visitor log. You can start a free trial to try it.
