Let guests connect to your WiFi by scanning one QR code
A WiFi hotspot QR code template is a pre-designed, scannable code that encodes a wireless network’s SSID, password, and encryption type (WPA, WPA2, or WEP) into an ISO 18004-compliant pattern. QR Code AI generates this template with 50+ customisation parameters, including 7 pixel styles, 7 marker shapes, blue gradient backgrounds, and WiFi signal icon integration for automatic network connection on scan. In Kenya, it’s commonly used in cafes, hotels, Airbnbs, co-working spaces, and offices on table tents, key cards, reception desks, and welcome guides.
















A WiFi QR code encodes three pieces of network information into one scannable pattern: the network name (SSID), password, and encryption type (WPA, WPA2, WPA3, or WEP). When scanned with a smartphone camera, the device reads the credentials and connects to the WiFi network automatically without manual password entry. QR Code AI generates WiFi QR codes using the standard WIFI:T:WPA;S:networkname;P:password;; format recognised by iOS 11+ and Android 10+.
QR Code AI creates a WiFi QR code by encoding your network name (SSID), password, and encryption type. Select this template, enter your WiFi details (WPA2 is the most common), then customise the look with 50+ parameters like pixel style, marker shape, gradient background, and WiFi icon placement. Download your WiFi QR code as PNG, SVG, or WebP for printing on table tents, room cards, or reception signs.
Sharing a WiFi password through a WiFi QR code is about as secure as sharing the password verbally or on a printed card. The password is encoded in the QR code data but is not shown as visible text on the image. For better security, set up a separate guest network with its own password, isolated from your main network. When you change the guest password, QR Code AI lets you generate a new WiFi QR code with the same template design in seconds.
A WiFi QR code generated by QR Code AI works on both iOS and Android devices. iPhones and iPads on iOS 11 or later can connect directly using the native Camera app. Android phones on Android 10 or later support automatic WiFi connection via Google Lens or the built-in camera scanner. Older devices may need a third-party QR code reader, and QR Code AI uses Reed-Solomon error correction to keep scans reliable.
Place a WiFi QR code where guests naturally pause: cafe and restaurant table tents, hotel key card holders, office reception desks, co-working space entry walls, Airbnb welcome folders, and retail checkout counters. QR Code AI exports SVG vector files for any print size, and a practical minimum is 3 cm x 3 cm for comfortable scanning. Position it at eye level or on a flat surface so guests can scan from about 10 to 30 cm away.
