Free Donation QR Code Generator

At a fundraiser, service, or event table, giving is easiest when it takes one step, and a QR code can turn a printed sign into that step. Paste your donation page link into the box above, click Generate, and download the PNG for flyers and posters. Donors want to be sure they have landed in the right place, so the sign around the code matters as much as the code.

How to make your QR code

  1. Find your donation page address: the page where people already give online.
  2. Open it and copy the link, using Share then Copy link or the browser's address bar.
  3. Paste your donation link into the box above and click Generate.
  4. Click Download PNG and place the code on your flyer, poster, or table sign.
  5. Scan it yourself and confirm the page that opens is the right one and shows your organization's name.

Keep the giving address permanent

The generator turns a web address into a picture. When someone scans it, their phone opens your donation page, and any gift happens there, through whatever service you already use.

A printed code cannot be edited, so the page address has to stay permanent. Use an address you control and keep it live. If you switch giving services later, point the same address at the new page so old flyers keep working. A short, tidy link also makes a simpler, easier-to-scan code.

Help people trust what they scan

Anyone giving money wants to know they have landed in the right place. Print your organization's name and a plain-text web address next to the code. Ask people to check that the name and address on the page match before they enter any details, and to close the page if something looks different.

Codes on public posters are sometimes covered by someone else's sticker. Look over your posted signs every so often, and print on a sturdy sign you can spot-check rather than a loose sheet.

Where to place it

Pair the code with one line saying what a gift does, such as "Scan to give to our winter meal fund". Always offer another way to give, like a person to ask or a mailing address, for people who prefer not to scan.

Frequently asked questions

Does this QR code generator process donations?

No. The code only opens the donation page; this tool never handles money. Every gift is made on the page that opens, through whatever donation service you already use, and that service sets its own terms and fees.

Can I link to a donation page from any giving service?

Yes, any public giving page with its own web address works. Copy the link from the page you already use, then open it on a phone that is signed out of your account to confirm donors can reach it without a login.

How can donors tell the QR code is safe to scan?

Print your organization's name and web address beside the code, and ask people to confirm the page that opens shows the same name and address before they enter anything. If it looks off, they should close it and visit your website directly.

Can I use one QR code for several campaigns?

It is simpler to give each campaign its own code and page, so a gift lands in the right fund. If you want one code, link to a page where donors choose the campaign, and keep the choices few so the page stays easy to use on a phone.
