Circular QR Code Generator
Make a circular QR code (also called round QR code or circle QR code) where the dots fill the circle. Pick a frame, add your color, and download a free high-res PNG — it scans like any regular QR code.
Make a round QR code
Paste your link, pick a style, and download a circular QR code as a free high-res PNG. The dots fill the circle — and it scans like any regular QR code.
Templates
Scan sounds play in the Qrblox app — save your code there to pick a sound.
🎨 Frame Style
Tints the seals, hexes, label, and glossy button. Safety Seal keeps its green and Coin keeps its gold — those colors are the badge.
Draws an outline around the plain code — a rounded square, or a circle for the Round shape.
Downloads are 1024px PNGs. Saving to Qrblox makes it a dynamic QR — edit the link later and see scan analytics.
Short answer
A circular QR code (also called a round QR code or circle QR code) is a circular take on the classic square code: the data modules are drawn as dots, and a field of decorative dots fills the code out to a perfect circle. Scanners still read it like any QR code, because the three corner “eyes” and the data pattern stay intact behind a built-in quiet zone. In the circular QR code generator above, paste your link, keep the Round shape selected, and download your circular QR code as a free 1024px PNG — no signup, no watermark.
How it works
From a link to a print-ready circular QR code in under a minute.
Step 1
Paste your link into the circular QR code generator — the round QR code preview updates live, with the dots filling out the circle.
Step 2
Pick a template (seal, hex, label, coin, or glossy button) and a frame color to match your brand or product.
Step 3
Download the high-res PNG for free — or save it to Qrblox to make it dynamic, editable, and trackable.
Why make your QR code circular?
Square codes read as “technical”. Circular / round codes read as “designed” — and they earn more scans because of it.
Dots that fill the circle
Not a square code pasted on a circle — the dot pattern itself flows to the circular edge with a slim gradient rim. This is a true circular QR code, not a square code inside a round frame. It looks designed, because it is.
Still scans like a QR code
The corner eyes, data modules, and quiet zone all stay intact, so every standard camera app reads a circular QR code or circle QR code the same as a square one — the circular styling never touches the code itself.

Where circular QR codes shine
Product packaging & labels
A circular QR code sits naturally on jar lids, candle tins, bottle caps, and circular labels — no awkward square corners like a square code.
Stickers & seals
Print it as a circular sticker: the built-in rim ring makes the cut line obvious and the circle QR code pops on any background.
Weddings & events
Link guests to photo albums, RSVPs, or playlists with a circular QR code that looks like part of the invitation, not an afterthought.
Business cards & hang tags
The coin, seal, and glossy button frames turn your link into a circular QR code design element people actually want to scan.

Circular QR codes — FAQs
Do circular QR codes actually scan?
Yes. Circular QR codes (round / circle QR codes) scan the same as square ones. The three corner finder “eyes”, the data dots, and a white quiet zone are all preserved — that is everything a scanner needs. The decorative dots that fill out the circle sit outside the quiet zone, so cameras ignore them. Test it right in the preview with your phone.
What is the difference between circular, round, and circle QR codes?
Nothing — they are the same thing. “Circular QR code”, “round QR code”, and “circle QR code” are all synonyms for a QR code whose dot pattern fills a circle instead of a square. Qrblox supports all three terms and the same generator makes them.
Is this circular QR code generator free?
Yes. Create and download circular QR codes as 1024px PNGs for free, with no signup and no watermark. Saving a dynamic, trackable version uses the free Qrblox account.
Can I use circular QR codes commercially?
Absolutely — put your circular QR codes on products, packaging, stickers, menus, signage, or anything you sell. The codes you download are yours.
Will a circular QR code still scan after printing?
Yes, if you keep it big enough and high-contrast. Print a circular QR code at least 2 × 2 cm (about 0.8 in) for close-range scanning, keep the dark-dots-on-white style, and avoid stretching the circle into an oval.
Can I add a logo to a circular QR code?
The templates here keep the code maximally scannable, so they do not overlay a logo on the data area. If you need a logo, use the Product Label template footer text or place your mark just outside the quiet zone. Saved dynamic codes can also add boost frames in the Qrblox app.
Can I download a circular QR code as SVG or vector?
The free download is a print-ready 1024px PNG with a transparent option via the border settings. For true vector (SVG/EPS) for press or foil stamping, save the code to Qrblox and export from the dashboard — the circular artwork scales without pixelation.
What is the smallest size for a circular QR code?
For a link to a short URL: about 2 cm diameter (0.8 in) at close range, 3–4 cm for shelf labels and stickers viewed at arm’s length. Keep contrast high (dark dots on white) and never reduce the quiet zone.
Can I change the link after I print a circular QR code?
Only if you save it as a dynamic code. Tap “Save & track on web” to store your circular QR code in Qrblox — then you can re-point the same printed code to a new URL any time and see scan analytics.
Can I make circular QR codes on my phone?
Yes — the Qrblox iPhone app has the same Round shape for circular QR codes, all of these templates, plus extras like scan sounds, boost frames, and reward badges. It is free on the App Store.
