Round QR code generator

Make a QR code that looks like part of your brand: circular eyes, dotted or rounded modules, your colors and a small center glyph. Download it as a crisp SVG.

Dots, rounded and classy modules

Swap square blocks for dots or rounded shapes that fit a designed layout.

Circular eyes

Restyle the three finder patterns as circles for a genuinely round look.

Still scans reliably

Raised error correction keeps a styled code scanning as well as the plain one.

Can QR codes be round?

Yes. The three corner finder patterns tell a scanner where the code is; the rest is data. You can round the data modules and restyle the corners as long as contrast stays high and the quiet zone is clear.

  • Dark modules on a light background
  • Keep the outer margin clear of other design elements
  • Raise error correction before adding a logo

What breaks a custom code

Low contrast and oversized logos are the usual culprits. Keep any center image small and never hide a finder pattern, and test the result on two phones before printing.

Round codes in context

Round styling shines where the code sits inside a designed layout: a coaster, a badge, a sticker on a curved surface. It also suits codes placed over photography, where a square block would look pasted on.

  • Coasters, badges and stickers
  • Codes over images or gradients
  • Brand palettes where a black square clashes

Frequently asked questions

Do round QR codes still scan?
Yes, if the contrast is strong and the finder patterns stay clear. Higher error correction makes custom styling more robust.
Can I make a circular QR code with a logo?
Yes. Use a small logo and a higher error-correction level so covered modules can be reconstructed.
Can I download the round code as a file?
Yes — export a vector SVG, which stays sharp at any print size.
Do round codes work with a logo in the middle?
Yes, with a small glyph and raised error correction. The same size limits apply as for any styled code.
Are round codes harder to scan at small sizes?
Slightly. Rounding reduces contrast at the module edges, so keep the print generous.
