Create Your Event BadgeAbout Event Badge QR Codes
An event badge with a QR code turns a simple name tag into a networking tool. Instead of exchanging paper business cards that get lost, attendees scan each other's badge QR codes to instantly save contact information, connect on LinkedIn, or visit a digital profile. It works with any phone camera -- no special app required.
Conference organizers, trade show exhibitors, meetup hosts, and corporate event planners all benefit from QR-enabled badges. They streamline check-in, reduce paper waste from unused business cards, and give attendees a memorable, modern experience. The QR code can link to anything: a LinkedIn profile, a vCard with full contact details, an event-specific networking page, or a company landing page.
This generator creates a print-ready PDF at standard conference badge size (4 x 3 inches). Add the event name, attendee details, and a QR code linking to their profile or contact info. The entire process runs in your browser with no data uploaded to any server. It is completely free, requires no account, and produces professional badges ready for any lanyard or badge holder.
How It Works
- Select the Event Badge template and enter a URL or vCard data for the QR code.
- Add the event name, attendee name, and optional title or company.
- Customize colors, fonts, and QR code style to match your event branding.
- Download the print-ready PDF, cut to size, and insert into badge holders.
Printing Tips
- Print on white cardstock (80-100 lb) for a sturdy badge that holds up throughout a multi-day event.
- Standard badge size (4 x 3 inches) fits most conference badge holders and lanyards.
- For a polished look, use a paper cutter rather than scissors for clean edges along the crop marks.
- Print a test badge first and scan the QR code to verify it links correctly before printing the full batch.
