URL Encoder / Decoder
Percent-encode and decode URLs and query parameters safely for use in links.
URL Encoder converts text into percent-encoded form so it can travel safely through URLs and query strings, and reverses the process to make encoded URLs human-readable again. It uses the standard URI component encoding rules, the same algorithm browsers and servers use, so the output round-trips cleanly with every backend, every routing library, and every HTTP client. You will reach for this tool whenever you need to embed a search term, an email address, a redirect target, a tracking parameter, or arbitrary user input into a URL. Encoding ensures characters like spaces, ampersands, plus signs, slashes, and emoji do not break the structure of the link. Decoding lets you read referrer URLs, OAuth callback URIs, and tracked links pulled from analytics dashboards as the human-readable strings they actually represent. Marketers use it to build UTM-tracked share links, paste partner URLs into ad creatives, and inspect campaign URLs from third-party platforms. Developers use it to build redirect URIs for OAuth flows, debug deep links on mobile, prep query strings for fetch calls, and clean up URLs grabbed from server logs.

Frequently asked questions
Is the URL Encoder free?
Yes, completely free with no signup.
What does URL encoding do?
It converts characters like spaces, ampersands, and slashes into percent-encoded equivalents so they can travel safely in URLs without breaking the link structure.
What is the difference between URL encoding and Base64?
URL encoding makes individual characters safe for use in URLs. Base64 encodes binary data into text for transmission. They solve different problems.
