Looking for a quick and easy way to encode or decode URLs? Our free URL Encoder/Decoder tool helps you convert special characters in a URL into a standard format that's browser-safe — and decode them back just as effortlessly.
Whether you're a developer, SEO expert, or digital marketer, this tool is your go-to solution for safe and accurate URL formatting.
When data is transferred over the internet via URLs, certain characters (like spaces, &, %, /) must be encoded to maintain proper transmission. URL encoding (also known as percent encoding) replaces these characters with % followed by a two-digit hexadecimal value.
For example:
: becomes %3A
/ becomes %2F
Space becomes %20
URL decoding, on the other hand, reverses this process—turning encoded characters back into readable text.
Just paste your URL or string into the box, hit “Encode” or “Decode,” and get instant results.
No downloads, no logins—our tool is web-based and free for unlimited use.
We ensure full compliance with UTF-8 encoding standards, making this tool suitable for all types of web applications.
