FAQ

Q. Is this image to Base64 converter completely free?

A. Yes! Unlimited conversions with no sign-up, watermarks, or usage limits. 100% free forever.

Q. Are my images uploaded to any server?

A. Never. All Base64 encoding happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your device.

Q. What's the difference between Data URI and Base64?

A. Data URI includes the MIME type prefix (data:image/png;base64,...) and works directly in img src or CSS url(). Raw Base64 is just the encoded string without the prefix.
