About URL Encoder / Decoder

The URL Encoder / Decoder converts special characters to percent-encoding (for example a space becomes %20) and decodes them back to readable text. It handles both whole URLs and individual query parameter values.

How to use URL Encoder / Decoder

  1. Choose Encode or Decode.
  2. Paste your text or URL into the input box.
  3. Copy the converted result. Toggle “Whole URL mode” to keep :/?&=# intact.

Frequently asked questions

What is URL encoding?

URL encoding (percent-encoding) replaces characters that are not allowed in URLs with a % followed by two hex digits, so the URL stays valid - for example a space becomes %20.

When should I use “Whole URL mode”?

Use whole-URL mode to encode or decode a complete link while keeping structural characters like : / ? & = # intact. Use component mode to encode a single parameter value where every special character must be escaped.
