Encode or decode URL text for safe links and query strings.
About URL Encoder & Decoder
URL Encoder & Decoder is a free developer tool for preparing URL text and reading encoded URL values. Use encode mode when a query parameter, redirect URL, search term, path value or special character needs to be safely placed inside a link. Use decode mode when you want to turn encoded sequences such as %20 back into readable text. This is useful while working with APIs, tracking links, redirects, form submissions, analytics URLs, campaign parameters and debugging browser requests. The tool keeps both operations in one page so you can switch between encoding and decoding without opening separate utilities. Output appears in a clear copyable field with a small summary of operation type and character counts. Developers, marketers, QA testers and students can use it to quickly understand or prepare URL strings. The interface follows Toolexa’s responsive tool layout, includes copy and clear controls, and avoids unnecessary distractions so you can finish the conversion and continue with your task.
