Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding format that converts files and binary data into ASCII characters so it can be safely transmitted through text-based systems.
Simply drag and drop a file or upload one from your device. The file is converted to Base64 instantly and the result can be copied with one click.
Base64 encoded files are commonly used in APIs, JSON data, email attachments, and data URLs when embedding images or other binary data in HTML or CSS.
Because Base64 uses printable ASCII characters, it allows binary data to be safely transported through systems that only support text.
Base64 encoding converts binary files into a text representation using 64 ASCII characters so the data can be transmitted safely through text-based systems.
Any file can be encoded to Base64, including images, PDFs, documents, and other binary files.
