URL Encoder/Decoder

What is a URL Encoder/Decoder?

A URL Encoder/Decoder converts characters that are unsafe or change meaning in URLs into a safe form, and reverses the conversion. Encoding replaces spaces, Turkish letters, quotes and special marks with percent notation (%20, %C3%A7); decoding turns them back into readable text.

When is URL encoding needed?

• Search parameters: adding search phrases with spaces or Turkish characters to a query string.
• Form data: safely placing user text into GET requests.
• Sharing links: preventing & and + from being misinterpreted inside URLs.
• Code snippets: passing JSON, HTML or script content as a URL parameter.

How are Turkish characters handled?

The tool encodes text as UTF-8, so ç, ğ, ı, ö, ş, ü and emojis become percent sequences like %C3%BC without corruption, and decoding restores full Turkish letters. Space-to-plus differences are handled automatically.

What encoding does it use?

It uses encodeURIComponent, the recommended comprehensive encoding for parameter values. Every character except A–Z, a–z, 0–9 and a few marks becomes percent notation, so browsers and servers always read your parameters identically.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Encoding and decoding happen entirely in your browser; inputs are never sent or stored. No signup, no install and completely free.
