Hoe te gebruiken

  1. Open Base64 tool — Open the encode/decode page.
  2. Paste text — Paste plain text or Base64 into the input.
  3. Encode or decode — Run encode or decode. Confirm standard vs URL-safe alphabet if needed.
  4. Copy output — Copy the result for APIs, data URLs, or debugging.

Beperkingen

Encoding is reversible and not secret. Invalid padding or alphabet mismatches cause errors.

When to use

Embed small binaries in text protocols or inspect data URLs—without uploading secrets.

When not to use

When you need encryption, hashing for passwords, or streaming huge files.

Privacy note

All encode/decode steps stay on-device.

FAQ(5)

Is Base64 encryption?

No. Base64 is encoding for binary-safe text (see RFC 4648). Anyone can decode it—do not treat it as secrecy.

Why do I see “Invalid Base64”?

Check padding (=), remove spaces/newlines, and confirm the alphabet (standard vs URL-safe).

Does Unicode text encode correctly?

Yes. Text is handled as UTF-8 before encoding and after decoding.

Is data sent to your servers?

Never. Encode/decode stays on your device.

When should I use Base64?

Embedding small binaries in JSON/HTML, data URLs, or protocols that only accept text—not for protecting secrets.
