Base64
Paste text: get Base64, or the other way round.
What the tool does
Turns text into Base64 (letters and digits for safe transfer) and back. Any language works.
How to use it
- Choose "Encode" or "Decode".
- Paste your text.
- Copy the result.
Good to know
- Base64 is not encryption: anyone can decode such a string.
- Decoding also accepts the form with - and _ instead of + and /.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I use it as a cipher?
- No, Base64 only packs data and protects nothing.
- Why "not Base64"?
- The string has characters that should not be there, or it is damaged.
