About this tool
What is Base64 Encoder?
Base64 Encoding converts binary data into ASCII text format, making it safe to transmit through text-based protocols. Our encoder/decoder handles both encoding (text to Base64) and decoding (Base64 to text) instantly.
Base64 is used for embedding images in CSS, transmitting data in JSON, email attachments, and anywhere binary data needs to be represented as text. The encoding increases size by about 33%.
Our tool fully supports Unicode characters including emojis and international text, properly handling UTF-8 encoding.
