Base64 Encoder

Prepared by: Gsetsoft · Updated:

Email attachments and API bodies use Base64 to carry binary content as text. This tool converts your text into a Base64 string entirely in your browser. Do not encode real passwords; practice with samples first.

Step by step

  1. Prepare the short text to encode.
  2. Paste it into the input field.
  3. Click Encode and wait for the output.
  4. Copy the output into your target field.
  5. Decode it back to confirm no loss if needed.

Example scenario

Encoding Hello gives a string like SGVsbG8sIFV0aWdvIQ==. It travels safely inside a test API request. Everything runs in the browser; use sample sentences for trials.

Check your result

Verify the string holds only letters, digits, plus, slash and equals. Compare by decoding. If an API rejects it, confirm UTF-8 input.
