URL encode and decode online
Encode and decode URLs and query parameters (percent-encoding), and break a URL down into protocol, host, path and parameters.

How it works
Special characters such as spaces, accents, & or ? must be encoded to travel inside a URL. Pick "Component" to encode a parameter value (encodeURIComponent) or "Full URL" to encode a whole address without breaking its separators (encodeURI).
When you paste a URL, the tool also splits it into its parts and lists every query parameter already decoded, ideal for checking campaign links or redirects.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between encodeURI and encodeURIComponent?
encodeURI keeps the characters that structure a URL (: / ? & = #). encodeURIComponent encodes all of them, which is why it is the right choice for a parameter value.
Why do I see %20 or + instead of spaces?
Both represent a space. %20 is the URL standard; + is used by HTML forms (application/x-www-form-urlencoded). The tool decodes both.
