Image to Base64 Converter

About This Tool

So you’ve got an image and need it as a Base64 string? Yeah, happens to the best of us. Maybe you’re embedding it directly into HTML or CSS, or you’re sending it through an API that doesn’t like file uploads. Whatever the reason, this converter gets the job done—no fluff, no signups, no nonsense.

Just drag and drop your image, click convert, and boom—you’ve got your Base64 string ready to copy. It’s that simple. Works right in your browser, so nothing gets uploaded or stored. Your image stays on your machine. Privacy? Check.

Key Features

• Supports common formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP.
• No file size limits (within reason—your browser might choke on a 50MB PNG, but that’s on you).
• Instant conversion—no waiting, no spinning wheels.
• Copy to clipboard with one click. Because who wants to manually select that long string?
• Works offline once loaded. Refresh the page, and it still works. Handy if you’re in a spotty connection zone.
• No tracking, no ads, no “premium” version. Just a tool that does one thing well.

FAQ

Why would I even need Base64 for an image?
Honestly, most of the time you don’t. But sometimes you do—like when you’re injecting an image into a stylesheet, email template, or a JSON payload. Base64 lets you embed the image data directly as text, so you don’t need a separate file or URL. It’s a bit bulky, but it gets the job done when you’re stuck with text-only systems.

Is it safe to use?
Yep. The whole process runs in your browser. Nothing leaves your computer. No server sees your image. So unless you’re converting something super sensitive and then pasting it into a public chat, you’re good. Just don’t go sharing the output string if it’s private.
