About this tool

Base64 encodes binary data as text using 64 safe characters — used in data URLs, email attachments, JWTs and API payloads. Naive btoa() breaks on non-Latin text; this tool encodes through UTF-8 first, so Urdu, emoji and CJK all round-trip perfectly. Padding and whitespace are tolerated on decode.

FAQ

Why does atob fail on my Base64?
Usually invalid padding or URL-safe characters (- and _). This decoder accepts whitespace; replace -/_ if needed.
Is Base64 encryption?
No — it is encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode it. Never 'hide' secrets in Base64.
Does it support emojis and Urdu?
Yes — full UTF-8 round-trip encoding.
