What is Image to Base64 Converter?

An Image to Base64 converter allows you to encode image files (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, SVG and more) into a Base64 data URL that can be embedded directly into HTML, CSS, or JSON. Base64 encoding transforms binary image data into text, enabling you to include images inline without needing to host the file separately. This is especially useful for embedding icons, small graphics, email templates, or generating portable JSON payloads. The output includes the correct MIME type (for example, data:image/png;base64,...) so you can paste it instantly into <img>, CSS background-image, or API requests.

How to Use

1

Upload an image file using the image upload input

2

The tool will automatically convert your image into a Base64 data URL

3

Copy the Base64 output using the copy button

4

Paste the output into HTML, CSS, JSON, or wherever you need an inline image

5

Optional: Use the output as a data URL in an <img src='...'> tag or a CSS background property

Common Use Cases

Embed Images in HTML: Insert Base64 images directly into <img src='...'> without separate image files

Inline CSS Backgrounds: Use Base64 in CSS to embed backgrounds and icons

Email Templates: Embed images in HTML emails where external images may be blocked

API Payloads: Send images inside JSON payloads for upload systems or OCR services

Reduce Requests for Icons: Inline small images to reduce HTTP requests and improve performance
