Why use our base64 encode – encode text to base64?
Base64 is everywhere: API tokens, image data URIs, email attachments and config values. This encoder converts any Unicode text to Base64 correctly, handling multi-byte characters that naive btoa-based tools mangle. The result is copy-ready for Authorization headers, environment variables and data URIs. Encoding happens locally in your browser, so sensitive values never leave your machine.
Encrypting-readable text into a transport-safe string
Base64 turns binary or plain text into an ASCII-safe string that survives emails, JSON fields and URLs without breaking. Here is a secret from an environment file before and after encoding with this page.
