About us

QuickRefDesk is a free reference site for everyday lookups: ZIP and postal codes, telephone area and country codes, US bank branch locations, nutrition facts, and kitchen and area unit conversions.

Why we built it

These are questions people ask constantly, and the answers are often buried in slow, cluttered pages or locked behind sign-ups. We wanted one fast site where you can find a code, filter a list and get on with your day.

Where the information comes from

We build our pages from open datasets published by public bodies and open-data projects, rather than writing numbers by hand. Each page names its source, and our data sources and methodology page explains what we use and its limits.

Who runs the site

QuickRefDesk is published by Shihan Thissera. You can reach us at hello@quickrefdesk.com or through the contact page.

How we make money

The site is free to use and supported by advertising. Ads are clearly labelled and kept separate from our content. Advertisers do not influence what we publish.
