Payload Playground is a free online toolkit for security testing payload generation. It provides over 32 generators for creating XSS, SQL injection, reverse shell, SSRF, XXE, SSTI, and other payloads used in authorized penetration testing and security research.
Yes. All 83 security tools and 32 generators are completely free — no account needed. We also offer an optional Pro plan ($12/mo) with AI-powered features.
You can generate payloads across many categories including XSS (cross-site scripting), SQL injection, reverse shells, SSRF (server-side request forgery), XXE (XML external entity), SSTI (server-side template injection), CSRF tokens, command injection, path traversal, LDAP injection, and more.
These payloads are intended only for authorized security testing, bug bounty programs, CTF competitions, and educational purposes. Using them against systems without explicit permission is illegal and unethical. Always ensure you have proper authorization before testing.
All tools run 100% client-side in your browser — your payloads and inputs never leave your device. Pro AI features send your payload to our AI service for analysis. All other tools remain 100% client-side with no telemetry collected.
