JWT Decoder

Decode and inspect JWT tokens

What is a JWT?

A JSON Web Token (JWT) is a compact, URL-safe token used to securely transmit information between parties. It consists of three Base64URL-encoded parts: header, payload, and signature.

JWT structure

header.payload.signature — The header contains the token type and algorithm. The payload contains claims (user data). The signature verifies the token hasn't been tampered with.

All decoding happens in your browser. No token data is sent to any server.
