Open FAQPHP Code Protection
Obfuscate pure PHP or mixed PHP and HTML files online with three protection profiles built for packed delivery workflows.

A PHP obfuscator transforms readable PHP into harder-to-read packed code so business logic is more difficult to inspect, copy, or casually modify. This tool is built for real-world PHP files, including template-style files that mix PHP with HTML markup.
Many online obfuscators break when a file contains raw HTML blocks, shorthand echo tags, or alternating open and close PHP tags. Obfuscator.tools compiles those inputs into executable PHP before packing them, which makes the output more stable for mixed-file projects.
