Where WhatsApp QR Codes Work Best
- Restaurant tables and menus — customers scan to place orders or ask questions
- Storefront windows — capture walk-by traffic even when closed
- Business cards — skip the "save my number" step entirely
- Product packaging — support and reorders one scan away
- Event booths and signage — collect leads without a form
- Vehicle decals — service businesses turn trucks into lead generators
Tips for Print
Keep the code at least 2cm x 2cm (about 0.8in) for reliable scanning. Leave white space around the code. Test the printed version with multiple phones before mass production. Pair the code with a short instruction like "Scan to chat with us on WhatsApp" for people unfamiliar with QR codes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the QR code expire?
No. The code encodes a permanent wa.me link. It works as long as your number is active on WhatsApp.
Can I use this for WhatsApp Business?
Yes. The code works identically for personal and Business accounts.
Is my number stored anywhere?
No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to our servers.
