How to Create a WhatsApp QR Code for Your Business
Help customers start a WhatsApp conversation from a flyer, shop sign, menu or business card with a QR code.
Prepare your WhatsApp number
Use the full international phone number, including country code, without spaces or punctuation in the number field. Check the digits carefully so customers do not land in the wrong chat.
Generate your code
Open the WhatsApp QR Code Generator, enter the number and optionally add a short pre-filled message. The message should be useful and concise, such as asking for a quote or product availability.
Test the complete customer journey
Scan the downloaded code from another phone and confirm that the correct chat opens. Make sure the account is active and that the pre-filled message is appropriate. The customer normally still chooses whether to send the message.
Where to use it
Place the code on business cards, menus, product packaging, receipts, storefront signs and social media graphics. Keep it large enough for the expected scanning distance and include a clear call to action.
Measure results responsibly
If you need to compare campaigns, use different destination links or campaign-specific processes where appropriate. Do not promise that a static QR code itself tracks scans; a normal QR code does not provide scan analytics on its own.
