WhatsApp QR Code Generator
Create a QR code that opens a WhatsApp chat with your business — scan, tap, chatting. Print it on menus, receipts, packaging, business cards, or your shop window.
Digits only — country code first, no +, spaces, or dashes.
Runs 100% in your browser — the number and message are never sent to our servers.

- 3Download the PNG and place it anywhere customers can scan.
How do WhatsApp QR codes work?
The QR code encodes a wa.me link. When a customer scans it with their phone camera, WhatsApp opens a chat with your number — with your pre-filled message ready to send. It never expires, and you can reprint it anywhere.
WhatsApp QR code questions
Does the WhatsApp QR code expire?+
No. The code encodes a permanent wa.me link, so it works as long as the WhatsApp number is active — print it once, use it for years.
What size should I print it?+
As a rule of thumb, print at least 2×2 cm for arm's-length scans (menus, cards) and larger for posters. The downloaded PNG is high-resolution and scales cleanly.
Can I use one QR code for my whole team?+
The code opens one number. To let a whole team answer that number without sharing phones, connect it to a shared inbox like WABPO's — every scan lands in one queue with assignment and history.
Is this generator really free?+
Yes — free, no signup, no watermark, and the code is generated in your browser. Your number never touches our servers.
