WhatsApp QR Code Generator

A QR code works best where people have a question and their phone in hand.

• Shop window. Passers-by can ask about prices, stock or opening hours even when you’re closed.

• Counter and checkout. Customers can scan it to order again later, ask about delivery or get updates.

• Packaging and delivery boxes. A quick way to reorder, ask a question about the product or report a problem.

• Menus and table cards. For bookings, takeaway orders or event enquiries.

• Flyers and posters. Add one line about what to message you for, such as “Scan to book a free consultation”.

• Business cards. One scan starts a chat, without typing your number.

A few tips that make it work:

• Say what happens after the scan: “Scan to chat on WhatsApp”.

• Print it large enough to scan from where people stand, with a plain light margin around it.

• Scan the printed proof with a couple of phones before you print the full run.

• Answer quickly during the hours you show next to the code.

The pre-filled message is the text that appears in the customer’s chat box after they scan. They can edit it before sending. A good one is short, written from the customer’s side and tells you where they came from.

Tip: use a slightly different message for each place, like “I saw your flyer” or “I scanned the code on my order”, and you’ll know which QR code brings in chats.
