Frequently asked questions

How do I make a QR code for WhatsApp?

Enter your WhatsApp number with its country code, add an optional message, and download the QR code. When scanned, it opens a chat with your number.

Does a WhatsApp QR code expire?

No. These QR codes contain a standard wa.me link, so they keep working as long as the number is on WhatsApp.

Can the QR code include a pre-filled message?

Yes. Anything you type in the message box is included, and appears ready to send when the customer scans it.

Should I download PNG or SVG?

PNG is best for websites and social media. SVG is a vector file that stays sharp at any size, so it is better for printing.

Is this WhatsApp QR code generator free?

Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser.
