    A WhatsApp QR code lets anyone start a chat with you by scanning it, with no number to type or save.

    Where to use them

    • Shop counters and billing desks.
    • Restaurant tables and takeaway bags.
    • Product packaging and labels.
    • Delivery vehicles and shop signboards.
    • Flyers, brochures and newspaper ads.
    • Exhibition stalls.
    • Visiting cards and invoices.

    Pre-fill the message

    Set a pre-filled message such as “Hi, I want to join your offers list” or “Hi, I want to book a table”. Create the code with our WhatsApp QR code generator.

    Give a reason to scan

    “Scan to get today’s menu”, “Scan for 10% off your next visit” or “Scan for instant price list” works better than a bare code.

    Print-ready posters

    Make a counter poster with our WhatsApp opt-in poster maker.

    Different codes for different places

    Use different pre-filled messages per location to see which placement works best.
