WhatsApp QR code generator

Type your number and a starting message, and get a QR code that opens a WhatsApp chat with you. Download it as PNG or SVG.

Start with the country code: 1 for the US and Canada, 44 for the UK, 55 for Brazil.

Your QR code

SVG stays sharp at any size, so use it for print. PNG is for posts and messages.

Everything here runs in your browser. What you type isn't sent to BetterZap or anyone else.

Where a WhatsApp QR code helps

Anywhere people see you in person: a shop counter, a menu, a flyer, a business card or a car window. They point their phone camera at it and land in a chat with you, with your message already typed.

The code holds the same wa.me link as our link generator, so it works with any WhatsApp number, personal or Business.

How to use it

  1. Type the number with its country code, and a starting message if you want one.
  2. Pick a colour if you like. Dark colours on white scan best.
  3. Download SVG for print, since it stays sharp at any size, or PNG for posts and messages.
  4. Scan it with your own phone before printing many copies.

Questions

Does the QR code expire?

No. It holds the link itself, not a redirect through our site, so it keeps working for as long as the number has WhatsApp.

How big should I print it?

At least 2 cm, or about an inch, on each side, and bigger if people will scan it from far away. Leave the white border around it.

Why is the code denser with a long message?

The message is inside the code, so more text means more squares. A short message keeps it easy to scan.

Can I add my logo in the middle?

Not here. A logo covers part of the code, so it needs care to stay readable, and a plain code is the safest choice for print.
