About the WhatsApp QR Code
Many customers would rather message a business on WhatsApp than call or email. A WhatsApp QR code opens a chat with your number straight away, without them saving you as a contact first, and can pre-fill the first message. This tool builds a wa.me click-to-chat link from your number and turns it into a code in your browser.
What you can do
- Enter your full international WhatsApp number; anything that is not a digit is removed.
- Add an optional opening message, such as "Hi, I would like to order".
- Customise colours and error correction.
- Grab it as a PNG for chats and social posts, or as an SVG for signs.
When it works best
- Small shops and home businesses that take orders by chat.
- Restaurant tables for reservations, takeaway orders or feedback.
- Property, car and classified listings where buyers ask questions.
Things to know
- The wa.me link is created in your browser and is not logged by us.
- Use the country code without a plus or leading zeros, for example 447700900123 for a UK mobile.
- The number must have a WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business account, or the chat will not open.
- Without WhatsApp installed, the person sees a web page asking them to install it. For a regular text, use SMS QR Code.
