How to create a QR code
Include the country code, such as +91, and the number registered with WhatsApp.
Add a product question or booking request, or leave the message empty.
Scan to check the intended number and message before adding the QR to your materials.
Put it to use
Create a WhatsApp chat QR using your phone number and an optional first message. Customers can open a conversation without saving your number, which helps with enquiries, bookings and product questions.
25 ways to share
Choose the right tool for your next QR. Each has its own fields, examples and sharing tips.
Before you share
No. It opens a chat with your number and may prefill your message. The person scanning decides whether to send it.
WhatsApp’s click-to-chat links let people begin a conversation without saving the number first. The number still needs an active WhatsApp account.
WhatsApp’s click-to-chat guideThe number is encoded in a static link, so a changed number requires a new QR image. Your prefilled message can be edited by the person opening the chat.
The number must include its country code, without a leading zero, spaces or brackets, and it must be registered with WhatsApp. A number that only works when dialled locally will fail in a click-to-chat link.
