A real, scannable example
What the code contains
A WhatsApp QR code is encoded as a wa.me link. Scanning the example above produces exactly this:
https://wa.me/15550109999?text=Hi!%20I%20saw%20your%20poster.Getting a WhatsApp code right
- The number must be in full international format with no leading zeros or plus sign.
- If WhatsApp is not installed the link opens the web version instead of failing.
- This is a normal link, so it works from any scanner — no WhatsApp-specific app needed.

Questions
- Is this WhatsApp QR code generator free?
- Yes — unlimited codes, no account, no watermark and no expiry. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
- What format does a WhatsApp QR code use?
- It is encoded as a wa.me link, which is the format phone cameras and scanner apps already understand — no intermediate redirect service is involved.
- Will the code stop working later?
- No. The content is encoded directly into the pattern, so there is no server or short link that could go away. A printed code keeps working indefinitely.
