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.

How to make one, step by step

  1. Step 1

    Pick WhatsApp in the type grid.

  2. Step 2

    Fill in the fields — the preview updates as you type.

  3. Step 3

    Style the dots, colours, frame and logo.

  4. Step 4

    Download as PNG, SVG, PDF, JPEG or WEBP.

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.
