Is this WhatsApp QR code free to generate?

Yes. The generator is free with no signup, no watermark, and no expiry, and it exports both PNG and SVG. The QR is built in your browser, nothing is uploaded, so the file you download is yours to print as many times as you like.

Does it work with WhatsApp Business?

Yes. The QR points to a wa.me link, which opens whichever WhatsApp app the customer has installed, personal or Business. For shops, salons, and clinics, link it to your WhatsApp Business number so scanners see your catalogue, hours, and away message.

Will my real phone number be visible to whoever scans?

Yes. When the chat opens, the scanner sees the number the QR points to. If you do not want strangers to have your personal number (for example on a street-visible sticker or a lost-and-found tag), use a QRSprint Smart Tag, which routes the chat through a masked relay number instead.

Can I pre-fill the first message the customer sends?

Yes, type it in the Pre-filled message box above. Good examples for India: 'Hi, share today's menu and prices', 'I scanned your card and want to connect', or 'Question about order number'. The text appears typed and ready, the customer just taps Send.

Do I need to include the country code?

For Indian numbers, type just the 10 digits and we add 91 automatically. For numbers in other countries, enter the full number including the country code (without the plus sign or any leading zeros), for example 9714xxxxxxx for the UAE.

Can I change the number or message after printing?

No, a static QR fixes the link at generation time. If you switch your business number or want to edit the pre-filled message later without reprinting, use a Dynamic QR on the Pro plan, which lets you change where the printed code points from your dashboard.

Does the customer need WhatsApp already installed?

Yes, the link opens the WhatsApp app. Almost every smartphone user in India already has it, so this is rarely an issue. If they somehow do not, the wa.me link opens WhatsApp Web or prompts them to install it first.

Where do businesses usually place a WhatsApp QR?

On visiting cards, restaurant menus and tables (for reservations and feedback), product packaging (support and warranty), checkout review-request cards, invoices, and outdoor signage. A direct WhatsApp tap converts far better than printing a phone number people have to save and dial.

What is a WhatsApp QR code?

A WhatsApp QR code encodes a wa.me/<phone> link. When anyone scans the QR with their camera or a QR app, WhatsApp opens directly to a chat with your number, with an optional message already typed. The customer taps Send and the message reaches you. They never had to save your number, never typed anything, and the friction of starting a conversation drops to one tap.

QRSprint generates the QR client-side in your browser. No data is uploaded, no account is required, and the PNG you download is yours forever, with no expiry.

How to create one in 30 seconds

Type your 10-digit Indian phone in the field above. Add a pre-filled message that fits your use case: "Hi, I want to know your menu prices", "I scanned your business card and want to connect", or "I have a question about my order #". The QR preview updates live. Click Download for the PNG. Print it on a card, sticker, packaging, receipt, or signboard. Anyone with a smartphone can scan it.

WhatsApp Business vs personal, which to use

Both work. A personal WhatsApp account opens the chat as if a friend had messaged. A WhatsApp Business account shows your business profile, catalogue, hours, and away message. For shops, restaurants, salons, and service businesses, WhatsApp Business is the better choice. It also lets you label incoming chats (lead, customer, complaint) and use quick replies. You do not need to generate a different QR for Business, the same wa.me link works for both.

Where to use a WhatsApp QR

On business cards so contacts can chat without saving your number. On restaurant menus to collect reservation requests or table feedback. On product packaging for support and warranty queries. On Google review request cards (printed at checkout) routed to a pre-filled "How was your experience" message. On invoices and receipts to make follow-up easy. On posters, brochures, and outdoor signage where a direct WhatsApp tap beats a phone number every time. For multi-location businesses, our Bulk generator lets you produce one QR per outlet from a CSV.

Privacy, your real number is visible

A direct WhatsApp QR shows the scanner your real phone number when the chat opens. If you do not want that, use a QRSprint Smart Tag. Smart Tag scans route through a masked WhatsApp relay number, so the scanner contacts you without ever seeing your real digits. The reply also comes back through the relay. Good for street-visible stickers, lost-and-found tags, and any case where you do not want strangers to dial you direct.
