Paste a YouTube link, channel URL, or @handle. We auto-detect the type and produce a QR that opens the YouTube app on scan.
How YouTube QR works
Stick on flyers, product packaging, or business cards. Phone scanners open the YouTube app; desktop scanners open in a browser tab. Used by Indian creators for subscribe campaigns, brand films, tutorials, and Shorts.
Track every scan by device, city, and time. Change the destination after printing. Get the app to unlock.
Save a style (colors, dot and eye style, logo) and reuse it on any QR.
Adds the caption beside (horizontal) or below (vertical) the QR. Use "Download card".

Print on flyers and packaging. Scanning opens the video or channel in YouTube.
Channel QR is for long-term subscribe-and-follow campaigns. Use it on packaging, business cards, event banners, end-of-video cards, and any place where you want repeated viewers. Video QR is for a specific piece of content: a tutorial linked from product packaging, a brand film linked from a hoarding, a Shorts campaign linked from social. Pick whichever matches your goal.
Paste any of these formats: full video URL (https://youtube.com/watch?v=...), short URL (https://youtu.be/...), channel URL, or just @yourhandle. The generator auto-detects, normalises, and previews the QR live. Pick a style, download PNG or SVG.
Match the QR to your channel banner or brand. Use red for YouTube-themed merchandise, your brand colour for everything else. Upload your channel logo to the centre (keep it under 25 percent of the QR width). Pick a dot style: classic square, rounded, classy. Test the printed QR from arm's length before going to bulk print.
Stick on product packaging linking to an unboxing or tutorial. On end-of-video screens for cross-promotion to your channel. On event posters and standees. On a t-shirt or hoodie back. On the last page of a printed manual or brochure. In email signatures as a PNG. For volume work (one QR per product line) use our Bulk tool.
Can I link to a specific video timestamp?
Yes. Use the youtu.be link with ?t=seconds (e.g. youtu.be/abc?t=120 starts at 2 minutes).
Will it work for unlisted videos?
Yes. Anyone with the QR can scan and view the unlisted video; the video stays out of YouTube search.
How do I get more subscribers?
Use your channel URL or @handle. Pair with a clear "Scan to subscribe" CTA. Place where viewers are engaged.
Can I use this QR on merchandise?
Yes. Download SVG. Keep at least 2 cm wide for reliable scanning.
Does it work with YouTube Shorts?
Yes. Shorts URLs (youtube.com/shorts/abc) work and the QR opens the Shorts player.
