WhatsApp QR Code Generator
Create a free WhatsApp QR code that opens a chat with you - optionally with a pre-filled first message. Static and permanent, no signup. Add a logo and frame, then download PNG or SVG for flyers, windows, and cards.
What Is a WhatsApp QR Code?
A WhatsApp QR code opens a chat with you the instant someone scans it - no saving your number, no typing it into the app first. It uses WhatsApp's official click-to-chat link (wa.me), so scanning pops open a conversation addressed to your number, optionally with a message already typed. It is the quickest way to turn a flyer, shop window, or business card into a direct line to your WhatsApp.
To build one, create your click-to-chat link: wa.me/ followed by your number in full international format (country code + number, digits only, no plus, spaces, or dashes) - for example wa.me/14155552671. Paste that link above and this generator encodes it as a static QR code. Want the chat to start with context? Add ?text= and your message to the link (wa.me/14155552671?text=Hi). The code is permanent and free - the link lives in the pattern, no subscription, no expiry. Add a logo and a 'Chat on WhatsApp' frame, then download as PNG or SVG.
How to Build Your wa.me Link
Paste a wa.me link into the field above. Here is how to form it.
| You want | Link format | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Open a chat | wa.me/<number> | wa.me/14155552671 |
| Chat with a message | wa.me/<number>?text=<message> | wa.me/14155552671?text=Hi%20there |
| Number format | Country code + number, digits only | No +, spaces, or dashes |
