WhatsApp has over 2 billion users worldwide, making it one of the easiest ways for customers to reach your business. A WhatsApp QR code lets anyone start a conversation with you by simply scanning — no need to save your number first.
How does a WhatsApp QR code work?
When scanned, the QR code opens WhatsApp with your phone number pre-loaded, and optionally with a pre-filled message. The user simply taps "Send" and the conversation begins. It uses the wa.me link format, which works on both mobile and desktop.
Create your WhatsApp QR code
- Go to Qrafy's QR generator and click the WhatsApp tab.
- Enter your phone number with country code (e.g., +91 for India, +1 for USA).
- Optionally add a pre-filled message like "Hi! I am interested in your services."
- Click "Generate QR Code" and download.
Where to use your WhatsApp QR code
- Business cards: Let prospects message you instantly
- Product packaging: "Need help? Scan to WhatsApp us"
- Storefront: Display for walk-in customers to reach you after hours
- Social media: Share the QR code in your posts or stories
- Email signatures: Add it as an image for easy mobile contact

Tips for success
- Use a business number: Keep your personal and business WhatsApp separate.
- Set a pre-filled message: This gives context to the conversation and makes it easier for the customer to start chatting.
- Include country code: Always include the full international dialing code without the leading zero.
- Add a call-to-action: "Scan to chat" or "Message us on WhatsApp" next to the QR code.
