Frequently asked questions
How does a WhatsApp QR code work?
The QR code contains your WhatsApp link, which starts with wa.me. When the code is scanned with a phone camera, WhatsApp opens and a chat with your number begins.
Does the QR code expire?
No. The code contains your number and message directly. It isn't tied to a server, so it keeps working as long as your number stays the same.
Which format should I choose for print?
SVG is a vector format: it stays sharp at any size, which makes it ideal for printing. PNG is fine for screens and social media.
Does the QR code cost anything or require sign-up?
No. The tool is free and doesn't require sign-up; your number is processed in your browser and isn't sent anywhere.
