Common questions

How does the QR open a chat?

The code holds a wa.me link with your number. When someone scans it, WhatsApp opens with a new chat to you ready to go — no saving a contact, no typing digits. It works for personal and business accounts alike, on any phone.

Does it need a special instance or 'WaMe' code?

No — the wa.me link form works for any WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business user with no extra account and no setup. If you can receive WhatsApp messages at a number, you can put that number behind a QR code today.

Does it work on desktop?

Scanning on a phone opens the WhatsApp app with your chat ready. Opening the same link in a desktop browser starts the chat in WhatsApp Web or Desktop instead — handy for receipts and invoices read on a computer screen.

Can I pre-fill a message?

Yes. Add ?text=Your+message to the end of the wa.me link and the chat opens with that text typed and ready to send. Use it for orders — pre-fill the item name — or for bookings with the date already in place.

Do I need WhatsApp Business?

No — personal WhatsApp works too. WhatsApp Business only adds extras like quick replies, labels, and catalogs for high-volume sellers. Start free and upgrade when the extras earn their keep. Start with the free personal account; move to Business when message volume makes the extras worth it.

What if I change my number?

Create a new QR with the new number and swap every printed copy — menus, receipts, windows, vans. Old codes keep opening chats to the old number, so collect the old printouts the same day you switch. Tell regulars directly so no message lands in the wrong inbox.

Is it safe to scan a QR code?

Yes — if you check the preview first. Your phone shows the link before opening it. If the address looks wrong, close it. Our codes are static: they hold only text, run nothing, and phone nothing home. The risk never comes from the square itself. It comes from a bad link hiding inside it.

Can a QR code give my phone a virus?

No. A QR code is a picture of text. It cannot run programs or install apps by itself. The worst it can do is open a bad web page — and your phone shows you that address first. Read the preview, skip odd links, and scanning stays safe.

Are free QR code generators safe to use?

Ours is. Everything runs in your browser: your link never leaves your device, nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored. Many free tools upload your data or demand an email first. Ask two questions before any generator: does it need an account, and does my data leave my phone?

What are QR code phishing scams?

Fake codes that point at lookalike login pages to steal passwords. They hide on posters, parking meters, and emails. Defense is simple: read the preview address before tapping, and type important addresses by hand. Our static codes cannot redirect or change after printing, so what you check is what you get.

Do QR codes track me?

Ours cannot. Static codes carry no server, so there is nothing to phone home and nothing to count. Paid dynamic codes are different: they route through a server that logs every scan — city, device, time. If nobody should know you scanned, use a static code from a tool that asks for nothing.

Do QR codes expire?

Ours never do. A static code stores the data inside the pattern itself, so no server exists that could switch it off. Print it on a menu or a van and it scans in ten years. Codes that stop working are dynamic ones whose subscription lapsed — a calendar problem, not a code problem.
