What is a WhatsApp QR Code?
A WhatsApp QR code is a QR code that opens a WhatsApp chat with a specific phone number, optionally with a pre-written message.
A WhatsApp QR code stores a wa.me click-to-chat link for your phone number and an optional message. When a person scans it, WhatsApp can open the correct chat. The person can review the message before they send it. Use this code for customer questions, order requests, and appointment bookings with a regular or WhatsApp Business number.
When to Use a WhatsApp QR Code
- Customer support contact on websites and packaging
- Order and reservation requests for restaurants and shops
- Lead capture on trade show banners
- Appointment booking for clinics, salons, and services
