WhatsApp QR Code FAQs

How to use WhatsApp scan-to-chat codes for marketing and customer service.

Do scanners need my phone number saved?

No, they do not need to save your contact info first. WhatsApp opens a direct secure chat window instantly.

Should I include '+' in the phone number?

No. Use digits only (e.g., '1234567890' where 1 is the country code). Omit any spaces, parentheses, or '+' characters.

Can I use this for WhatsApp Business?

Yes, this works seamlessly for both personal WhatsApp accounts and official WhatsApp Business accounts.

Is the custom message mandatory?

No, it is optional. If left blank, the chat opens with an empty input field.
