Make a text message QR code

Include the country code.

Scanning opens a text message with this filled in. Nothing is sent until the person taps Send.

Style

Enter the phone number the text should go to.

Static code: the content is inside the image, so it does not expire and we never see its scans.

Tips

  • Include the country code if people may scan from abroad.
  • Tell people what happens when they scan, such as "Scan to text us for a quote".
  • Send yourself a test before printing.

Questions

Does scanning send the text automatically?

No. It opens the messaging app with the number and message filled in. The person still taps send.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The built-in camera on current phones recognises text message codes and opens Messages.

Can I use it for a keyword opt-in, like "JOIN"?

Yes. Put your short code or number in and the keyword as the message. Follow the opt-in rules for your messaging provider and country.

Can I change the number later?

Not in this code, because the number is inside it. Make a new code if the number changes.
