How a WhatsApp QR code works

The code holds a wa.me link, WhatsApp's own address for starting a chat. Scanning it opens WhatsApp on a chat with your number, with your message typed and ready to send. The person scanning does not need to save your number first.

Write the number with its country code and no leading zero: +44 7700 900123, not 07700 900123.

QR code questions

Does the person scanning need my number saved?

No. The wa.me link opens a chat with any WhatsApp number.

Can I count how many people scan it?

Not with a code that holds the wa.me link itself. Make a short link to the wa.me address in rdyrct and a QR code for that: every scan is counted, and you can change the number later without reprinting.

Does it work with WhatsApp Business?

Yes. wa.me links open WhatsApp Business numbers the same way.
