Download and try it
Scan the code and check that your messaging app opens with your number and message.
Tips for an SMS QR Code
Make texts easy to send, and easy to deal with.
Use a keyword per code
A short keyword like JOIN, MENU or HELP makes texts easy to sort, and to answer automatically if your SMS service supports it.
Check the rules on marketing texts
If people text to join a list, say so next to the code and check your country's rules on marketing texts before you send any.
Mention that standard rates apply
People pay their usual rate to send a text. A short note next to the code avoids surprises.
Offer another way to reach you
Some tablets and laptops can't send texts, so print your number or another way to get in touch next to the code.
