How to make a phone number QR code
To make a phone number QR code, type the number in the form above, including the country code with a plus sign, such as +1 for the United States. The QR code appears at once. Download it as PNG or SVG. When someone scans it, their phone shows the number and offers to call, so they never have to type it. It is generated in your browser and never uploaded.
What is inside the code
The QR code holds a tel link, which is the same as tapping a phone number on a web page. Spaces, brackets and hyphens are removed so that the example above becomes tel:+15551234567. Phones show it as a call suggestion and let the user confirm before dialling.
Always use the international format
Write the number with a plus sign and the country code, for example +44 for the United Kingdom or +34 for Spain. Without it, the number only works for people in the same country as you, and a code printed on a poster is seen by tourists and travellers too.
Where it helps
- Shop windows and vehicles, where people cannot write a number down.
- Flyers, notice boards and lost-pet posters with a contact number.
- Emergency and reception numbers on equipment and in rental properties.
- Service vans and trade adverts, which get calls straight from the street.
Alternatives
If you want people to save your details, use a vCard QR code, which adds a contact with your name, phone and email. If you want them to write, use the email QR code, and for a quick text message use the SMS QR code. A WhatsApp QR code is best when your customers are already there.
Private by design
The code is drawn by your browser on your own device. What you type, including passwords and contact details, is never sent to a server, and the finished image is yours with no watermark and no expiry.
Frequently asked questions
Will the phone call automatically?
No. The phone shows the number and asks the person to confirm the call.
Should I include the country code?
Yes. Use the international format, with a plus sign, so the code works for anyone regardless of where they are.
Is a phone QR code static?
Yes. The number is stored in the picture, so it works forever without an account, but a new number needs a new code.
Is there a limit to how many QR codes I can make?
No. There is no limit, no sign-up and no watermark; the codes are created in your browser.
Is this converter free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no limit, and it runs in your browser, so nothing you type is sent to a server.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It works in any modern mobile browser, and the result updates as you type.
