Damage resistance

QR codes can still scan even if part of the image is dirty, torn or covered by a logo. A higher setting means more of the code can be damaged before it stops working — but it also makes the pattern denser. M is the right choice for most people.

Survives up to 15% damage. Good for most uses — websites, print, screens.

What is a QR code?

A QR code (Quick Response code) is a two-dimensional barcode that stores information as a pattern of black and white squares. Any smartphone camera can read one instantly — no app required — and take the user to a website, connect them to a WiFi network, save a contact or perform any other action encoded in the code.

QR codes were originally developed in 1994 to track automotive parts. They became widely used in consumer applications after smartphones with built-in camera readers became mainstream, and usage accelerated sharply during the 2020s as a touchless alternative to printed menus, tickets and forms.

The pattern includes built-in error correction, which means a QR code continues to scan reliably even if part of it is damaged, dirty or obscured — including by a logo overlay. The amount of redundancy is controlled by the error correction level you choose when generating the code.

Frequently asked questions

An SMS QR code opens the phone's messages app with a pre-filled text message — the recipient number and optional message body are already filled in. The user just taps Send. It is commonly used for customer support lines, opt-in campaigns and shortcodes.
No. The phone number is the only required field. Leave the message blank to create a QR code that simply opens a new message to that number.
Use international format with the country code, for example +1 555 123 4567 for a US number or +44 7911 123456 for a UK number. This ensures the QR code works for people scanning from different countries.
Yes. Both iOS and Android handle the sms: URI that this QR code encodes. The built-in camera app or QR reader will open the default messages app with the number and body pre-filled.
Yes. Pre-fill the message body with the opt-in keyword your SMS platform expects (for example "JOIN" or "YES"), point it at your shortcode or long number, and scanning the code will let customers opt in with one tap.
No. The sms: link is encoded directly into the QR code image and works indefinitely. If you change your number or shortcode you will need to generate a new code.
