Does the WhatsApp QR code work with WhatsApp Business?
It opens a chat with the number you enter, so it works with a WhatsApp Business number or a normal WhatsApp number.
Opens WhatsAppChange the number later
A WhatsApp QR code that starts a chat with one scan.
Most South African customers would rather message than call. Put a code on a van, a shop window or a flyer that opens a WhatsApp chat with your business and a message already typed.
20 dynamic codes, every feature unlocked, no credit card.
What the customer sees
Hi, I would like a quote for a new website
Hi! Thanks for scanning. What do you need?
Example only
Chat opens ready to send
The code opens WhatsApp with your number and a message such as "Hi, I would like a quote". The customer taps send.
Change the number later
New number or a different team member? Update the destination and the printed code follows. No new signage.
Know which sign works
Use a separate code for the van, the window and the flyer, and compare how many scans each gets.
How to set up a WhatsApp code
- 1
Choose the WhatsApp type
Enter the number you want customers to message, in international format, and an optional starting message.
- 2
Make it look like yours
Add your logo and brand colours, and a frame such as "Chat to us on WhatsApp".
- 3
Print and place it
Vehicle branding, shop windows, flyers, invoices and quotes. Test with two phones before printing.
What to know
- The code opens a chat from the customer’s own WhatsApp. QR Code Pro does not send, store or read the messages.
- You see scans with city, device and time. You do not see who messaged or what was said.
- Use a number that someone will actually answer. A code on a van that nobody monitors costs you trust.
- Dynamic codes need an active account. If it lapses the printed codes stop redirecting.
Get your WhatsApp code ready
1
Pick the number and the message
Use a number that is monitored in business hours and a message that tells you where the customer scanned.
2
Put it where people wait or pass
A van, a shop window, a counter or an invoice. Real placement is what shows you whether it works.
3
Compare placements
Make one code per placement and compare scans after a week.
What to check: scans per placement over the first week, so you know which sign sends people to WhatsApp.
The trial: 14 days, 20 dynamic codes, every feature unlocked, no credit card.
Then: Pro is R99/month for 50 codes, Pro+ R199/month for 200 and Team R299/month for 500. Unlimited scans on every plan, billed in Rand through PayFast, cancel any time.
If you do nothing: your dynamic codes stop redirecting when the trial ends, so choose a plan before printing a big run.
Questions
Can I change the number after printing?
Yes. A dynamic code redirects, so you update the destination and the printed code keeps working.
Can I set a message in advance?
Yes. You can add a starting message so the customer opens a chat with the text already typed, for example the product or the sign they scanned.
Do you see my customers’ messages?
No. The chat happens inside WhatsApp between your customer and your number. We only count the scan.
How much does QR Code Pro cost?
There is a 14-day trial with 20 dynamic codes and no credit card. After that Pro is R99/month for 50 codes, Pro+ is R199/month for 200 codes and Team is R299/month for 500 codes. Scans are unlimited on every plan and you pay in Rand through PayFast.
What happens when the trial ends?
If you do nothing, your dynamic codes stop redirecting when the 14 days end. Your account is kept for a while so you can come back and choose a plan. Pick a plan before you print a large run.
