How it works

Step by step

1

Prepare your chat link

Start with your wa.me click-to-chat link, optionally with a pre-filled message so scans land in a ready conversation.

Paste the link into a WhatsApp QR code generator to produce a scannable image.

3

Add a clear call to action

Pair the code with text like Scan to chat with us on WhatsApp so people know what it does.
