Create a QR code that opens a pre-filled SMS message. Free and customizable.
Save it to your dashboard, change the URL anytime, and see who scans it. All free.
An SMS QR code pre-fills a text message (phone number and message body) so the user just has to hit Send. It uses the standard sms: URI format supported natively on iOS and Android, no app installation required. This is particularly powerful for businesses running SMS marketing campaigns: lower the barrier to opt-in, and more people opt in.
Common uses include 'Text to win' promotions on packaging, appointment reminder opt-ins at a front desk, subscription sign-ups for weekly deals, and two-way customer support channels. A restaurant might put an SMS QR code on the table: 'Scan to get a reminder text before your next visit.' A dentist might use one at checkout for appointment reminders.
In many countries, carriers strip the message body from the sms: URI for regulatory reasons, so the number pre-fills but the user has to type the message. Always test on both iOS and Android with the specific carriers your customers use before committing to a print run.
