Common Uses for SMS QR Codes

Lead Generation

Branding & customization

Custom dot styles (dots, rounded, classy, extra rounded), distinctive corner squares and corner dots are more scannable when contrast remains strong. Gradients should stay subtle and avoid low‑contrast transitions near the finder corners. Embedded logos are best placed on a white (or lightly tinted) padded rectangle to maintain recognition.

Best Practices for Creating QR Codes

  • Keep minimum contrast ratio of roughly 4.5:1 between foreground and background.
  • Maintain an uncluttered quiet zone (~4 modules) around the QR code edges.
  • Select higher error correction (Q or H) if embedding larger logos or dense gradients.
  • Avoid stretching or skewing the code when placing in layouts; scale proportionally.
  • Test on multiple mid‑range phone cameras under indoor and low‑light conditions.
  • Use SVG for print (vector sharpness) and PNG for web (smaller payload).

SMS QR Code FAQ

Can I pre-fill the message content?

Yes, you can specify both the recipient's phone number and the exact message you want to be sent. This is great for keyword-based campaigns (e.g., 'Text JOIN to 12345').

Does the user have to send the message?

The QR code only prepares the message. The user still has full control and must tap the 'send' button themselves. This ensures they consent to sending the SMS.

Will this work internationally?

Yes, as long as you include the correct country code with the phone number (e.g., +1 for the US). The user's mobile carrier charges for the SMS will apply as usual.
