QR code for WhatsApp
The customer scans, WhatsApp opens your chat with the text already typed: they just press send.
How to make it
- 01Type the number with its country code, e.g. +1 or +44.
- 02Add an opening message, e.g. “I'd like to book”.
- 03Download the code and put it on your window, flyers or receipts.
Tips
- The country code is required
- Without the country code (+1, +44…) WhatsApp can't find the number.
- One message per place
- Use different texts on the flyer and the window: the message tells you where the customer came from.
- WhatsApp Business
- Works the same with WhatsApp Business numbers.
