A phone number QR code removes the typing between someone seeing your number and calling it. They scan, the dialer opens with your number ready, and one tap places the call. Here is how to make one and where to put it.

TL;DR Open the phone number QR code generator, enter your number with its country code, then download a PNG or SVG. Scanning opens the dialer ready to call.

Get the number right

The only thing the code carries is your phone number, so format it well. Include the country code, for example +1 for the United States or +44 for the United Kingdom. That way the code works for callers anywhere, not just people who already know your local format.

Drop spaces and dashes if you like; the tool cleans the number for you and keeps the digits and the leading plus.

Where to place it

A call code suits anywhere a quick call beats a form: a service van, a “for hire” sign, a real-estate board, a takeaway menu, or a support poster. It is also a neat addition to a business card when calling is the action you want.

Pair the code with a caption like “Scan to call us.” People scan more readily when they know what happens next.

Keep it reliable

You can style the code with your colors and a small logo. Keep the foreground darker than the background and the logo modest in size, then test on a couple of phones. A code that scans first time is worth more than one that looks busy.

Make one now

The phone number QR code generator runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded. Enter the number, style it if you like, and download a PNG or SVG.

Frequently asked questions

Does scanning place the call automatically?
No. The code opens the dialer with your number ready. The person taps to call, so nobody is dialed without intent.
Do I have to include the country code?
Include it for reliability. A number like +1 555 123 4567 dials correctly whether the caller is local or in another country.
Will it work on any phone?
Yes. It uses the standard tel link, so the dialer opens with your number on both iPhone and Android.
