Remove friction from customer communication across print marketing.
Eliminate typos in addresses
Customers often mistype long business email addresses on mobile keyboards. An email QR code ensures your address is 100% accurate every time, preventing lost sales leads.
Pre-classify incoming tickets
By embedding specific subject lines (e.g. Support Ticket - Order #... or RSVP Reception), your team can instantly sort, filter, and route inbound customer emails automatically.
Zero server data tracking
Everything is generated in your browser using standard mailto: URI syntax. We never store, log, or read your email addresses or messages.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about creating pre-filled email QR codes.
What happens when someone scans an email QR code?
When scanned by an iPhone or Android camera, the smartphone prompts the user to open their default email app (such as Apple Mail, Gmail, or Microsoft Outlook). The compose window opens automatically with the recipient address, subject line, and message template pre-populated, ready for the user to tap send.
Does scanning the QR code send the email automatically?
No. Mobile operating systems require explicit user confirmation for privacy and security. The QR code only drafts the email; the customer retains full control to review or edit the text before tapping the send button.
Is there a limit to how long the email subject or body can be?
While QR codes can technically hold up to 3,000 characters, longer text produces an extremely dense matrix of microscopic dots that is harder for phone cameras to scan when printed small. Keep your subject and body concise (under 200–300 characters) for maximum print reliability.
Can email harvesters or spammers scrape my address from a printed QR code?
Standard online web scrapers crawl HTML text on web pages, not physical printed paper. Printing an email QR code on a physical sign, packaging insert, or brochure is significantly safer from automated bot scraping than publishing your raw email address on a public webpage.
