QR code for Instagram, Telegram and WhatsApp

A code on the counter, a shop window or a business card turns a passer-by into a follower in one scan. Kodla builds the right link from your username, so you don't have to look up how each network formats it.

Step by step

1. On the «Create» tab scroll the type strip to the end and choose «Social».
2. Pick the network: Instagram, Telegram, WhatsApp, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook or Google Play.
3. In «Username or link» type your username (with or without @) or paste a full link with «Paste». For WhatsApp enter the phone number with the country code.
4. Style the code in «Design»: colors, a template, a «Card» frame with «SCAN ME», or your logo (Pro).
5. Tap «Save image» or «Share». Kodla test-scans the code before saving.
6. Print it for the counter, packaging or a flyer, or post the image in your stories.

Tips

• Check the spelling of the username: one wrong letter and the code leads to someone else's profile. Scan the finished code with your own phone.
• For a Telegram group or a private channel, paste the invite link (t.me/…) instead of a username.
• WhatsApp opens a chat with your number, so use the number your WhatsApp is on — a work number is best.
• If you rename the account, the old code stops working. Make a new one.
