Free Email QR Code Generator
One scan opens the email app with your address, subject, and message ready to send. No typing, no account needed.
This type opens the user's email client with the recipient filled in first, then optional CC, subject, and message body.
Prefill email recipients, subject lines, and message body.
If you need to update the content or see who scans, create a dynamic QR code instead.
Create a dynamic QR codeWhat is an email QR code?
An email QR code is a static QR code that opens the scanner's default email app with the recipient address, subject line, and body text pre-filled. Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, and most other email apps support it.
One scan, one tap
The scanner sees the mailto: link and opens a new email draft. The person just hits Send.
No app install
Works with whatever email app the phone already uses.
No internet dependency
The link is stored in the QR pattern itself. Scanning works offline. Sending the email requires a connection.
Three fields you can pre-fill
An email QR code can include more than just the recipient address. You control what appears in the draft.
Recipient (To)
The email address that receives the message. This field works on every email app.
Subject line
A pre-written subject so the sender does not have to think of one. Useful for routing messages to the right inbox folder.
Body text
A short pre-filled message. Helpful for support requests, order references, or RSVP confirmations where you want a specific format.
Subject and body support varies by app
The recipient field works everywhere. Subject and body are less consistent. Here is what to expect.
Apple Mail
iPhone, iPad, Mac
Gmail
Android and iOS
Outlook
Android and iOS
Samsung Email
Galaxy devices
ProtonMail
and privacy apps
Create a QR code for email in 3 steps
Enter the email address
The address people will email when they scan. Double-check for typos. Once printed, it cannot be changed.
Add a subject and body (optional)
Pre-fill the subject line and message if you want a consistent format. Leave them blank to let the sender write their own.
Download and print
PNG or SVG. Add it to business cards, flyers, packaging, or signage.
Where to use an email QR code
Anywhere you want people to reach you without typing your address.
Product packaging
Place a QR code for new support email, complaints, warranty, or reorder inquiries.
Event badges and lanyards
Attendees scan to contact you, request materials, or send follow-up details.
Flyers and posters
Add a QR code to mail RSVP, request, or feedback.
Storefronts and reception desks
Visitors can send you a message without waiting in line.
Invoices and receipts
Include a QR code that opens a pre-filled email for billing questions.
Business cards
Pair with your contact details. One scan starts a conversation.
What static email QR codes cannot do
Static QR codes are simple and permanent. That means some things are outside their reach.
No editing after print
The email address, subject, and body are baked into the pattern. Change any field and you need a new code.
No scan tracking
Static codes do not connect to a server. You will not know how many people scanned or where.
No landing page
The code opens the email app directly. There is no intermediate page to show your brand, hours, or other details.
No A/B testing
One code, one destination. You cannot rotate recipients or messages.
For most "scan to email us" use cases, these limits do not matter. The code does one thing and does it reliably.
Need editing, tracking, or a full contact page?
If a static email QR code feels too limited, two free alternatives give you more flexibility.
Same QR pattern, changeable content.
Both options are dynamic, which means the QR pattern stays the same even when you change the content behind it. Free plan available for both.
