How do I make an email QR code?

Open the generator, choose the Email type, and enter the recipient address plus an optional subject and message. The QR code is created instantly — download it as PNG or SVG.

What happens when someone scans it?

Their phone opens a new email in the default mail app with your address, subject and message already filled in. They just review and hit send.

Is it free and private?

Yes. It is free with no sign-up, and the code is generated in your browser so the address and message are never uploaded.

Can I include a subject and body?

Yes. You can pre-fill the subject line and the message body, which is handy for support requests, feedback or enquiries where you want a consistent starting point.

What an email QR code does

When someone scans it, their phone opens a new message in the default mail app with your recipient address — and, if you set them, a subject line and body — already in place. They just review and send. It removes the friction of typing an address correctly and is a reliable way to collect enquiries, support requests or feedback from a printed page.

How to make one

1. Click Make an email QR code. 2. Enter the recipient address, and optionally a subject and message. 3. Adjust colour and margin if you like. 4. Download as PNG for screens or SVG for sharp printing at any size.

Where to use it

Put it on a business card, flyer, product insert, event poster or shop window so people can reach you without hunting for your address. Pre-filling the subject (for example "Website enquiry") helps you sort incoming mail, and pre-filling the body gives customers a helpful prompt for what to include.

Email QR vs. a mailto link

An email QR code is essentially a scannable version of a mailto: link — the same standard that powers "email us" buttons on websites. The difference is that a QR code works from the physical world: a printed sign, a poster or packaging. For online use a plain link is better; for anything printed, the QR code bridges paper to inbox in one scan.

Free, private and yours to keep

The code is generated locally in your browser, so the address and any message you enter are never sent to a server. There is no account, no watermark and no limit — make as many as you need for personal or business use, and download a clean image you fully own.

Because it is a static code, there is nothing to expire and no redirect in the middle. As long as the email address stays valid, the printed code keeps working.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes — no sign-up and no watermark, and you can use it commercially.

Is my address uploaded?

No. The code is generated in your browser, so nothing you type leaves your device.

Can I pre-fill the subject and message?

Yes. Both are optional fields, useful for sorting enquiries and guiding what people write.

No. It opens a pre-filled draft in the person's mail app; they review and send it themselves.

Will it print clearly?

Yes. Download SVG for posters and cards — it stays sharp at any size.
