    Sample data · SMS QR

No mistyped or misdialed numbers

Long numbers on signs, decals and vehicles are easy to fat-finger from a distance. One scan and the recipient field is already correct — every reply reaches the right line, every time.

The message is already written

Preset the text to send — 'Text INFO for pricing' or 'Reply YES to confirm' — so scanners don't have to think of what to say. Consistent wording also makes incoming replies easy to sort and route.

Faster than a phone call, harder to ignore than a form

A text gets opened; a voicemail often doesn't. Use it where you'd normally ask someone to 'call or text' — leasing signs, service trucks, curbside pickup — and skip straight to the reply.

Update the number without reprinting

Handed the line off to a new team member, or swapped providers? Change the destination number and message on a dynamic code and every sign or sticker already in the field keeps working.

Frequently asked questions

  • How does an SMS QR code work?

    It encodes a phone number and, optionally, a preset message. Scanning it with a phone camera opens the default messaging app with a new text already addressed and worded — the recipient just reviews and sends.

  • Do I need a special app to scan it?

    No. Any modern iPhone (iOS 11+) or Android phone reads it directly from the built-in camera app, and opens the standard Messages app to send.

  • Can I preset the text message content?

    Yes. Set the exact wording you want sent — a keyword, a question, a confirmation phrase — and it's already typed into the outgoing message when the scanner's app opens.

  • Can I change the phone number later?

    Yes, with a dynamic code. Update the destination number or the preset message anytime and the same printed sign or sticker keeps pointing to the new details — no reprint needed.

  • Will this work on both iPhone and Android?

    Yes. Both platforms support the sms: link format natively, so the code behaves the same whether the scanner is on iOS or Android.

  • How much does it cost?

    Designing and previewing your SMS QR code is free. To download and activate it you start a 7-day trial, then it's $49.90/mo or $500/yr. Cancel anytime.
