How can I create my own Scan-to-Chat QR code?

You can use Superchat’s built-in QR code generator to create a QR code that links directly to your WhatsApp number and includes a predefined opening message.

This is particularly useful if you’re working with automations that are triggered by a specific customer message, as it allows customers to instantly start the flow by messaging the trigger word.

QR codes can also help you track where conversations originate from. For example, by using different QR codes (with different opening messages), you can gain valuable insights into which marketing activities are driving customer engagement.
