Tips for NigeriaGet a code that scans first time.
- Enter phone numbers with the country code (+234) without the leading zero, so WhatsApp links work from any country.
- Print in high contrast and test the code on a mid-range Android phone in normal lighting before a large print run.
- Choose a higher error-correction level for stickers and packaging that may get scuffed.
- This generator doesn't process payments. To accept money by QR, create the code in your bank or wallet app, or encode a payment link from your provider here.
- Choose a dark colour for the code and a light background for best results.
QR codes in Nigeria: questions
Is there a free QR code generator I can use in Nigeria?
Yes. QRNexus is free, needs no sign-up and works in any modern phone or computer browser.
How do I make a WhatsApp QR code for my Nigerian business?
Open the WhatsApp type, enter your number in international format (+234 followed by the number without the leading 0) and optionally a starting message. Download the code and print it.
Does the QR code need internet to be created?
Once the page has loaded, codes are generated on your device. Scanning a QR code that opens a website does need the scanner's phone to be online.
