Free Instagram QR code generator. Your profile or a DM, in one scan.
Your QR code appears here
Type your Instagram username, choose what the code opens and download it. A message code opens a direct message with you, so a customer at your shop window can ask a question in one scan. A profile code opens your profile. Free, no sign-up, and nothing is stored: the code is the link itself, so it keeps working for as long as your username does.

How do I make an Instagram QR code?
1 2 Choose message or profile
Message opens a DM with you. Profile opens your page.
3 Download and test
Download the PNG for screens or the SVG for print, then scan it with your phone before you print.
Where does a message QR code work best?
Shop windows and counters
People can ask about stock or opening hours when you are closed or busy.
Packaging and receipts
Customers reach you about an order without looking for an email address.
Flyers, menus and events
One scan starts the conversation, so you get the question while the interest is there.
Instagram DM, 23:41
Are you open on Sunday?
Yes, from 10 to 4. Shall I keep the blue one for you?
Who answers the messages?
A code on a window keeps working at night and on Sundays, and the messages arrive then too.

Questions about Instagram QR codes
Type your username above, choose whether the code opens your profile or a message with you, pick a colour and download it as PNG, SVG or a ready-to-print card. It takes about ten seconds.
ig.me is Meta's short link for Instagram messages: ig.me/m/ followed by a username opens a direct message with that account. The message QR code on this page is that link.
Yes. There is no sign-up and no limit, and the codes never expire. They are made in your browser and nothing is stored.
A message code opens a direct message with your account (the link is ig.me/m/ and your username). A profile code opens your Instagram profile. Instagram's own app only makes the profile kind, under Share profile on your profile.
No. With the bubble on, the code uses the highest error correction QR codes have, which keeps it readable with the centre covered. Scan it once with your phone before you print, as with any code.
Yes. With the app, the code opens Instagram directly. Without it, the link opens in the browser, where Instagram may ask the person to log in first.
The code holds your username, so make a new one after a change. The old code will open the old name.
Keep it at least 2 cm (about 0.8 inch) wide, with white space around it, and scan it with your phone before you print a batch. Use the SVG for print: it stays sharp at any size.
No. The code is only a link, so nothing is counted. With SimplyBoost connected to your Instagram, you see every conversation that starts.
