How to Create an Email QR Code

An email QR code encodes a mailto: link. When scanned, the phone opens its email app with a new draft already addressed - and, if you want, with the subject line and message body filled in. The recipient just reviews and taps send, removing the friction of copying an address by hand.

Step by step

  • Enter the destination email address (required).
  • Optionally add a subject and a message body - both are URL-encoded so punctuation and line breaks survive.
  • Style the code and download it for your flyer, poster or website.

Posters that open an application or enquiry email addressed to your inbox.

Tips

  • Keep the pre-filled body short - long text makes a denser, harder-to-scan code.
  • The code opens a draft only; it never sends automatically, so users stay in control.
  • Double-check the address - a typo means a scan goes nowhere.

Email QR Code FAQ

What does an email QR code do?

It encodes a mailto link, so scanning opens a new email with the recipient (and optional subject/body) already filled in.

Can I pre-fill the subject and message?

Yes. Both are URL-encoded into the code, preserving special characters and line breaks.

Does it send automatically?

No. It only opens a draft in the user's email app; they review and send it themselves.

Which email app opens?

Whatever the device has set as its default mail handler - Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook and others all support mailto links.
