Create a QR code that opens an email
Scanning opens the phone's mail app with your address, subject and message already written. The person still decides whether to send.
- No signup
- No scan ads or redirects
- SVG, PNG & vector PDF

Opens the phone's default mail app with everything filled in. Nothing is sent until the person taps Send.
Templates change the look only. What you typed stays as it is.
M: the print standard without a logo.

What's inside the code
Email codes are mailto: links. Spaces and symbols in the subject and body are percent-encoded so every mail app reads them the same way:
mailto:orders@example.com?subject=Order%20%2312&body=Hi%2C%20I'd%20like%20to%20ask%20about...Things to know
- The code opens whatever mail app the phone uses by default. Phones with no mail account set up will ask to configure one.
- Long bodies make dense codes. Keep the prefilled message to a line or two.
- Nothing is sent automatically, so people can edit or cancel the message.
