Tips
Tips for Instagram QR codes
Make sure your account is public
If your Instagram account is private, people who scan can request to follow — but they cannot see your content. Switch to a professional or public account for full access.
Enter your exact username
The username is case-insensitive on Instagram but must match exactly — no spaces, no @ symbol. Copy it from your Instagram profile to avoid typos.
Add your logo for brand recognition
Uploading your profile photo or brand logo to the center of the QR code makes it visually recognizable — people know what they are about to follow before scanning.
Test before printing
Scan the downloaded code and confirm it opens your correct Instagram profile page before printing large quantities.

Yes — switch Link type to "Post or Reel" and paste the full URL from Instagram. For profile links, keep the default Profile option.
The QR code is static — it encodes your username at creation time. If you change your handle, the old code will lead to a broken profile. Create a new QR code after any username change.
