What is an email QR code?

An email QR code opens the phone's mail app with the recipient, subject, and message body already filled in. The person scanning just reviews and taps send — no address to type and no subject to remember.

It uses the standard mailto: format, which every modern phone and email client understands. The address and message are encoded into a static image, so nothing is stored on a server and the code works forever.

When to use it

Feedback and reviews

Let customers scan a code on a receipt or table tent to send feedback straight to your inbox.

Support requests

Prefill a support email so users send the right details without hunting for an address.

Business cards

Give contacts a one-tap way to email you with a ready-made subject.

Events and RSVPs

Let guests scan to confirm attendance with a prefilled RSVP message.

Printing and scanning tips

  • Keep the prefilled message short — long bodies make denser codes that are harder to scan.
  • Use a clear, specific subject so incoming emails are easy to sort and filter.
  • Test by scanning into your own mail app to confirm the address and body appear correctly.
  • Print at least 2 × 2 cm with a white quiet zone around the code.
  • Use dark dots on a light background for the most reliable scanning.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with all email apps?

It uses the standard mailto: format, which iOS Mail, Gmail, Outlook, and most clients support. The phone opens its default mail app.

Can I prefill the subject and body?

Yes. Both fields are optional — fill in either or both to prefill the message.

Is the email address visible in the code?

Yes, it is encoded into the image. Only share the code where you are comfortable receiving email.

Does the code expire?

No. As long as the email address stays active, the code keeps opening a prefilled message forever.

Can I send to multiple recipients?

This generator targets a single recipient. For groups, use a mailing list or alias address as the recipient.

Will it send the email automatically?

No. Scanning opens a draft for the person to review and send. Nothing is sent without their confirmation.
