Free email QR code generator

Prefill the recipient, subject, and message so one scan opens a ready-to-send email.

The encoded value updates locally as you type. Nothing in these fields is sent to BananaSplit.

Remove the friction from an email call to action

The QR code contains a mailto link. A scan opens the visitor’s default email app; it does not send anything automatically.

How it works

  1. Add the recipient

    Keep the subject short enough to understand at a glance.

  2. Write an optional subject and message

    Do not place confidential information in the prefilled message.

  3. Scan-test the draft in a mail app

    Make the surrounding call to action explain what the email is for.

Practical checks

  • Keep the subject short enough to understand at a glance.
  • Do not place confidential information in the prefilled message.
  • Make the surrounding call to action explain what the email is for.

Generate QR codes with your agent

Use the public QR code API from an agent, app, script or workflow. It returns a deterministic SVG without storing the encoded value.

Static, private, yours

  • Free for commercial use

    Use the downloaded QR code on menus, packaging, posters, tickets, stickers, or client work.

  • No expiry or scan cap

    The destination is stored in the dots. There is no BananaSplit redirect to expire or limit.

  • Built in your browser

    Your destination, Wi-Fi password, contact details, and logo stay on this device.

  • Print-ready SVG

    Download a vector file that stays sharp from a table card to event signage.

Static QR codes, without the subscription trap

Every code made here is static: the data is encoded directly in the QR pattern. It keeps working without a BananaSplit account, server, or subscription.

Static also means the destination cannot be edited after printing and BananaSplit does not collect scan analytics. If the destination may change, encode a URL you control and redirect that URL yourself.

Made in the field

We built the QR tool we wanted for our own event posters

BananaSplit first relied on QR codes while meeting people in person at Paredes de Coura and Vilar de Mouros. The codes had to print cleanly, scan quickly, and keep working after the posters left our hands.

That is why this generator is browser-first, exportable as SVG, and honest about what a static code can and cannot do. We use it for real BananaSplit activations; everyone else can use it free.

From hand-held signs to a drinks activation and sticker runs, the lesson stayed the same: leave breathing room, keep the contrast high, and scan-test the finished physical piece—not only the file.

Free email QR code generator FAQ

Does scanning send the email?

No. It opens a draft that the person can review and send.

Which email app opens?

The device uses its configured default mail app.

Does BananaSplit receive the message?

No. The code only contains the mailto link you create.

Splitting the bill after the scan?

BananaSplit keeps track of who paid what, so nobody has to do maths at the table.
