Email QR Code Generator: Prefilled Address, Subject and Body

Make a QR code that opens a new message with the address, subject and body already filled in. Useful on a poster, a business card or a slide where you want replies rather than clicks.

Frequently asked questions

What does scanning an email QR code open?

The default mail application with a new message already addressed, and the subject and body filled in if you provided them. On a phone that is one tap to send rather than copying an address off a poster.

Can I use it for a survey or an enquiry form?

Better to put a link to the form in the body, or generate a URL code instead, because a mailto payload depends on the device having a mail account configured. A link opens on every device.

Will the code work if I change my address later?

No, the address is inside the pattern, so a changed address means a new code. For anything printed in quantity, encode a link you control and move the destination instead. The whole operation runs inside your browser tab; the file is never uploaded, so nothing is stored or logged.
