What is a wa.me link?
A link like https://wa.me/923001234567 opens a WhatsApp chat with that number when someone taps it. The person does not need to save your number first. Add ?text= and the chat opens with your message already typed.
Make the link
- Open the WhatsApp Link Generator.
- Pick your country (for example Pakistan +92) and type your number the way you normally dial it. A leading 0 is removed automatically.
- Type an optional message, for example "Hi, I want to order".
- Tap Copy, or tap Test to try it.
Make the QR code
- Open the WhatsApp QR Code Generator.
- Enter the same number and message.
- Choose a size: 512 px for screens, 1024 px or SVG for printing.
- Download the PNG or SVG.
Where to use them
- Instagram or TikTok bio: paste the link in the website field.
- Shop, menu or visiting card: print the QR code so customers scan and chat.
- Facebook page, Google Business and website buttons.
- Posters and flyers: use the SVG for sharp printing.
Tips
- Test the link on your phone before you share it.
- Keep the pre-filled message short and clear.
- Only share a number you own or have permission to share.
