Generate a QR code that opens an email draft.
Enter an email address to preview your QR code.
An email QR code encodes a mailto link, so scanning it opens the person's default mail app with a draft already addressed and written. Instead of asking people to remember an address and compose a message, you hand them an email that is one tap from sent.
This free email QR code generator lets you set everything a draft can carry: the To address, a subject line, the message body, and optional CC and BCC recipients. The preview updates as you type and the finished code downloads as a PNG. The tool runs in your browser, so the addresses and message you enter are never uploaded or stored.
It works well anywhere you want to lower the barrier to getting an email: support stickers on hardware, RSVP requests on invitations, feedback prompts on packaging, press contact codes on event badges, or job application links on posters. A pre-filled subject like the product model or event name also means the emails you receive arrive consistently labeled and easy to filter.
Type the destination address in the To field. This is the only required field, and the tool validates it as you type.
Add a Subject and Body so the scanner's draft arrives ready to send. A consistent subject line makes incoming mail easy to sort.
Optionally copy another address with the CC or BCC fields, for example a shared inbox that should receive every message.
Tune the size, colors, and error correction, then click Download PNG. Keep the body short so the code stays easy to scan.
Their phone opens its default mail app with a new draft containing the address, subject, and body you set. They review it and tap send; nothing is sent automatically.
The scanner needs a configured email app or account on their device. On phones without one, the mailto link has nothing to open, so the scan will not produce a draft.
Yes. This tool encodes the subject, body, CC, and BCC into the mailto link, so the entire draft is filled in when the code is scanned.
Practically, yes. Every character makes the QR code denser and harder to scan, and some mail apps truncate very long mailto links. Keep the body to a sentence or two and let the sender add detail.
The BCC field behaves like normal email BCC once the message is sent, but note that anyone who decodes the QR code itself can read the full mailto link, including the BCC address.
No. The QR code is generated locally in your browser and nothing you type is uploaded to a server.
