How to create an Instagram QR code

An Instagram QR code turns your handle into something people can scan in the physical world. Instead of typing your username into the app and hoping they spell it right, they scan and land on your profile — one tap from a new follower.

  1. Enter your @username or paste your full profile link.
  2. Match your brand with colours and a centre logo (optional).
  3. Use High error correction if you added a logo.
  4. Download as PNG, SVG or JPEG for your window, packaging or card.

Where Instagram QR codes help

Shop windows and counters to turn footfall into followers. Product packaging and thank-you cards for post-purchase follows. Event stands, market stalls and pop-ups. Business cards and flyers for creators. Because it works with the normal camera, there is no 'open the app first' step to lose people.

Instagram QR code FAQ

How do I make a QR code for my Instagram?

Enter your @username (or paste your profile link) above. The code points to instagram.com/yourhandle, so scanning opens your profile in the browser or the Instagram app, ready to follow.

Is this different from Instagram's own QR code?

Instagram has an in-app 'nametag' code that only works inside the app's own scanner. This code is a standard QR that any phone camera can read and open in a browser or the app — better for print and public display.

Can I brand it with my colours and logo?

Yes. Set your colours and drop a logo in the centre through the design section. Keep error correction on High when using a logo so it still scans.

Will it still work if I change my username?

The code points to your current handle, so if you rename your account you should generate a fresh code. The old one would lead to a dead profile link.

Does it cost anything or expire?

No. It is a free static QR code with no account and no expiry, and it can be scanned any number of times.
