Use our Facebook QR codes to link to your Facebook page or allow users to “Like” a website with one simple scan. Generate more Likes and social engagement by adding a Facebook QR code to any of your printed materials, in-store promotions or email messages.
Facebook QR codes are just one of the 23 fully-functional and non-expiring QR code data types that free users can create at www.qrstuff.com with no sign-up or registration required.
How To Create A Facebook Link QR Code
This one simply links to your Facebook page.
- Go to https://www.qrstuff.com/?type=facebook and have the “Facebook” data type pre-selected from the Data Type section.
- Next, choose “Link to Facebook Page” in the Content section.
- Enter the URL for your Facebook page – it will look something like https://www.facebook.com/<username>. In the example, we’ve used our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/qrstuff.
- At this point, you can click the “Download QR Code” button and your Facebook QR Code is done.
How To Create A Facebook Like QR Code
Use this one to allow someone to Like a Facebook page, a website, web page or blog post. When used for a non-Facebook web page, the action of the person scanning the QR code and clicking on “Like” has the same result as the Like buttons that can be embedded in a web page.
- Go to https://www.qrstuff.com/?type=facebook and have the “Facebook” data type pre-selected from the Data Type section.
- Then, choose “Create Facebook Like” under Content Section.
- Enter the URL of the Facebook page, website or website page to be Liked, and enter a title for that page or website.
- Lastly, click the “Download QR Code” button and your Facebook QR code is done.
Try it out now by scanning the two QR codes shown in the images above.
Make It A Bit Fancy
While free users can change the foreground colour of their QR code, paid subscribers have the ability to also change the appearance of QR code image and embed a logo or image in the centre of it. Just use the steps outlined above to create your Facebook QR code, and then, before you download your finished QR code, click the “Style Your QR Code” button to change its appearance.
To the right is an example that shows what could be done to the Facebook QR code created above using our QR Code Styling feature. Our styling interface allows you to make your QR code more visually distinctive and, by embedding a suitable image, perhaps more intuitive as well.
Our previous post on QR Code Styling will give you more information about how to use this feature.

does Facebook let you put a QR code on your cover photo?
Sure, facebook allows users to put a QR Code in their cover photo. We got one on our page for a few years now https://www.facebook.com/qrstuff/
Hello
Could a QR code be generated to get the person scanning to a Facebook post with prefilled text and the option to modify the post (like adding a picture) before posting?
No, Facebook API doesn’t have that functionality.
Hello
How long do these codes last for? What if i pay for a year or 6months and your QR code service is no longer in operation what do I do as a paid subscriber?
Thank you
Hi SK, the QR codes (and any underlying short URLs) created by both free users and paid subscribers are permanent and will continue to function indefinitely. There is a limit of the number of scans allowed per month. You can read about this in more detail on our FAQ page under the heading “Are there any limits on use?” Please feel free to email support@qrstuff.com with any further questions.
Thank you! That is very reassuring
