A WhatsApp QR code links directly to a chat with your number, complete with an optional pre-filled message. Scanning it opens WhatsApp and starts the conversation immediately — no need to save a contact first. It's ideal for customer support, restaurants, retail counters, and small businesses that want faster inquiries.
