LinkedIn QR Code Generator

A LinkedIn QR code is a scannable square that points directly to your LinkedIn profile, company page, or group. Instead of spelling out your name at a busy event and hoping the other person finds the right profile among a dozen namesakes, they point their phone camera at the code and land on your page in a second. It turns any physical surface, a business card, a badge, a slide, into a one-tap follow or connection request.

The generator above builds that code for free. Paste your LinkedIn URL, pick a size and color, and download a high-resolution PNG. There is no signup, no watermark, and no limit on how many you make. Because the code is a static image, it keeps working forever as long as the URL behind it stays the same.

You find your LinkedIn QR code in the LinkedIn mobile app: tap the QR code icon in the search bar at the top, then open the My Code tab. Here are the steps:

1. Open the LinkedIn app on your phone and look for the QR code icon in the search bar at the top of the home page.
2. Tap the icon and open the My Code tab. Your personal code is shown there, and anyone can scan it straight from your screen.
3. Share or save it. On iPhone, tap Share my code or Save to photos. On Android, tap Save to gallery.

These are the labels LinkedIn uses in its help center. If you do not see the QR code icon, update the app first.

To scan someone else's code, tap the same QR code icon and switch to the Scan tab. Allow camera access if the app asks, then hold your phone over their code. Scanning opens their profile instead of sending a connection request, so you still choose whether to connect or follow. If you want those requests to get accepted, our guide on how to get LinkedIn connections covers what to say.

Use the generator at the top of this page instead when you want to pick the colors and size yourself, download a PNG to place in a printed layout, or point the code at a company page, school page, or group. It runs in your browser, so it also works from a desktop.

Both point people to a LinkedIn page. The difference is how much control you have over the code you end up with:

The code you generate here is static: it encodes the URL you paste and does not track scans. If you later change your custom LinkedIn URL, generate a new code so it points to the new address.

A QR code is only useful where people can scan it. These are the places that convert best, roughly in order of how often they get scanned:

• Business cards. Print the code on the back so a new contact connects on the spot instead of losing the card in a drawer. A clean contact section on your profile matters here, so it is worth reading our B2B LinkedIn profile optimization guide before you point people to it.
• Resumes and CVs. A small code in the header lets a recruiter jump from paper to your full profile, recommendations, and portfolio.
• Email signatures. Add the code as an image so every message doubles as a connection invitation.
• Networking events. On a name badge or lanyard, the code replaces the awkward how-do-you-spell-that moment. Networking is a core part of building a personal brand on LinkedIn, and a QR code lowers the friction of every hello.
• Slide decks and presentations. End a talk with a slide that has your code so the room can follow you before they scatter.
• Print marketing. Brochures, flyers, posters, and trade-show banners all become a route to your profile.

You need your profile URL before you can generate a code. Here is the fastest way to get it:

1. On desktop, open your profile and copy the address in the browser bar. It looks like linkedin.com/in/your-name.
2. On mobile, tap your profile photo, open your profile, tap the three-dot menu, and choose Share profile or Copy link.
3. Clean it up. Go to Settings, then Edit public profile and URL, and set a custom URL (for example linkedin.com/in/janvanmusscher). A short, readable URL produces a simpler QR code that scans faster.

Paste that URL into the generator above, and you are done. If you run a company page or group, the same steps work. Just copy the URL of that page instead.

Yes. Paste your company page URL (it looks like linkedin.com/company/your-company) into the generator above and download the code. School pages and groups work the same way. Put it on booth banners, event slides, brochures, or flyers so visitors can follow the page on the spot, and read our LinkedIn company page best practices to make sure it is worth following when they land.

The same code earns its keep differently depending on who you are and what you want from the scan:

Job seekers get the most mileage when the profile behind the code is dialed in. Before you print anything, tighten your tagline with our LinkedIn headline examples so the first thing a scanner reads sells you in one line.
