How do I make a QR code to share a telephone number?

You may have colleagues who want to share a phone number easily with customers or want to create a call to action in an ad to call a telephone number.

In Uplifter you can create a branded QR code, which when scanned will open a telephone number so the user can call or save that number quickly. This can save the user time typing out the number - removing friction in the journey.

If you want the user to save the number with other details like name, we recommend creating a vCard (Contact QR code).

How to create a QR code to share a phone number

1. Go to Track > Create links page

2. In One or multiple tab, click on 'Phone' radio button

3. Enter the telephone number

4. (Optional) Customise the QR code with branding and images as required.

5. Click on 'Create Contact' button

6. Click on 'Download' button

7. Scan your QR code to test it works (before you print it!)

Limitations

We do not save any contact details in Uplifter to protect users PII. This means you will need to download the QR code and keep it safe on your device once created or recreate it again if you need it in the future.

We can't currently track QR code scans / clickthrough's on downloaded contacts due to limitations of vCards.
