QR code for LinkedIn

Share your LinkedIn profile with one scan from a business card, a conference badge or the last slide of a deck. LinkedIn's in-app QR code only works for people who are already inside the app; a standard code created here is read by any phone camera.

  • Personal profile, company page or a specific post or article
  • Vector SVG for business cards, badges and printed decks
  • Pair with a vCard code so people get your contact details too
  • Dynamic option to measure which event produced the most scans

No credit card to generate. Vector export and saved codes need a free account.

Get a clean profile URL first

Set your custom LinkedIn URL (linkedin.com/in/your-name) before generating: the default URL carries a random suffix that makes the code denser than it needs to be. A short URL means fewer modules, larger squares and a code that still scans when printed at business-card size.

Cards, badges and decks

On a business card keep the code at 2 cm or more per side and leave a clear margin — do not bleed it into the edge. On conference badges, place it low enough to be scanned without asking someone to lean in. On slides, put it on the closing frame at 15% of slide height, which is comfortably scannable from mid-room.

Questions, answered

Should I use LinkedIn's own QR code instead?
LinkedIn's code is designed to be scanned inside the LinkedIn app. For print, a standard QR code with your profile URL works from any camera and can be styled to match your brand.
Can a LinkedIn QR code go on a CV?
Yes, and it is useful: it gives a recruiter your full profile from a printed page. Place it in the header near your contact details and keep it at least 2 cm per side.
Is a LinkedIn QR code free?
Yes. It is a URL code, so it is free, unlimited and watermark-free. You only need a paid plan if you want the code to stay editable and tracked.
