LinkedIn QR Code Generator
Paste a profile URL, pick a size, download the PNG. Nothing leaves your browser.
There are two ways to get a LinkedIn QR code, and they solve different problems. LinkedIn's mobile app has one built in: tap the QR icon beside the search bar and the app shows a code for your own profile plus a scanner for other people's. That code lives inside the app, which means it cannot go on a slide, a conference badge, a poster or an email signature. This generator covers the second way. Paste any profile or company URL, pick a size, and it draws a downloadable PNG right here in your browser, with nothing uploaded and nothing stored.
Paste your LinkedIn profile URL above and the code appears here.
What the code carries: the URL printed under it, and nothing else. There is no shortener and no tracking wrapper in the middle, so it keeps working for as long as that profile exists. The code is drawn by your own browser, so nothing you paste here is uploaded or stored.
Where a LinkedIn QR code actually earns its keep
- Print it at 320 pixels or larger for anything scanned from arm's length, and larger still for a banner someone reads from across a room.
- Put the code where a hand is already holding a phone: the last slide of a talk, a conference badge, a business card, a trade show banner, the footer of an email signature.
- Always print your name or handle beside the code. A bare black square gives nobody a reason to lift their phone and point it at you.
- Test the printed version with two different phones before you order five hundred of anything. Toner density, laminate and glossy stock all cost you scans.
- Point it at your public profile URL rather than a temporary link. A custom LinkedIn URL stays yours through a job change, so last year's badge still works.
- Skip the QR code entirely on a screen the reader can click. A plain hyperlink beats a code nobody can scan through their own monitor.
Example output
Profile URL and size: linkedin.com/in/priteshmann pasted in, size set to Large 480px for a conference poster
ENCODED URL https://www.linkedin.com/in/priteshmann WHAT THE WIDGET DRAWS A 480 by 480 pixel black-on-white QR code with a two module quiet zone, rendered onto a canvas element by JavaScript running on your own machine. The normalized URL prints under the code so you can read exactly what it carries before anyone scans it. WHAT YOU DOWNLOAD linkedin-qr.png at the size you picked, with no shortener and no tracking wrapper in the middle. Drop it straight into Keynote, Canva, a badge template, or the image slot of an email signature. WHAT GETS REFUSED A feed link, a search results page or a plain sentence of text all return a friendly message instead of a code, because a QR pointing at the wrong page is worse than no QR at all. (Example description. The live widget above draws your own code and hands you the PNG.)
Frequently asked questions
- How do I get my LinkedIn QR code?
- Two routes, depending on where the code needs to live. In the LinkedIn mobile app, tap the QR icon beside the search bar: you get a scannable code for your own profile and a scanner for other people's, both of which only work inside the app. For anything printed or embedded, paste your profile URL into the generator above and download the PNG.
- Where do people actually use LinkedIn QR codes?
- Conference badges and lanyards, the closing slide of a talk, the back of a business card, trade show banners, a speaker introduction slide, and the image slot in an email signature. The common thread is a moment where someone is standing in front of you holding a phone, and typing your name into search would lose them to the four other people with the same name.
- Does this upload my profile anywhere?
- No. The code is generated entirely in your browser by a JavaScript library running on your machine. Nothing you paste is sent to a server, logged, or stored anywhere, and the PNG download is produced by your own browser from the canvas drawn on this page. Close the tab and nothing of it survives.
- Will the printed code still work after I change jobs?
- Yes, as long as it points at your profile URL rather than a temporary or session link. Your custom LinkedIn URL belongs to you and follows you between employers, so a code printed on a badge last year still lands on the current version of your profile. The only thing that breaks it is changing the custom URL itself.
- Why is this free, and what's the catch?
- No catch and no signup. This tool is funded by EaseClaw, an AI agent that finds warm buyers on LinkedIn, reaches out for you and books the meetings. If the free tool is useful, some people try the free trial. That's the whole business model.
