# Phone number QR code

> Enter a phone number and you get a QR code that offers to call it when scanned. It's handy on signs, vehicles and flyers where people would otherwise have to type the number.

## How to use it
1. Type the number with its country code, like +1 415 555 0123. Spaces and dashes are removed for you.
2. Download the code and add it to your sign, truck wrap or flyer.
3. Scan it with your own phone first to make sure it dials the right number.

## Phone codes vs contact cards
A phone code just dials. If you want people to save your number with your name, email and website, use a contact card (vCard) code instead. It's one scan to save everything.

## Good places for a call code
- Service vans and yard signs: "Scan to call for a free quote"
- Lost-pet tags and luggage labels
- Emergency contact stickers on equipment
- Print ads where a tap is easier than typing ten digits

## FAQ
### Will scanning call the number straight away?
No. Phones show the number and ask before calling.

### Should I include the country code?
Yes. With +1 (or your country's code) the code works for visitors with foreign phones too.
