People support a cause when they feel inspired, but that feeling fades fast if giving is complicated. A QR code on your appeal links straight to a donation form, a volunteer signup or your story, so supporters can act on the spot. It also works on printed materials where typing a long web address would lose most people.

For nonprofits, start with a stable link or fixed details people will understand at a glance. The QR code you create here does not expire and does not add tracking from us.

Why it works

Capture the moment of generosity

A scan takes a willing supporter straight to your donation page while they still feel inspired to give.

Collect cashless donations

Add a code to collection boxes and banners so people can give even when they are not carrying cash.

Grow your volunteer list

Link to a short signup form so anyone who wants to help can join your team in seconds.

Free and low-cost to run

There is no signup or fee to create a code, which keeps more of every donation working for your cause.
