TikTok QR code for your profile or a video
Paste your profile or a single video. A scan opens TikTok on that page, where the follow button is one tap away.
A TikTok QR code opens your TikTok profile or one video when someone scans it. Copy the link from the Share button in the app, or write tiktok.com/@ followed by your handle, and paste it below. Phones with TikTok open the app, others the browser. A video link on packaging shows how a product works in seconds.
Scan the box, watch the clip
A code on the pack plays your how-to video, with Follow one tap away.

How to make a TikTok QR code
Decide: profile or one video
A profile collects followers over time. A single video works better on packaging or a stand, where people want to see one thing right now.
Copy the link from Share
In the app, tap Share and Copy link. The short link works, and so does the full tiktok.com address.
Add a caption that promises something
Watch how it works or See the recipe gets more scans than a bare logo.
Test on a phone without TikTok
The browser view shows what someone without the app sees. It should still play the video.
Fixed or editable for TikTok?
-
Fixed QR code (static)
A profile address only changes with your handle, so a fixed code is fine for profile codes. It is free and works for as long as the profile exists.
-
Editable QR code (dynamic)
Videos come and go. If the code points at a video, an editable code lets you swap in a newer clip without reprinting the packaging, and shows how many people scanned. From $9 a month or a pass from $12.
Where TikTok codes work
Product packaging
A code that opens a 30-second demo answers the question people have when they pick the product up.
Pop-up shops and stands
Visitors who enjoyed the stand follow you before they walk away, instead of trying to remember the name.
Merch and stickers
Creators put the code on stickers and tees so fans can find the account from a photo.
Restaurant tables
A code to the kitchen's account turns waiting time into views of the dishes being made.
Print tips for TikTok codes
Keep the link short
Remove tracking parameters after the question mark when you can. A shorter link makes a smaller, easier code.
High contrast beats brand colours
TikTok's own colours are bright on black. A code works best dark on light, so keep the brand colours in the frame, not the squares.
Size for packaging
On a box held in the hand, 2.5 to 3 cm is comfortable. On a shelf, read from 1 m, plan about 14 cm.
Questions and answers
Before you print
- Is it free?
- Fixed codes are free: make as many as you like, download a PNG with no sign-up, and get every other format and print files with a free account. Editable codes come with a plan, a pass, Keep-alive or the 14-day trial.
- Can I change the link after printing?
- Yes, with an editable code. It holds a short link you control, so you can point the printed code somewhere new any time, and the next scan opens the new page. A fixed code keeps the link it was made with.
- Can I use my own domain?
- Yes. A custom domain is included on passes, from Starter, and during the trial. Starter covers one subdomain, for example go.yourbrand.com, and apex domains start on Pro.
- What happens if I stop paying?
- Editable codes work to the end of your paid period, and after a failed payment every code keeps working for 14 days. Turn codes back on within 12 months. Fixed codes keep working as long as their links do.
Does TikTok have its own QR code?
Yes, the app can show a profile code, but in TikTok's own design. A code from the generator above opens the same profile and can carry your colours, a frame and a caption for print.
Can a QR code open a specific TikTok video?
Yes. Copy the video's link from Share and paste it in. The scan opens that video, in the app when installed or in the browser.
What if I delete the video later?
A fixed code would then open a missing video. Use an editable code for video links so you can point it at a newer clip.
Will the code work for people without TikTok?
Yes. Without the app, the link opens in the phone's browser, where the video plays and the profile can be viewed.
Can I change my handle and keep the code?
Not with a fixed code, which holds the old address. With an editable code you update the destination after renaming.
Is a TikTok QR code free?
Yes as a fixed code: download it in SVG, PNG, JPG, WebP, PDF and EPS without an account or a watermark.
