Does a QR code contain the actual video?

No. A QR code stores a link (URL). When someone scans it, it opens your video page in the browser.

Which formats are supported?

MP4 and WebM are supported for upload.

What is the maximum upload size?

You can choose up to 800 MB, depending on the option you select.

Can I share the QR code on posters or social media?

Yes. Download or screenshot the QR code after you generate it, then place it on posters, presentations, or social posts so viewers can scan and watch instantly.

Why does the link expire after 15 days?

Temporary links help manage storage and privacy. If you need longer sharing, you can upload again and generate a new QR code.

What is a Video QR Code?

A video QR code is a scannable code that opens a web link (URL). After you upload your MP4 or WebM file, we generate a share page and a QR code that points to it. This is a reliable way to share video with QR because QR codes are designed to store links—not large media files.

How to make a QR code for a YouTube video

If your video is already on YouTube (or Vimeo/TikTok), copy the video URL and create a code using our QR Generator. If you have a video file (MP4/WebM), upload it above to generate a share page + QR code.

Best use cases

Events: share highlights, schedules, or recap clips on posters and badges.
Education: add quick video explanations to worksheets and handouts.
Marketing: connect print ads to product demos and tutorials.
Portfolios: share reels and case studies with a simple scan.

Tips for a reliable scan

Print with high contrast and enough quiet space around the code. Avoid busy backgrounds and test scan distance. Larger codes scan faster on posters and signage.
