> Make a QR code that opens your Instagram profile. Free static code that never expires, or a dynamic code you can repoint to a campaign later.

Printed materials are where offline customers become followers. A QR code that opens your Instagram profile turns packaging, flyers and shop windows into follow buttons.

## Steps

1. Copy your profile link (instagram.com/yourname).
2. Paste it into the generator and style the code with your brand colour, keeping strong contrast.
3. Add a short call to action next to it: 'Follow for new drops'.

**Recommended size:** 25 mm on packaging, 50 mm or more on posters.

## Tips

- If you run seasonal campaigns, use a dynamic code so the same print can point at a new post or landing page.

## Common mistakes

- Colouring the code in a light brand colour on a white background. Contrast matters more than branding.

## Frequently asked questions

### Doesn't Instagram have its own QR code?

It does, but it can only open your profile and uses Instagram's design. A standard QR code works with any camera app and can be printed as vector artwork at any size.
