One QR Code, Six Ways to Connect
A restaurant owner puts a QR code on every table. Customers scan it expecting a menu - but it opens the owner's website. A week later, they change it to WhatsApp for direct orders. Next month, it's a phone number for reservations. Same QR code. No reprinting. This is the power of the Website URL QR code.
It's our most versatile QR type because it's not just for websites. It handles six different link types - all from one dropdown.
Switch between website, phone, email, SMS, WhatsApp, or Telegram

You can switch between link types anytime without changing the QR code. Start with a website, switch to WhatsApp for a campaign, then back to website - same printed QR code works throughout.
