Can I use a QR code instead of the LinkedIn QR code in the app?

Yes. LinkedIn has a built-in QR code in the app, but it's not customisable and disappears if you change your URL. QRLifetime lets you create a branded QR code with your logo and colours that permanently links to your profile URL.

Q: Where do I find my LinkedIn profile URL?

On desktop: open your LinkedIn profile, click "Edit public profile & URL" (top right), and copy the URL from the "Edit your custom URL" section. It looks like linkedin.com/in/yourname. On mobile: go to your profile → three dots → View in browser, then copy the URL.

Q: Does the LinkedIn QR code expire?

No. QRLifetime creates static QR codes encoded directly into the image. They never expire and require no subscription.

Add a QR code to your business card, conference badge, or presentation slides. Scan once — connect on LinkedIn instantly. No searching for names, no typos, no fumbling.

How to create a LinkedIn QR code

Go to your LinkedIn profile and copy your public profile URL (e.g. https://linkedin.com/in/yourname)
To find it: click your profile picture → click your name at the top → copy the URL from the browser address bar
Paste it into the generator above and choose your colour scheme (LinkedIn blue: #0A66C2)
Download as SVG for business card printing at any size, or PNG for digital use

Tip: Use your vanity URL if you have one (linkedin.com/in/firstname-lastname) — it's shorter, cleaner, and produces a simpler QR code that scans faster.

Best places to use your LinkedIn QR code

💼

Business cards

The killer use case: add it to the back of your card. Contacts scan and connect on LinkedIn before you finish shaking hands.

🎤

Conference badges

Print your LinkedIn QR on your name badge at events and conferences. Faster and more reliable than NFC tapping.

📧

Email signature

Add a small QR image to your email footer with a "Connect on LinkedIn" label for digital recipients to scan from their phone.

🖥️

Presentation slides

Add to the last slide of a pitch or webinar so the audience can connect with you directly without googling your name.

LinkedIn QR code vs. vCard QR code on a business card

Many professionals put two QR codes on their business cards: a vCard QR code on the front (saves contact to phone with one tap) and a LinkedIn QR code on the back (connects on LinkedIn).

Which should you prioritise? The vCard QR saves the contact directly to the recipient's address book — more reliable, works offline, and universal. LinkedIn requires the app or a browser session. Use both if you have space, or choose based on your primary goal: stay in someone's address book (vCard) or build your LinkedIn network (LinkedIn QR).

Frequently asked questions

Where do I find my LinkedIn profile URL?

On desktop: open your profile → click "Edit public profile & URL" (top right) → copy the URL from the "Edit your custom URL" box. Looks like linkedin.com/in/yourname. On mobile: tap your photo → tap your name → tap the three-dot menu → "View in Browser" → copy URL.

Does the LinkedIn QR code expire?

No. QRLifetime generates static QR codes baked directly into the image file. They never expire and need no ongoing subscription.

Can I use this instead of LinkedIn's built-in QR code?

Yes. LinkedIn has a built-in QR code in the app, but it's not customisable and is tied to the app session. QRLifetime lets you create a fully branded QR with your logo and colours that links permanently to your public profile URL.

What LinkedIn URL should I use — personal profile or company page?

Use your personal profile (linkedin.com/in/yourname) for networking. Use your company page URL (linkedin.com/company/yourcompany) for trade fair stands, marketing materials, or when you want people to follow the business rather than you personally.
