Crypto QR Code (Bitcoin and Altcoins)

Scanning opens a wallet with your address and, if you set one, the amount already filled in.

What it does: encodes a cryptocurrency address as a payment URI. The sender's wallet opens with the address pre-filled, which removes the risk of a mistyped character.

Crypto addresses are long, case-sensitive and unforgiving. One wrong character sends funds somewhere unrecoverable. A QR code removes that failure mode entirely by carrying the address into the wallet automatically.

You can optionally include an amount, which turns the code into a simple invoice. Support varies by wallet, so if the amount matters to you, test it before printing.

Frequently asked questions

Which cryptocurrencies are supported?

Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Litecoin and Dash.

Is it safe to show my address publicly?

Yes. A public address is designed to receive funds. Never share the private key or seed phrase, which is different and must stay secret.

Can I set a fixed amount?

Yes, optionally. Wallet support varies, so test before relying on it for invoicing.

Does it work with exchange wallets?

Usually yes for the major coins, but some exchanges do not honour payment URIs. A plain address QR code is the safer choice if you are unsure.

Does the code expire?

No. It contains the address directly and has no expiry.
