LinkedIn QR Code Generator

At networking events, 'let's connect' usually means awkwardly spelling a name into the LinkedIn search bar. A LinkedIn QR code on your badge, business card or CV sends people straight to your profile. Recruiters can use the same code on job flyers pointing at a company page. QRPebble accepts profile URLs containing /in/ and company pages containing /company/, and rejects anything else, so you won't accidentally encode a feed post or a search results page. Set a custom public profile URL in LinkedIn first; a clean address like /in/jordan-lee is shorter than the default and gives a simpler, easier-to-scan code.

Static code: the data is encoded directly, so it never expires and is not tracked. Need to change the link after printing or count scans? Create a free dynamic code.

How to make it

  1. On LinkedIn, open your profile or company page and copy the address from the browser or the Share menu.
  2. Paste it into the LinkedIn profile or company URL field.
  3. Check the preview link contains /in/ or /company/.
  4. Download and add the code to your card, badge or CV layout.

What gets encoded

The code stores your LinkedIn URL as entered, for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/jane-doe, after making sure it uses https. Phones open it like any link. With the LinkedIn app installed, most phones hand it to the app, where the Connect button is one tap away; otherwise it opens in the browser, where LinkedIn may ask the visitor to sign in to see the full profile. Customising your public profile URL in LinkedIn settings gives a shorter link and a less dense code.

Where people use it

  • Business cards and conference badges
  • Printed CVs and portfolios
  • Recruiting flyers linking to a company page
  • Email signature images

Tips before you print

  • Set a custom public profile URL in LinkedIn first; the shorter link makes a simpler pattern.
  • On a CV, 2 cm is plenty because the reader holds it close.
  • Remove query strings such as ?trk= from pasted links.
  • If you might switch between profile and company page later, make the code dynamic.

FAQ

Can I link to a LinkedIn post or article?

This tool accepts profile (/in/) and company (/company/) URLs only. For a post, use the URL QR code generator.

Do people need LinkedIn to view it?

They can open it without the app, but LinkedIn may ask them to sign in to see the full profile.

Where do I find my profile URL?

On your profile, open 'Edit public profile & URL' in LinkedIn; the address is shown there.
