Free Reddit QR Code Generator

A Reddit QR code opens a subreddit or a Reddit user profile. Communities use it at meetups, on stickers and on posters to grow their subreddit; creators use it to point people to their profile. Subreddit links are short, so the codes stay simple enough to print on small stickers.

Enter a subreddit name or a username and QRdx builds the reddit.com link. It opens in the Reddit app when installed, or on Reddit's website otherwise.

How to create a Reddit QR code

  1. 1Enter a subreddit (with or without r/) or a username (with or without u/).
  2. 2Fill in only one of the two fields so the code points where you expect.
  3. 3Scan the preview to check that it opens the right community or profile.
  4. 4Download the code as PNG or SVG.

Reddit QR code format

Format

https://www.reddit.com/r/<subreddit>
https://www.reddit.com/user/<username>

Example

https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev
  • QRdx strips the r/ or u/ prefix if you type one.
  • Subreddit names and usernames can contain letters, numbers, underscores and hyphens.
  • To share a specific post, copy its link and use the URL generator.
  • Subreddit names are not case-sensitive, so r/WebDev and r/webdev open the same community.

Reddit QR code FAQ

Can I link a private subreddit?

Yes, but only approved members can see its posts after scanning.

Does it work without the Reddit app?

Yes. It opens reddit.com in the browser.

Can one code link a user and a subreddit?

No, a QR code has one destination. Make two codes if you need both.

Do people need a Reddit account?

Not to read public communities and profiles. Voting, commenting and joining a subreddit require logging in, and Reddit may suggest opening its app.
