TikTok QR code generator

Profile code or video code?

• Profile: type your username, like @yourname. The code opens tiktok.com/@yourname, your profile with all your videos. This is the safe default for packaging, shop windows and business cards, because it stays useful as you post.
• One video: tap Share on the video, then Copy link, and paste it. Good for a product demo on its box, a recipe on a menu, or a trailer on a poster. If the video is deleted or made private, the code leads nowhere.

The field accepts both. Anything with a slash in it is treated as a link and used exactly as you pasted it.

TikTok’s own code vs a standard code

TikTok’s in-app code is handy for sharing in person: open it, show your screen, done. For anything printed, a standard code has a few advantages:

• You choose the size and file. Download SVG for print, which stays sharp at any size, or PNG at up to 4096 pixels.
• It can open a single video, not just your profile.
• It matches your other codes. The same generator makes Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, X and LinkedIn codes in the same style.
• It is made for every camera. A standard black and white code is what phone cameras are built to read.

Where a TikTok code works

• Product packaging and swing tags, opening the video that shows the product in use.
• Shop counters and windows: “Follow us for new drops.”
• Event stages and screens, between acts or at the end of a set.
• Business cards and merch, for creators.
• Restaurant tables, opening the video of the dish being made.

Always add a line saying what the code does. “Watch how it’s made” gets more scans than a bare code.

Make it scan every time

• Dark code on a light background. A light code on black fails on many phones.
• Leave the white border around the code. Do not crop it.
• If you add a logo, the generator raises error correction to High so the code still reads. The logo guide explains how big a logo can be.
• A profile link is about 33 characters, which makes a code 29 squares across. A video link is longer and makes a code of about 33 squares, so print video codes a little bigger.

Getting a clean link

A link copied from the TikTok app sometimes has extra tracking text after a ?. It still works, but it makes the code denser. You can usually delete everything from the ? onwards and the link still opens the same video. Test it in your browser first.

If TikTok gives you a short vm.tiktok.com link, that works too: it forwards to the full video address. It is TikTok’s own short link, so it keeps working as long as the video does.

For a profile, typing the username is cleanest. The generator removes the @ if you type it and builds the profile address for you.

Before you print

Scan the code with an iPhone and an Android phone, with and without TikTok installed if you can. Check it opens the right account, and that the video is public. Print it at least 2 cm (0.8 in) wide for close range, and much bigger for posters; the size guide has a chart. The code is static, so it never expires and does not depend on our site.
