Questions
What number format does it need?+
International format without spaces or a leading plus sign, for example 919876543210 for an Indian number. The generator strips everything else.
Does it work with WhatsApp Business?+
Yes. wa.me links open whichever WhatsApp app is installed, including Business.
Can I track how many people scanned it?+
Not with a static code. Make it a free AriaQR dynamic code instead and every scan is counted, with the same WhatsApp destination.
Can the pre-filled message contain emoji?+
Yes. Emoji and most languages are encoded correctly into the link.
