Make a QR code that opens a ready-to-send text message with the number and message pre-filled - enter the details, download the code, and print it. Static and free forever, no account.

## What the video covers

1. **Enter the phone number**  - Type the number the text should go to. Start with a plus and country code (like +1) if any of your audience is international.
2. **Write the pre-filled message (optional)**  - Add a short ready-to-send message - a keyword like 'JOIN' or 'MENU' works well for opt-ins - or leave it blank for a plain draft.
3. **Download the QR code**  - Download as PNG, JPG, or SVG. SVG stays crisp on table tents, posters, and receipts at any size.
4. **Scan-test before printing**  - For safety, phones never send automatically - the person taps send. Scan-test on an iPhone and an Android to confirm the draft opens correctly.
