How Do I Insert a QR Code in Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 4:04 pm

QR codes are those funny square barcodes that you see in magazines and on product packaging. They can be scanned by a smartphone camera and decoded to reveal text, contact information, or a URL. You may have seen QR codes used to provide a link to a website, or to download an app from the App Store or Google Play.

You can generate your own QR code for free using sites like QR Code Generator or goQR.me. Once you have your QR code, you can add it to your Canva design using one of the following methods.

Method 1: Add a QR code as an image

1.Open Canva and sign in or create a new account. 2.Click on the “+” icon in the left hand sidebar and select “Uploads” from the drop down menu. 3.Click on the “Upload Images” button in the center of the screen and select the QR code image file from your computer. 4.Once the image has been uploaded, drag it into place on your design canvas.

5.You can resize the image by clicking on it and then dragging the corner handles. Make sure that the entire QR code is visible and not cropped out of the image. Method 2: Add a QR code as an element

1.Click on the “+” icon in the left hand sidebar and select “Elements” from the drop down menu (this will open up the Elements library).

3.Scroll down to find the “QR codes” section near the bottom of the library and click on any of the QR code images to insert it into your design canvas.

Conclusion:

Adding a QR code to your Canva design is a quick and easy way to share information with your audience.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that there are fake websites and apps that claim to be Canva, which may trick you into sharing personal information or downloading malware. These websites and apps often use similar logos and branding to make them look like the real Canva website or app. To protect yourself, only visit https://www.canva.com/ and download the Canva app from the official App Store or Google Play Store. When creating an account, be sure to use a strong password that you don’t use for any other accounts.

There are two methods for adding a QR code to your design: you can upload an image of your QR code, or insert a ready-made QR code element from Canva’s library.

Making sure that your QR code is visible and not cropped out is important for ensuring that people can scan it successfully.
