What is a Email QR code?
An email QR code opens a new message with the address, and optionally the subject and body, already filled in. The person just adds anything else and hits send.
It saves people from typing your address by hand, which cuts mistakes and gets more replies. It is a natural fit for support desks, feedback requests, and any print material where you want a quick way to be contacted.
What an email QR code includes
- Recipient address
- The email address the message will be sent to.
