How it works
The code stores a Maps search for your address — the same as a customer typing it in, minus the typing. When someone scans it, Maps opens on your location with directions ready. No app beyond Maps, which every phone already has.
- Enter your address the way a visitor would look for it.
- Optional: add your logo, pick a pattern style and match the colors to your brand.
- Download a PNG for screens or an SVG for your print shop.
Where businesses put theirs
- Business cards: your address becomes a working route, not fine print.
- Event posters: pair it with a calendar code — where and when, one scan each.
- Directory boards and flyers: “Find us” beats a typed address nobody re-enters correctly.
- Delivery and pickup windows: a scan takes the driver straight to the right door.
Good to know
- Print it big enough for the street. A sign scanned from across a sidewalk needs a bigger code than a card — the size calculator gives the number.
- Address codes don't expire. The Maps link is standard and permanent — print it once and it keeps working. If you move, generate a new one.
- Keep the quiet zone. The white border is part of the code; don't crop it, tint it, or run text into it.
Common questions
What does a location QR code do when scanned?
It opens Google Maps centered on your address, ready for directions. The customer doesn't type, search, or squint at a printed address — one scan and the route is on their screen.
Is this location QR code generator free?
Yes. No signup, no account, no watermark. The code is generated in your browser, and the PNG and SVG downloads are yours to use anywhere.
What should I put in the address field?
Whatever a person would type into Maps — a full street address works best. Landmarks and place names work too ('Springfield Farmers Market'), but a street address is the most reliable.
Does it open directions or just show the pin?
It opens Maps on your location with the route one tap away — which is exactly the moment you want to capture: standing on a sidewalk deciding whether to come.
Can I add my logo to the code?
Yes. Upload your logo and it appears in the center of the code; error correction is raised to its highest level (30%) to keep it scannable. You can also pick a pattern style and shape the corner eyes to match your brand.
More than a code
Profit can build the whole campaign
A directions code is one asset. Tell Profit what you’re promoting and it drafts the full set — a short video, social captions, a flyer, an email and more, all sharing the same message.
