Question 1

How does a Discord QR code work?

Accepted Answer

The QR code encodes your Discord invite link (discord.gg/code). When scanned, it opens Discord to your server invite page where users can join.

Question 2

Should I use a permanent invite link?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Set your Discord invite to 'Never expire' so the QR code keeps working. If the invite expires, the QR code will lead to an invalid page.

Question 3

Will it open the Discord app?

Accepted Answer

On devices with Discord installed, the link opens in the app. Otherwise, it opens in the browser.

Question 4

Where should I put a Discord QR code?

Accepted Answer

Gaming event booths, Twitch stream overlays (printed for IRL streams), merch inserts, club flyers, and community posters.

Question 5

Is this free?
