How to Generate QR Codes on Squarespace (And Why Your Business Should Use Them)
A quick and easy way to connect the real world to your digital presence—right from your Squarespace dashboard.
Why QR Codes Are Worth Your Time
QR codes aren’t just for restaurant menus anymore. They’re a powerful (and now beautifully simple) way to bridge the gap between your offline and online brand. With Squarespace’s built-in QR code feature, you can generate custom codes that link directly to any page on your website—no third-party tools required.
Whether you’re running a pop-up, hosting an event, or just want an easy way for people to access your booking form, this new feature is worth taking advantage of.
Step-by-Step: How to Generate a QR Code on Squarespace
Here’s how to get started:
Log into your Squarespace site and head to the Pages section.
Find the page you want to link to (e.g. your contact form, digital menu, gallery, RSVP page, etc).
Hover over the page name and click the gear icon (⚙️) to open Page Settings.
Copy the page URL from the Page Settings panel.
Now, navigate to Settings > Website Tools > QR Code Generator (yep—it’s quietly tucked in there).
Paste the URL into the QR code generator.
Hit Generate, and boom—your QR code is ready.
Download the image and use it on anything from packaging and signage to business cards or digital invites.
Pro Tip: If you ever update the URL structure of your site, make sure to regenerate the QR code with the new link!
