How to make a location QR code

  1. Copy the coordinates

    In Google Maps on a computer, right-click the place and click the coordinates to copy them. On a phone, touch and hold the place until a pin drops.

  2. Paste latitude and longitude

    Paste the first number as latitude and the second as longitude. A comma or a dot as the decimal separator both work.

  3. Style, download and test

    Pick colors and a logo, download the code and scan it to make sure the pin lands on the right entrance before you print.

Location QR code questions

How do I find the coordinates of a place?

In Google Maps, right-click the place on a computer, or touch and hold it on a phone. The coordinates appear as two numbers, such as 48.858370, 2.294481.

What opens when someone scans the code?

The Google Maps app if it is installed, otherwise the map opens in the browser. Either way, the person can start directions from there.

Why a map link and not a geo: code?

The iPhone camera doesn’t open geo: codes, so half of your visitors would see nothing. A map link works on every phone.

How precise is the location?

Coordinates are kept to six decimal places, which is about 10 cm — enough to point at a specific door, gate or parking spot.
