Overview

What is a Google Maps QR code?

A Google Maps QR code opens a location in Google Maps when it is scanned. From there people can start navigation, see opening hours and photos, or save the place. It is the easiest way to guide guests to a wedding venue, customers to a new shop, or visitors to a specific entrance on a large site.

You can create it from a plain address, a place name, or any Google Maps link — including the link to your Business Profile, which shows your reviews and opening hours too. Phones with Google Maps installed open the app; iPhones without it open Maps in the browser, where directions still work.

Use cases

Where a location code helps

Anywhere people need to find a place, a scan is faster than an address.

Invitations and events

Weddings, parties and conferences put the venue on the invitation so guests navigate in one tap.

Flyers and shop signs

New shops and restaurants guide customers from a flyer straight to the door.

Rentals and real estate

Hosts and agents share the exact entrance or parking spot, not just the street.

Business cards

Add your office location so visitors find you without calling for directions.

Large sites and campuses

Point to a specific gate, building or meeting point on signs around the site.

Delivery and pickup notes

Couriers and customers find the pickup point quickly when the code is on the order note.

How it works

How to create a QR code for a Google Maps location

Use an address, a place name or a link copied from Google Maps.

  1. 1

    Find the place

    Search the place in Google Maps, tap Share and copy the link. Or simply type the full address or business name into the generator.

  2. 2

    Paste and style

    Paste the link or address, add a map-pin icon or your logo and a frame like “Get directions”. Watch the scan score.

  3. 3

    Download and test

    Download PNG or SVG/PDF. Scan it once to check that Maps opens on the right spot before printing invitations.

Best practices

Tips for accurate directions

A wrong pin sends people to the wrong door. Check these first.

  • Prefer a shared Maps link

    A link copied from Maps points to the exact place. A typed address is searched and may match a similar name nearby.

  • Drop a pin for entrances

    Long-press the exact spot in Maps, share that dropped pin and use its link for side entrances or parking.

  • Use your Business Profile

    Linking to your business listing also shows hours, photos and reviews, which builds trust.

  • Add the address as text too

    Print the written address under the code for people who prefer a different map app or whose phone has no data. The code is the shortcut, the text is the backup.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I create a Google Maps QR code?

Copy a link from Google Maps (Share › Copy link) or type an address, choose Google Maps in the generator above and download your Google Maps QR code. It is free and needs no account.

How do I get a code for my location on Google Maps?

In Google Maps search or tap your location, choose Share, copy the link and paste it into the generator. Your code opens that place for anyone who scans it.

Can Google Maps generate a code itself?

Google Maps does not show a code in its share menu, although Chrome can make a basic one for any page. Our generator adds colors, logos, frames and vector downloads.

How do I share my business location?

Search your business name in Maps, open the listing, tap Share and copy the link. Using the listing link also shows reviews and opening hours.

Does the code start navigation?

It opens the place in Google Maps with a Directions button. One more tap starts turn-by-turn navigation from the person’s current location.

Does it work on iPhone?

Yes. With the Google Maps app installed it opens there; otherwise it opens Google Maps in Safari, where people can still get directions or switch to Apple Maps.

Can I link to exact coordinates?

Yes. Drop a pin in Google Maps by long-pressing, then share it, or type coordinates such as 40.7580, -73.9855 into the generator.

Is the location code free?

Yes. Static codes are free forever with no watermark or scan limit. Dynamic codes with editing and statistics need a free account.

Can I change the location after printing?

With a dynamic code you can redirect it to a new address — useful if an event moves venue after the invitations are printed.

Does the code expire?

A static code never expires as long as the place or link still exists on Google Maps. Dynamic codes work while your account is active.

Can I put a map pin in the middle of the code?

Yes. Pick a location icon or the Google Maps icon in the Logo tab, or upload your own logo, and keep the scan score green.

Can I share a whole route instead of one place?

Yes. Plan the route in Google Maps, copy the share link and paste it. Scanners open the same route with all stops.
