We outlined the steps to create a QR code for Venmo when using the app where it’s only available since you can't use any free QR code generator to do this.
You can’t use any QR code generator software because it will defeat the code’s function of receiving payment. If you use a QR code software, the payment won’t go to your account. Check it out below.
Download the Venmo app
If you don’t have the app yet, download the Venmo app on your smartphone, this will serve as your Venmo QR code generator. It’s available for both iOS and Android devices.
Sign in to your account
Once you open the app, sign in to your Venmo account. You’ll need to create one if you don’t have an account yet to proceed with the Venmo login.
Access your Venmo profile
After that, tap on the Profile icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. Then tap on the QR Code button. After tapping this, you can get your own QR code.
Save the QR code in your device
You’ll see your Venmo QR code on the screen. You can save this to your device’s camera roll or take screenshots.
Saving your QR code on your gallery will save you from the hassle of re-opening the Venmo app over and over again.
Share the QR code
You can now share your QR code with others. You can print and display it at your business or share it with friends and family.
When someone scans your QR code, it’ll take them directly to your Venmo profile, where they can quickly and easily send you money.
It’s a simple process that can make receiving payments through Venmo even more convenient.
