A Bitcoin QR code encodes your BTC wallet address so anyone can send you Bitcoin by scanning. Optionally include an amount and label. Create one at QRMax.

What It Does

The QR encodes a bitcoin: URI containing your wallet address and optional parameters (amount, label, message). Scanning opens the user's Bitcoin wallet app with the payment pre-filled.

Common Use Cases

Use CaseExample

DonationsTip jars and charity collection
InvoicesInclude a BTC payment QR on invoices
Freelancer paymentsShare payment QR with clients
P2P transfersQuick personal Bitcoin transfers

How to Create a Bitcoin QR Code

  1. Choose "Bitcoin" type — Open QRMax and select Bitcoin payment.
  2. Enter wallet details — Paste your Bitcoin address and optionally set an amount and label.
  3. Customize & download — Add Bitcoin branding or your own colors, then export.

Practical Tips

  • Double-check the address — Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. Verify every character of your wallet address.
  • Specify the amount — Pre-filling the payment amount reduces errors and speeds up transactions.
  • Use a fresh address for privacy — Generate a new receiving address for each transaction when possible.

Which Bitcoin wallets support QR scanning?

All major Bitcoin wallets (including Bitcoin Core, BlueWallet, Electrum, and Muun) support scanning bitcoin: URI QR codes.

Can I include the payment amount?

Yes. The BIP-21 URI standard lets you include amount, label, and message fields. QRMax supports all of these.

Is this secure?

The QR code only contains your receiving address — it cannot be used to steal funds. The sender must authorize the transaction from their own wallet.
