Page vs. profile vs. group
For a business, link your Page (facebook.com/YourPage) — Pages have no friend cap, show Like/Follow, and feed insights. Personal profiles work too; for a community, use the group's URL or invite link.
On a phone with the Facebook app installed, the code opens in-app; otherwise it opens in the browser — both land on the same page, so your printed code works everywhere.
Good places for a Facebook code
- Storefront windows and counters
- Event flyers and community boards
- Print ads and menus
Frequently asked questions
Should I link my Page or my personal profile?
Use your Page for anything business — it scales past the 5,000-friend limit and gives you follower analytics. Link a personal profile only for genuinely personal sharing.
Can I link to a group or event?
Yes — paste any public Facebook URL: a page, group, or event. Scanning opens it directly.
Is it free?
Yes. Static codes are free forever. Add the trackable option only if you want editing and scan analytics.
