Facebook
Where to find it. Open your page or profile, tap the three dots and copy the link. A custom username (facebook.com/yourpage) makes a shorter, calmer code.
Watch out. Personal profiles with privacy limits show less to people who are not friends. A public page is better for businesses.

T
TikTok
Where to find it. In the app open Profile, then Share profile. The username is the part after the @.
Watch out. Type the name without the @; the generator adds it. Short links from the app (vm.tiktok.com) also work.

X
X (Twitter)
Where to find it. Your handle is shown under your name on your profile. Paste it with or without the @.
Watch out. Old twitter.com links still redirect, but a code with x.com is the safer choice for print.

LinkedIn
Where to find it. On your profile choose Contact info and copy the public profile URL. A custom URL is shorter and scans better.
Watch out. For a company page paste the full link (linkedin.com/company/...); the handle shortcut builds /in/ personal links.

P
Pinterest
Where to find it. Your username is in the address of your profile page. Boards have their own links.
Watch out. Link to a board rather than the whole profile if the print is about one theme.

S
Snapchat
Where to find it. Your username is under your name on your profile. The code opens the add-friend page.
Watch out. Snapchat also has its own Snapcode, which only works inside the app. This one works from any camera.

T
Twitch
Where to find it. Your channel name is the last part of your channel address.
Watch out. Put the code on overlays and merch, and make it large: viewers often scan from a few metres on a screen.

GH
GitHub
Where to find it. Your username is in the address of your profile. A repository link also works: paste the full URL.
Watch out. Great on conference slides and posters. Link to one repository when the print is about one project.

D
Discord
Where to find it. Create an invite from the server's menu and set it to never expire. Paste the invite link.
Watch out. Invites that expire after a day are the most common problem. Choose never-expiring, and check the member limit.

T
Telegram
Where to find it. Your username is in Settings. For a channel or a group use its public t.me link.
Watch out. Without a public username Telegram cannot make a link: set one in Settings first.
Make a Telegram code ↑
M
Messenger
Where to find it. Use your page username. The code starts a chat with the page.
Watch out. It opens a conversation, not the page. Make sure messages are turned on for the page.

S
Slack
Where to find it. Copy an invite link from your workspace (Invite people, then Copy invite link).
Watch out. Invite links can expire or be limited. Check the setting in your admin console before printing.
