How to Create Custom Business Card QR Codes in GoHighLevel

If you use tools like ClickUp to organize workflows and you also manage client engagement inside GoHighLevel, creating custom business card QR codes is an efficient way to share contact details, booking links, and user profiles in seconds. This guide walks you step by step through building, styling, and downloading QR codes so your printed or digital business cards are always on-brand.

Using QR codes on business cards helps leads instantly access funnels, calendars, or profiles without having to type URLs. Inside the CRM, you can design these codes visually, change colors and shapes, and then export them as high-resolution images for print or digital use.

Where to Find QR Codes in GoHighLevel

You can create and manage business card QR codes directly in the funnel and website builder inside GoHighLevel. The QR element lives in the same section as buttons, forms, and other visual components.

To open the builder:

Log in to your agency or sub-account dashboard.
Open the Sites or Funnels area for the account where you want the QR code to appear.
Edit an existing page or create a new one to host the business card layout or card-style section.

Once the page editor loads, you are ready to add the QR element that will generate the unique code.

Adding a GoHighLevel QR Code Element

The QR feature is available as a drag-and-drop element you can place anywhere on your page or digital business card layout.

In the left sidebar of the builder, locate the QR Code element.
Drag the QR Code element into your page section, column, or row.
Drop it where you want the QR graphic to appear on your business card design.

After placing the element, you will see a default QR code that you can configure in the settings panel on the right-hand side of the editor.

Configuring Business Card QR Codes in GoHighLevel

The QR element in GoHighLevel supports multiple link types, allowing you to connect the code to different profile or booking experiences. Each type is optimized to pull or open specific information.

GoHighLevel QR Type: Contact

The Contact QR type lets you encode a specific contact record. When someone scans this code:

They are redirected to the contact record link.
You can use it internally to open an exact contact profile quickly.
It is useful for internal cards or team references rather than public cards.

To configure this option:

Select the QR element on the page.
In the settings panel, choose Contact as the type.
Pick the contact or contact field that should define the link.

GoHighLevel QR Type: Calendar

The Calendar QR type is ideal for business cards that promote booking calls or appointments.

When a lead scans this QR code:

The booking page for your chosen calendar opens.
They can select a time and complete the appointment form on mobile.
No typing is required, making this perfect for networking events.

To configure the calendar option:

Select the QR code element.
Choose Calendar as the QR type.
Select the specific calendar from the dropdown list.

GoHighLevel QR Type: User Profile

The User Profile QR type is designed for individual team members who want a personalized digital card experience.

With this configuration:

Scanning the QR opens the associated user’s profile page.
You can route people to detailed contact, bio, or routing pages for that user.
It is useful for sales reps, account managers, or support specialists.

To set this up:

Click the QR element on your layout.
Select User Profile as the type.
Pick the user whose profile should display.

Customizing QR Design in GoHighLevel

After choosing the QR type, you can style the code to match your branding. The design options inside GoHighLevel include size, color, and shape controls.

Adjusting QR Size and Layout

Proper sizing ensures the code can be scanned clearly once printed or exported.

Use the Width and Height controls to resize the QR element.
Make sure there is enough white space around the edges for reliable scanning.
Test the size with a phone camera before finalizing your design.

Changing QR Colors and Styles in GoHighLevel

You can change the appearance of the QR code while keeping it fully scannable.

Set the Foreground color (the dark code pattern).
Set the Background color behind the pattern.
Adjust border radius or corner styling, if available, for a softer look.

Avoid extremely low contrast, such as a very light foreground on a light background, because scanners may fail to read the code correctly.

Adding Logos or Icons to Your QR

In many layouts, you may also include a logo or icon near the QR code to clarify what will happen when it is scanned, such as “Book a Call” or “Visit My Profile.” While the QR element itself is focused on the scannable code, you can position an image or text block next to it to reinforce the call to action.

Previewing and Testing Your GoHighLevel QR Code

Before you download or print the QR for business cards, always test it thoroughly.

Click Preview in the funnel or website builder.
Open the page in a new browser tab or on your phone.
Use multiple smartphones (and different camera apps) to scan the QR code.
Confirm that each scan opens the correct contact link, calendar, or user profile page.

If the QR is not scanning consistently, try increasing its size, improving color contrast, or adding more white space around the code in the layout.

Downloading Business Card QR Codes from GoHighLevel

Once your QR design is ready, capture a clean image for use on physical or digital cards printed outside of GoHighLevel.

The typical workflow is:

Save the page or funnel step.
Open the live URL of that page in your browser.
Use your browser’s screenshot or a design tool to capture the QR at high resolution.
Crop the screenshot so only the QR code (and any surrounding white space) remains.
Save it as a PNG for crisp printing.

You can then place this PNG inside third-party design tools, document templates, or card printing platforms.

Best Practices for Business Card QR Codes in GoHighLevel

To get the best performance from your QR-powered cards, keep these practices in mind:

Use clear calls to action: Add short text like “Scan to Book a Call” below the QR.
Choose the right type: Use Calendar for scheduling, User Profile for personal bios, and Contact for internal records.
Maintain strong contrast: Dark foreground on a light background works best.
Leave quiet space: Do not place text or graphics too close to the code edges.
Keep URLs stable: Avoid changing the destination pages frequently, so older cards keep working.
