Link viewers to channels, videos, and playlists with a red-branded, scannable code
The YouTube QR code template is a pre-configured design that combines YouTube’s red colour scheme with the play-button logo at the centre of an ISO 18004-compliant, scannable code. QR Code AI applies Reed-Solomon error correction to keep the code readable even with the embedded logo, and gives you 50+ customisation parameters, including 7 pixel styles and 7 marker shapes. Content creators, marketers, and businesses use this template on flyers, posters, product packaging, and business cards to send scanners to channels, individual videos, or playlists.
A YouTube QR code template is a pre-configured, scannable code design that builds YouTube’s red colour palette and play-button logo into an ISO 18004-compliant QR code. QR Code AI places the logo in the error-correction zone so the code stays scannable while linking to any YouTube URL, including a channel, video, playlist, or live stream. You can adjust 50+ parameters, then export as PNG, SVG, or WebP.
Creating a YouTube channel QR code in QR Code AI takes three steps: choose the YouTube logo template, paste your full channel URL or custom handle into the destination field, and customise the design using 7 pixel styles and 7 marker shapes. The QR code sends scanners to your channel page from any smartphone camera. Dynamic QR codes (on premium plans) let you change the destination after printing.
The YouTube QR code template works with any valid YouTube URL, including individual videos, playlists, live streams, Shorts, and channel pages. Content creators use these QR codes on flyers, posters, business cards, and product packaging to send scanners straight to a specific video. With QR Code AI’s dynamic QR code option, you can update the destination URL after printing, so you can rotate promos without reprinting.
QR Code AI includes the YouTube logo template on the free plan, with unlimited static QR code generation and basic customisation for colours, pixel styles, and marker shapes. Free-plan users can download PNG and SVG at full resolution. Premium plans unlock dynamic QR codes with editable URLs, scan analytics with location and device data, advanced visual effects, and WebP export.
QR Code AI exports YouTube QR codes in three formats: PNG for sharing on social media and websites, SVG for print items like posters and business cards that need lossless scaling, and WebP for optimised web use. SVG files are vector-based, so they stay sharp at any print size, from 2 cm stickers to large-format banners. All three formats are available on both the free and premium plans.
