How to Share Your Canva Website and Create a QR Code

Share the published website URL, not the editable Canva design link. Test the public link before sending it to guests.

Copy the correct website link

  1. Publish the website.
  2. Open the public URL in a private browser window.
  3. Confirm that guests can view the site without editor access.
  4. Copy the URL from the live website.

Ways to share

  • Text or messaging app: Best for a short personal message and direct link.
  • Email: Useful when you need to include instructions, a password, or RSVP details.
  • QR code: Useful on printed save the dates, invitations, signs, or enclosure cards.

Create a QR code in Canva

  1. Open the design that will contain the QR code.
  2. Select Apps and search for Canva's Static QR codes app.
  3. Paste the tested public website URL.
  4. Generate the code and add it to the design.
  5. Keep adequate blank space around the code and make it large enough to scan.

Test before printing

  • Scan the QR code from the Canva preview.
  • Download the print file and scan the code from that exported file.
  • Print one proof at actual size and scan it with more than one phone when possible.
  • Place a short written URL near the code as a backup and for accessibility.

Guest message checklist

Include who is invited, the website link, any password, the RSVP deadline, and whether each person or each household should respond.
