QR From Link

Chainlink (LINK) QR Code Generator

Make a QR code for the Ethereum address you receive LINK on. The 0x address is checked in your browser before the code is drawn, and it is never uploaded.

Starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Mixed-case addresses are verified against their EIP-55 checksum.

The code carries the address only. Most wallets ignore an amount on this network, so the payer enters it.

Double-check the address and network — payments can’t be reversed.

What a Chainlink QR code is

A Chainlink QR code is a static QR code that stores an Ethereum (0x) address for receiving LINK, an ERC-20 token, so the sender’s wallet can scan the address instead of pasting it.

LINK is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, so it has no address format of its own: you receive it at your normal 0x Ethereum address. Paste that address and you get a code any Ethereum wallet can scan; the sender then picks LINK as the token to send.

The generator checks that the address is 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters and, for a mixed-case address, verifies its EIP-55 checksum, which catches truncated pastes, stray spaces, and most typos. The code carries the address only, with no amount. The check and the drawing happen in your browser, and the address never leaves your device.

How to create a Chainlink QR code

  1. 01

    Copy your Ethereum address

    In your wallet, open LINK (or your Ethereum account) and tap Receive. On an exchange, open Deposit, choose LINK, and select the Ethereum (ERC-20) network.

  2. 02

    Paste it into the generator

    Paste the 0x address above. Mixed upper- and lowercase letters are normal; they are a checksum wallets use to catch typos.

  3. 03

    Generate and label it

    Generate the code and print “LINK · Ethereum (ERC-20)” next to it, so senders choose the right token and network.

  4. 04

    Download and test

    Download the PNG or SVG and scan it with your wallet to check the address before you share it.

Things specific to LINK

  • A token, received at your ETH address

    LINK lives on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token contract. Your LINK balance sits at the same 0x address as your ETH and any other ERC-20 tokens, so there is no separate “LINK address” to look for.

  • The sender needs ETH for fees

    Sending LINK on Ethereum costs a network fee paid in ETH, not in LINK. Someone holding LINK but no ETH cannot send it to you until they top up.

  • LINK on other networks

    LINK also exists on other chains, such as BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Base, and exchanges sometimes offer those for withdrawals. They use 0x addresses too, so print the network you expect beside the code.

  • Never send to the token contract

    Explorers show LINK’s contract address next to its name, and Chainlink price-feed contracts appear in many tutorials. None of those are wallets; tokens sent to them are lost. Encode your own address from your wallet’s Receive screen.

  • Staking and rewards

    LINK withdrawn from staking or paid to node operators lands at an ordinary 0x address, like any other transfer. Nobody running a legitimate staking service needs you to scan or share anything beyond that address.

  • No amount in the code

    Token payment links are not handled consistently by wallets, so the code holds the address only and the sender types the amount of LINK.

Where a Chainlink QR code helps

  • Moving LINK from a hardware wallet to an exchange
  • Payments between colleagues and contributors
  • Hackathons and developer meetups
  • Donation pages for open-source and Web3 projects
  • Conference badges and speaker slides
  • Stream overlays and video descriptions

Label the network next to the code. A 0x address is valid on Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, and other EVM networks, and the code alone does not say which one you mean.

Never put a private key or seed phrase in a QR code. Only the receiving address is needed.

Token transfers cannot be reversed. Scan your code before printing, compare the first and last characters with your wallet, and keep printed codes where nobody can stick a different one on top.

This site is not a wallet. It does not hold LINK, connect to Chainlink services, or process payments; it only draws the code.

Questions about this

Copy your Ethereum (0x) address from your wallet, paste it above, and download the code. Print “LINK · ERC-20” next to it.

Yes, for LINK on Ethereum. LINK is an ERC-20 token, so it is received at the same 0x address as ETH.

No. The code carries the address only, and the sender enters the amount in their wallet.

Usually because they have no ETH for the Ethereum network fee. They need a little ETH in the same wallet to send any ERC-20 token.

This page is for LINK on Ethereum. The same 0x address can receive LINK on other EVM networks, but the code looks identical, so write the network you accept in text beside it.

No. It is checked and encoded in your browser. The site uses Google Analytics to count visits and may show ads, but never receives your address.
