Viber link generator
In short
Type a phone number and get a viber:// link that opens a Viber chat with it, plus a QR code to print. Viber links open the app directly, not a web page, so they work best as a QR code or for people you know already use Viber.

How a Viber link is built
The format: viber://chat?number=%2B<number>. %2B is the + sign written for a link. The generator adds it for you.
The example link, part by part
viber://chat?number=%2B447700900877
1The app address
viber://
This is not a website. It tells the device to open Viber, the same way a mailto: link opens an email app.
2The action
chat?number=
Asks Viber to open a one to one chat with the number that follows.
3The number
%2B447700900877
%2B is the + sign in link code, followed by the full number with its country code.
Where a Viber link works
Because the link starts with viber:// and not https://, what happens depends on the device and on the app showing the link.
| Opened from | What happens |
|---|---|
| A phone with Viber | Viber opens straight into the chat. |
| A computer with Viber for desktop | The browser asks to open Viber, then the chat appears. |
| A device without Viber | Nothing, or a note that no app can open the link. |
| A QR code scanned with the camera | The phone usually offers to open Viber. This is the most reliable route. |
| Some social apps and email programs | The link may show as plain text that cannot be tapped. |
Where Viber links make sense
Viber is a leading chat app in places like Ukraine, Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, the Philippines and Myanmar. If your customers live there, a Viber link meets them in the app they already open every day.
- Local shops and taxisA QR sticker on the counter or the dashboard lets regulars message or book without dialling.
- Deliveries and repairsPrint the code on receipts so customers can send a photo of the problem or ask where their parcel is.
- Family businesses abroadPeople who moved away often keep Viber to talk with home. A link on your site lets them reach you the same way.
- Ads aimed at Viber countriesWhen an ad targets a country where Viber leads, a Viber button can feel more familiar than any other chat app.
Viber links open the app, not a website
Unlike WhatsApp or Telegram links, a Viber link starts with viber:// instead of https://. It opens Viber directly, so it works on phones and computers that have Viber installed, and does nothing on devices without it.
That makes Viber links best for QR codes and for audiences you know use Viber.
Some sites block app links
A few social networks and email programs strip links that do not start with https://. If a Viber link does not become clickable, share the QR code instead: scanning it opens the chat.
The safe fallback is your own web page. Put the Viber button there, where you control the code, and link to that page from everywhere else.
Get your Viber link in front of people
Print the QR code
It skips the problem of apps that hide viber:// links, because the phone camera reads it directly.
Add the button to your site
Copy the button code from the generator. The visitor's browser asks before it opens Viber.
Test on two devices
Try one phone with Viber and one without, so you know what every customer will see.
Keep your personal number out of it
A Viber link carries the phone number, so everyone who sees it can read it. For a public or business Viber account, use a second number and keep your personal one private.
A second phone number gets sign-up codes and calls, so you can register Viber on it and share the link freely. Need only the code? A one-time SMS code number costs less than a dollar.
Links for other apps
Writing the message too? The WhatsApp text formatter adds bold, italics, lists and quotes.

Viber links, answered
How do I make a Viber chat link?+
Use viber://chat?number=%2B followed by the full international number without the +. The generator above builds it and a QR code.
Why does my Viber link do nothing?+
Viber links only work where the Viber app is installed. On other devices, or in apps that block non-web links, share the QR code instead.
Can a Viber link include a message?+
No. The link opens the chat, and the person types the first message.
Can I put a Viber link in my Instagram bio?+
Often it will not be clickable, because many apps only link https:// addresses. Link to a page on your own site with the Viber button, or post the QR code as an image.
Does Viber need the number in international format?+
Yes. Viber matches the full number with its country code, so a local number without it may reach nobody. Pick the country in the tool and it adds the code.
Is the Viber link generator free?+
Yes. It runs on your device and sends nothing to us.
