Step-by-Step Guide

Download Your QR Code from NexaLink

Open the NexaLink app, go to your card, and download the QR code as a high-resolution PNG image.

Tip: Choose the version without a logo overlay for the cleanest scan at small sizes

Open a Design Tool

Use Canva, Figma, or any image editor. Start with a 1920x1080 pixel canvas for HD video backgrounds.

Tip: Canva offers free virtual background templates that you can customize quickly

Design a Clean Background

Choose a simple, professional background image or solid color that does not compete with your face on camera.

Tip: Muted tones and subtle gradients work best since busy backgrounds distract viewers

Place Your QR Code Strategically

Position the QR code in a corner that will not be covered by your head. The bottom-right corner is safest.

Tip: Add a small label like 'Scan for my card' next to the QR code for context

Upload to Your Video Platform

Upload the background image to Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams in the virtual background settings.

Tip: Test the background in a solo call to confirm the QR code is scannable from another device
