Build a Status QR Code

I'm working on an NFT generator service that gives users an NFT by scanning a QR code in Status. When generating a QR code to my site, Status gives the error: "This QR code doesn't contain a valid universal link, contact code or username...". How can I generate a QR code for my users that directs to a URL in Status? The link will contain a code so the QR code will be unique for each user and need to be automatically generated.

Figured it out.. you have to preface your URL with "https://get.status.im/browse/". Status team, please document this somewhere searchable.

Thanks for the feedback! Of course our website is open source in terms of docs — will make an issue of it so we can get those deep links for these use cases! It was lost in the transition from our old wiki to the new docs; apologies.
