If you have been browsing the Snapchat app, chances are you have come across a recurring term: Snapcode. What is this element exactly? The Snapcode is a unique code that identifies you within the Snapchat platform. In case other users scan them, they can easily add you as a friend or start chatting with you. To help you understand how it works, we can compare the Snapcode to a QR code containing a link to your profile.
Therefore, we can say that the main function of the Snapcode is to share a username with others. Some businesses that use this application in their marketing strategy print the Snapchat code and place it in a visible place for their customers. This will let you access the profile quickly. On the other hand, some users share it on social networks so that others can quickly add them as friends.
Because of all this, it is natural to wonder how you can create your Snapcode. Well, you should know that the Snapchat code is created automatically when you open a new account. In fact, it is enabled even if you have not yet designed a Bitmoji avatar, as you can see in the following picture.
