Sign Up for WeChat Account Without Scanning QR Code

Sign up for WeChat account can be a bit complicated. Usually, you need a friend to scan the QR code for you to register WeChat sucessfully.

However, here I will share some tips so you won’t encounter difficulties.

WeChat is a multifunctional messaging application similar to WhatsApp. This app serves as a popular messaging tool and payment method in China.

However, they impose various restrictions and requirements when registering an account.

Without scanning the QR code, the WeChat account registration process cannot proceed.

This can be quite inconvenient, especially since the app is not widely used in countries outside of China.

But what can you do; it turns out this app is very useful, especially if you often interact with people from China.

Because this app is popular in the bamboo curtain country, considering services like Facebook, WhatsApp, Google, or Instagram are blocked.

How to Register/Sign Up for WeChat Account

Generally, to register and create a WeChat account, follow these steps:

Open the WeChat app
Click Sign Up with Mobile Number
Choose Register via Mobile
Fill in your identity information, don’t forget to check the Agree to the Terms of Service after the data is filled

In the Mobile column, make sure you write your phone number without “0” because the number 0 is already represented by the Indonesian country code (+62)

Create a password that is easy to remember but hard to guess, then note it in notes or on paper so you don’t forget (This is important, once you lose your password, sometimes you don’t even have the chance to reset it even if the phone number is still active)

Scroll down to the bottom, then check I Have Read And Accepted The Above Terms and click Next

Click Start to verify security

Slide the puzzle to the empty part

After that, you will receive a QR code to be scanned by someone else

How to Register/Sign Up WeChat Without Scanning QR Code

Due to the complicated registration process like this, it is not uncommon for some to take advantage of it for buying and selling QR code scanning services.

So, if you really don’t have friends using WeChat, usually there are only 3 options:

Ask for someone’s help
Use QR code scanning services
Buy a pre-made WeChat account

But I have found a trick. Where you don’t need to use services or ask for someone’s help.

Because spending money on both options, and secondly, there may not be anyone to help.

It’s better to donate the money to orphans (in my name, hehe), or donate to PayPal to extend the life of this website. 🙂

Now, here are the steps to register on WeChat without scanning QR code:

Actually, the process is exactly the same as registering WeChat normally. But during the verification, we need to quickly turn off the internet
Click Start to verify security

This is a very IMPORTANT AND CRUCIAL step. So, make sure not to make any mistakes, because if there is an error, you have to repeat this step several times until successful. And there is no guarantee that your number will not be blacklisted for attempting multiple times
Here we have to drag the puzzle to the right position. But at a FAST pace, you must IMMEDIATELY turn off the internet connection BEFORE the request to scan the QR code appears

After that, a warning will appear, click Close

Verification SMS will be sent to each number. Enter the verification code and click Next
At this step, there are two possibilities: first, you successfully create the account, second, you fail
If you fail, now repeat the steps above but this time DO NOT turn off the internet connection
If it still doesn’t work, DO NOT CONTINUE!!! Because you will receive a SUSPICIOUS REGISTRATION warning. You must think of another way that could be a solution

Sometimes this method is fixed by the application developer. That’s not something new because every flaw in the application will be fixed.

As an alternative solution, please join the WeChat Facebook QR code scan group, or the WeChat Telegram QR code scan group.

Update August 26, 2022: Now you can’t register for WeChat at all; I’ve closed the group because it was misused + due to WeChat’s latest policy that restricts users from registering

If someone asks for payment, the admin will immediately ban that person.

That way, you can register a WeChat account without scanning the QR code.
