# Your badge link

The QR code printed on your event badge points at a short link that's yours: `badge.hackclub.com/t/YOUR-SLACK-ID`. Where it sends people is entirely up to you, and you can change it whenever you like — including halfway through an event.

Point it at your portfolio, your GitHub, the project you're demoing, your Linktree. Someone scans your badge, they land there.

## Setting it up

1. Click your name in the top-right and open your profile settings.
2. Scroll to **Badge link**.
3. Paste in where you want scans to go, and **Save**.

Your own link (the one on the badge) never changes, so a badge printed last year still works. Only the destination moves.

## If the section asks you to connect Slack

Badge links are keyed to your Slack account, because that's what's encoded in the QR code. If Attend doesn't have a Slack ID for you yet, connect Slack from the **Account** section of the same page and the badge section will fill in.

## Turning it off

Clear the field and save. Scans then land on a short "this badge doesn't point anywhere yet" page instead of going anywhere.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Badge links used to live on their own site, with a separate login. They don't any more — `badge.hackclub.com` now only serves the redirects, and everything is managed here.
