QR Code with Logo

Brand a QR with your logo without leaving your browser.

Logo images are processed locally for preview and export. QRburst does not upload your logo as part of generation.

Protocol optional — example.com becomes https://example.com

PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, or SVG · max 2 MB · processed locally

Design

Upload a logo above to adjust size and margin.

Larger logos can make QR codes harder to scan.

Preview stays within the card. Size applies to PNG export; SVG is scalable vector output.

Add a logo without forking the engine

  1. Start with a Website URL (or switch payload type if you need Wi-Fi, vCard, etc.).
  2. Open Design → Logo, upload a local image, and tune size/margin.
  3. Keep strong contrast between modules and background.
  4. Run QR Lab analysis and a stress test before print.
  5. Export PNG/SVG or a Print Studio size for physical use.

Logo in the middle vs the edge

Putting a mark in the center is common for brand layouts. That position sits on data modules, so clearance behind the logo and a modest size matter more than the word “middle” itself. A large centered logo on a dense matrix fails more often than a smaller one with the same error-correction level. Keep finders unobstructed and leave a quiet zone around the whole symbol.

Logos reduce scan margin — measure, don’t guess

Clearing modules behind a mark helps, but it is not a guarantee. Avoid simplistic claims like “H error correction means you can cover 30%.” QRburst’s Lab scores configuration risk and can stress-test under blur, glare, and obstruction so you decide with evidence.

Test before you print

After you place the logo, run QR Lab, then a decode stress test. If the job is physical, size it in Print Studio and scan a proof on two phones. For size and placement detail, see logo best practices, QR code size, and how to test a QR code.

Local logo processing

Images stay in the browser for validation and rendering. They are not uploaded to QRburst as part of generation. MIME, size, and dimension limits still apply — SVG logo upload is only available if the existing security model allows it.

Frequently asked questions

Does a logo change what the QR encodes?
No. The logo is a visual overlay. The payload (URL or other type) stays whatever you enter in the form. Changing branding does not create a redirect or analytics link.
How large can the logo be?
QRburst limits logo size and can clear modules behind it, but larger logos still reduce robustness. Use QR Lab stress tests and Print Studio — do not assume a single error-correction level makes any coverage “safe.”
Should the logo sit in the middle or in a corner?
Most branded codes put the mark near the center because that is where open space is easiest to spare. Center placement still covers data modules. A smaller mark with cleared modules usually scans better than a large centered logo. Corner placement can leave finders clearer, but it still needs a quiet zone and contrast check.
Does a logo require error correction H? Is a set percentage safe?
H recovers more damage than L or M, which helps when modules are covered. It is not a free pass for any logo size. There is no fixed “safe” percentage that works for every payload and print size. Raise ECC if you use a logo, keep the mark small, then measure with Lab and a real phone scan.
