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
- Start with a Website URL (or switch payload type if you need Wi-Fi, vCard, etc.).
- Open Design → Logo, upload a local image, and tune size/margin.
- Keep strong contrast between modules and background.
- Run QR Lab analysis and a stress test before print.
- 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.
