How to add a logo to your QR code

Brand your codes without breaking the scan.

A logo makes a QR code recognizably yours — on packaging, menus, badges and signs. The trick is to keep it scannable: the logo covers part of the code, so error correction must be high enough to recover the missing area.

Best practice

  1. Use error correction H when a logo is present; it reserves the most recovery data.
  2. Keep the logo ~20–25% of the code width — large enough to recognise, small enough to scan.
  3. Add a padding plate behind the logo so modules don't show through it.
  4. High contrast — dark modules on a light background still wins, even with colour.
  5. Verify before print — scan the final export on a phone to be sure.

With QRVolt

In the Logo card, enable “Add a logo”, pick the built-in QRVolt mark or upload your own image, set the size, and toggle a padding plate. You can also place the brand at the top of the code. Test the result with the in-app scan check before downloading.
