Why Add a Logo to Your QR Code?
Brand Recognition
A plain black-and-white QR code is generic. Adding your logo makes it instantly recognizable as yours and builds trust with scanners.
Higher Scan Rates
People are more likely to scan a branded QR code. It looks intentional and professional, not like spam or a random link.
Professional Appearance
Branded QR codes look polished on business cards, packaging, and marketing materials. They show attention to detail.
Visual Context
The logo hints at what the code links to. A restaurant logo suggests a menu. A company logo suggests their website.
How Logo QR Codes Work
QR codes are designed with redundancy. They use "error correction" — extra data that allows the code to be read even if part of it is damaged, dirty, or obscured.
At the highest error correction level (Level H), up to 30% of a QR code can be missing and it will still scan. This is what makes logos possible — you're essentially "damaging" the center of the code with your image, but the error correction compensates.
Error Correction Levels:
- Level L (7%) — Not enough for logos
- Level M (15%) — Small logos only
- Level Q (25%) — Medium logos work
- Level H (30%) — Best for logos, recommended
Logo QR Code Best Practices
Keep Logo Under 30% of Code Area
The logo should fit in the center without covering the corner position markers or too much of the data area.
Use Simple, Clear Logos
Complex logos with fine details may not be visible at small sizes. Simple icons and wordmarks work best.
Maintain High Contrast
The QR code itself should stay high contrast (dark on light). The logo can have colors, but don't let it blend into the code pattern.
Add Padding Around the Logo
A small white or light border around the logo helps it stand out and prevents it from blending into the QR pattern.
Always Test Before Printing
Scan your logo QR code with multiple phones before mass printing. Test at the size you'll actually use.
What to Avoid
- ✗ Oversized logos — Covering more than 30% breaks scanning
- ✗ Covering corner squares — The three large squares in corners are essential for scanning
- ✗ Low contrast colors — Light gray codes on white backgrounds fail
- ✗ Transparent logo backgrounds — Can make the logo hard to see against the code
- ✗ Skipping test scans — Never print without testing first
