# QR code generator with logo

> Upload your logo, and it's placed in a cleared area in the middle of the code with error correction raised to the highest level (H), so the code still scans. It's free, with no watermark.

## How to use it
1. Enter the link your code should open.
2. Open Design and upload your logo (PNG with a transparent background looks best).
3. Pick your brand color and module style, keep the logo at 30% or less, and download once the scan check passes.

## Why the logo doesn't break the code
QR codes carry extra error-correction data. At level H, about 30% of the code can be damaged or hidden and it still reads. This tool removes the modules behind your logo instead of covering them, and switches to level H automatically. Your logo stays under 30% of the code's width, which leaves plenty of margin in practice.

## Logo tips
- Use a simple mark, not a full wordmark with small text.
- A square or round logo on a transparent background fits best.
- Bigger codes scan better with logos: print at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide.
- Test the printed proof with two or three different phones.

## Your logo stays private
The logo is read and resized in your browser and embedded straight into the PNG or SVG. It isn't uploaded to us.

## FAQ
### Is this QR code with logo really free?
Yes. No account, no watermark, no trial. Static codes made here work forever.

### How big can the logo be?
Up to 30% of the code's width. Between 18% and 24% is the sweet spot for most logos.

### Why does my code fail the scan check?
Usually low contrast, a very large logo, or a lot of data. Try a darker color, a smaller logo, square modules, or a shorter link.

### Can I change the link after printing?
Not with a static code. The link is inside the image. Editable codes are a dynamic QR code feature, which needs a Cuelark account (coming soon).
