How it works
QR codes have built-in error correction: part of the code can be covered and it still scans. When you add a logo, ScanSpot switches to the highest level, which can recover about 30% of the code, and clears a space in the middle for your logo.
How to add your logo
- Make your code as usual.
- In "Make it yours", open the Logo tab and choose your image.
- Pick a size and whether it sits on a square, a circle, or nothing.
- Download, then test it with two or three different phones.
Tips so it always scans
- Keep the logo small to medium. Large logos look great but leave less room for error.
- Simple logos work best. A logo with a see-through background (PNG) looks cleanest.
- Dark code, light background. Phones need strong contrast. We warn you if your colors are too close.
- Keep the corners clear. The three big corner squares are how phones find the code.
