A branded QR code looks like part of your design instead of a black square, and customers trust codes that carry a familiar logo. You can add your logo to the centre, choose your brand colours, build gradients with unlimited colour stops and even shape the code like a coffee cup, house, car or shopping cart.
The design should never get in the way of scanning. Use dark colours on a light background and keep the logo small enough for the code’s error correction to work.

Tips for a QR code that scans first time
- Keep contrast between the code and the background high, and avoid inverted (light on dark) codes.
- Keep the logo to about a fifth of the code width.
- Test before printing: print one at actual size and scan it from the distance people will use.
