Learn how to customize QR codes in Linkkit by adding logos, changing colors, selecting styles, downloading in multiple formats, and generating branded QR codes with the API.


Customize QR Codes in Linkkit

Description

Linkkit makes it easy to create QR codes that match your brand. Customize the appearance of your QR codes by adding your logo, changing colors, selecting different styles, and downloading them in multiple formats.

You can personalize QR codes while creating a new short link or edit them later at any time.


Logo Settings

Business Feature
Available on Business plans and above.

With a Business plan, you can replace the default QR code logo with your own brand logo for a more professional appearance.

If you're using the Free plan, the default Linkkit logo will appear in the center of your QR codes.

Add a Custom QR Code Logo

You can use a custom logo in two ways:

  • Workspace Logo – Applies to every QR code created in your workspace.
  • Domain Logo – Applies only to QR codes created using a specific custom domain.
Logo Priority
If both a workspace logo and a domain logo are configured, Linkkit will use the domain logo for QR codes created with that domain.

Option 1: Set a Workspace Logo

Apply one logo across your entire workspace.

Steps

  • Open Workspace Settings.
  • Navigate to Branding.
  • Upload your company logo.
  • Save your changes.

For the best appearance, use a square PNG or SVG image.

Once uploaded, all newly generated QR codes will automatically use your workspace logo.


Option 2: Set a Logo for a Custom Domain

If you manage multiple brands or products, you can assign a different logo to each custom domain.

Steps

  • Open Settings → Domains.
  • Select the domain you want to customize.
  • Click Edit Domain.
  • Enable Custom QR Code Logo.
  • Upload your logo.
  • Save your changes.

New QR codes created with that domain will automatically use the selected logo.


Customize QR Code Style

Linkkit lets you personalize the appearance of every QR code while keeping it fully scannable.

Dot Style

Choose the pattern used for the QR code dots.

Available styles include:

  • Square
  • Rounded
  • Circular

The default option is Square.


Finder Center Style

Customize the center portion of the QR code's corner markers.

Available styles:

  • Square
  • Circle

Finder Border Style

Choose the border style used for the QR code markers.

Available options include:

  • Square
  • Rounded
  • Circle

QR Code Colors

Personalize your QR code using your brand colors.

You can customize:

  • Dot color
  • Marker color

Colors can be selected using:

  • A color picker
  • HEX color values

By default, both colors remain synchronized. If you choose different colors for the markers, they become independent, allowing greater design flexibility.


Generate QR Codes with the API

Developers can automatically generate QR codes using the Linkkit API.

The API supports:

  • Workspace branding
  • Custom logos
  • QR code styling
  • Multiple output formats
  • Automated QR code generation

If a workspace or domain logo is configured, it can automatically be included in generated QR codes, depending on your API request.

For implementation details, see the QR Code API documentation.

Download Your QR Code

After customizing your QR code, click Download in the editor.

Supported formats include:

  • PNG
  • SVG
  • JPG

These formats are suitable for websites, presentations, printed materials, packaging, posters, and marketing assets.


Copy Your QR Code

Need to use your QR code immediately?

Click Copy to quickly copy either:

  • The QR code image
  • The QR code image URL

This makes it easy to paste your QR code into documents, emails, design tools, or messaging applications without downloading it first.


Tips for Better QR Codes

For the best scanning experience:

  • Use a high-contrast color combination.
  • Upload a clear, square logo.
  • Avoid covering too much of the QR code with large logos.
  • Test your QR code on multiple devices before publishing.
  • Download SVG files for high-quality printing.
