01 How it works

  1. Choose an image.
  2. Enter watermark text and an optional color.
  3. Download the marked image.

02 Good to know

The watermark is rendered visibly into the image pixels. It is not an invisible ownership mark or a way to protect the file from editing. JPG and WebP stay in their format; other images are saved as PNG.

03Add a visible text watermark

A text watermark is drawn into the image pixels, so it appears in the exported copy. Choose wording and color that remain legible against the image.

A visible mark can be cropped, covered, or edited out. It does not prevent copying and is not an invisible ownership or verification mark.

04Download the marked image

JPG and WebP remain in their format; other supported images are saved as PNG. Re-encoding can change metadata and image appearance. Keep the original unmarked file separately.
