How to watermark an image

1
Upload your image from your device, or pull it from Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive. JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC, BMP and TIFF are all supported - add one image, or up to three with a free account.
2
Type your watermark text - your name, brand, or a label like COPYRIGHT - or switch to image mode and upload your own logo. Pick a font size and colour to match the look you want.
3
Place the watermark: drag it anywhere on the image or snap it to a preset, then adjust opacity and rotation, and turn on mosaic mode to tile it across the whole image as an anti-copy pattern.
4
Preview the result in the editor. The watermark sits on a live overlay so you can fine-tune every setting before saving.
5
Click Add Watermark to apply. Download your image kept in its original format (or the whole batch as a ZIP), or save it back to the cloud.

Why use our Watermark Image tool

Custom text watermark
Type any text - your name, brand, or COPYRIGHT - to use as your mark. Style it with the font size, colour, and rotation that suit your photo.
Image & logo watermark
Prefer a logo? Upload your own image as the watermark, with one-click background removal so it sits cleanly over any photo.
Drag to position
Drag the watermark to any spot on the image, or snap it to one of nine presets - corner, centre, or edge. Tap a preset again to reset it.
Opacity slider
Take the watermark from fully solid to nearly invisible. Subtle marks read as a faint signature; solid marks stand out.
Rotation control
Tilt the watermark to any angle. Keep it upright, slant it slightly, or rotate fully diagonal for the classic stamp look.
Mosaic mode
Tile the watermark in a repeating grid across the whole image - the classic anti-copy pattern that is hard to crop out without losing part of the photo.
Pick any colour
Use brand red, signature black, or any colour you choose. The colour picker lets you match your photo or stand out boldly against it.
Many image formats
JPG, JPEG, PNG, WEBP, BMP, TIFF and HEIC all work. Output keeps the same format as the input - HEIC is saved as JPG, since browsers can't write HEIC.
Batch watermarking
Watermark up to three photos at once with a free account using the same settings, then download them together as a ZIP.
Live preview
See the watermark on a real preview of your image as you adjust position, opacity, and rotation - no guessing.
Original quality kept
Resolution and dimensions are preserved. The watermark is applied as a fresh overlay without re-compressing the rest of the image.
Private by design
Watermarking runs entirely in your browser - your photo is never uploaded unless you choose cloud import or sharing.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add a watermark to a photo for free?

Add your photo in the box above, type your watermark text or choose a logo image, adjust the look and position, and download. It's free, needs no sign-up and adds no branding of our own.

How do I add my logo as a watermark?

Choose an image watermark and select your logo. A PNG with a transparent background looks best. Set its size and opacity, then drag it where you want it.

Can I place the watermark anywhere?

Yes. Pick a preset position or hold and drag the watermark on the preview. Turn on the tiled layout to repeat it across the whole photo, which makes it harder to crop out.

How do I watermark a copy of my ID or passport?

Before sending a photo of your ID card, passport or driving licence, add text such as Only for rental application, with the date, across the document. It shows what the copy is for and makes misuse harder.

Can I write the watermark in my own language?

Yes. Type the text in any language your device can write, such as Hindi, Arabic, Chinese or Russian; it's drawn with your device's fonts.

How do I watermark photos on iPhone or Android?

Open this page in Safari or Chrome, add a photo from your gallery, set up the watermark and download. No app is needed; iPhone HEIC photos are accepted.

Can I watermark many photos at once?

Without an account you can watermark one photo at a time. With a free account you can add up to 3 photos at once (100 MB in total), each with its own watermark settings: click a photo in the list to set it up.

Which format is the watermarked photo saved in?

By default it keeps the original format. You can also choose JPG, PNG or WebP; pick PNG to keep transparency.

Can you remove a watermark from a photo?

No. This tool adds watermarks; it doesn't remove them. If an image carries someone else's watermark, ask the owner for a clean copy.

Can I watermark a PDF instead?

Yes, use Watermark PDF for documents.

Are my photos kept private?

Yes. Photos are watermarked in your browser on your own device and aren't uploaded to our server. Only if you choose to share a link or save to cloud storage is a file sent.
