Free Add Watermark to Photo Tool

This free online tool lets you add a text watermark to a photo in seconds. Upload an image, type your watermark, choose its position, size, colour and opacity, and download the protected image. You can also tile the watermark across the whole photo. Everything happens in your browser, so your photos are never uploaded anywhere.

How to add a watermark

  1. Upload your photo by dragging it in or clicking to choose a file.
  2. Type your watermark text (your name, brand or © notice).
  3. Choose the position, and adjust size, opacity and colour.
  4. Turn on Tile across image for a repeated, harder-to-remove watermark.
  5. Click Download watermarked to save your image.

Why watermark your images?

A watermark is text or a logo placed over an image to show who owns it. Photographers, designers, bloggers and businesses use watermarks to protect their work from being copied or used without credit, and to promote their brand whenever the image is shared. A semi-transparent watermark in a corner is subtle, while a tiled watermark across the whole photo is much harder to crop or edit out.

For the best balance of protection and looks, use a moderate opacity (around 40–60%) so the watermark is visible but doesn’t ruin the image. Place it where it can’t simply be cropped off — over an important part of the photo, or tiled everywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Is this watermark tool free and private?
Yes. It’s completely free with no sign-up, and the watermark is added entirely in your browser. Your photo is never uploaded to any server.
Can I tile the watermark across the whole image?
Yes. Turn on Tile across image and the text repeats diagonally over the entire photo, which is much harder to crop or remove than a single corner watermark.
Can I change the watermark colour and opacity?
Yes. You can pick any colour, set the opacity from faint to solid, and change the font size. A subtle drop shadow is added so the text stays readable on both light and dark images.
Does it support a logo or image watermark?
This tool adds text watermarks. For a logo, add your brand name as text, or first turn your logo into text-style branding. Image-logo watermarking may be added in a future update.
Will the watermark reduce image quality?
No. The original image is kept at full resolution and only the watermark is drawn on top. The file is exported at high quality in its original format.
