How to Watermark PNG

1 Upload the PNG images you want to mark, already at their final size — watermarking comes after resizing, not before it.
2 Upload a transparent PNG logo or type your text, then choose the font, the colour and the opacity.
3 Set the position, or switch to a tiled repeat when a single corner mark would be too easy to crop away.
4 Download the watermarked PNG file; nothing else is added to it.

Watermark PNG FAQ

How does Watermark PNG place the mark?
+
Concretely, the mark is composited with proper alpha blending and written back losslessly, which is why a lossless format is the right place to keep a watermarked master you will export from repeatedly. You control the position, the size and the opacity, and the same settings are applied consistently across everything you upload.
Either. Upload a transparent PNG logo, or type text and choose the font, colour and opacity. A tiled repeat is available when one corner mark is too easy to crop away.
It does. PNG is lossless DEFLATE with a full 8-bit alpha channel and optional 16-bit depth, so it never degrades on re-save but gets large on photographic content. That governs how cleanly a semi-transparent mark can be blended into the underlying content.
Yes — there is no quality slider to get wrong — a PNG round-trips bit-exactly, so the only thing edits cost you is file size. It affects when in your workflow the mark should be applied.
It deters casual reuse and it credits you; it is not security. A corner mark can be cropped and a faint one can be painted out. If protection matters, a large semi-transparent mark across the subject is far harder to remove than a discreet one in a corner.
After. Watermark the final deliverable at its final size, so the mark stays legible and proportionate. Watermarking a master you will process again means the mark gets resampled and compressed along with everything else.
PNG, BMP and TIFF are the lossless raster formats this handles directly, and lossy sources (JPG, WebP, GIF) work too if you want them in the same batch. Multi-page TIFFs are detected and handled page by page.
Yes: free accounts process images up to 25 MB each; lossless sources hit that ceiling sooner than photographs do, because nothing has been thrown away yet. If you are over it, converting to PNG first is often enough on its own — a BMP is routinely ten to twenty times the size of the identical image as PNG.
No. A lossless source round-trips bit-exactly, so unless you explicitly ask for a lossy output format the pixels that come back are the pixels that went in. That is the whole reason to keep working in this family while you are still editing.
Yes — upload the set and they process in parallel under one set of settings. Lossless files are larger, so a big batch is bound by your upload speed rather than by the processing itself.
Yes. PNG and TIFF carry a full 8-bit alpha channel and it is preserved end to end. It is only flattened if you deliberately target a format that has no alpha, in which case transparent pixels are composited onto white.
No. Watermark PNG runs free without an account and adds no watermark. Files are removed from the workers shortly after you download, and nothing about the image is retained.
