Free Online Image Watermark Tool
Add a text watermark to any image with full control over size, opacity, and position. No uploads required.
How to Add a Watermark
Upload your image, type your watermark text, and adjust the font size, opacity, and position using the controls. Click Apply Watermark to see the result on the canvas, then download. You can re-apply with different settings as many times as you like — each apply starts from the original image.
Why Watermark Your Images
Watermarks help protect your photographs and artwork from unauthorized use. They identify you as the creator and discourage others from passing off your work as their own. Even a subtle semi-transparent watermark can deter theft while keeping the image visually clean.
Tips for Effective Watermarks
Use 30-50% opacity for a professional look that does not overpower the image. Place the watermark in a corner for minimal distraction, or in the center for maximum protection. Choose a contrasting color so the text is visible but not distracting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add an image/logo watermark?
This tool supports text-based watermarks. For logo watermarks, you would need to overlay a second image, which requires a more advanced editor.
Can I change the watermark font?
The tool uses the Outfit font by default (from the site's design system), with Arial as a fallback. Custom font selection is not currently available.
Does applying the watermark permanently alter my original image?
No. The original image is not modified. The watermark is applied on the canvas and only the download contains the watermarked version.
Can I position the watermark anywhere on the image?
You can choose from five preset positions: Center, Bottom Right, Bottom Left, Top Right, and Top Left.
Is this tool free and private?
Yes. It is completely free, runs in your browser, and never uploads your images to any server.
