Brands & QR codes

• Name: your internal label, such as "My YouTube" or "Holiday Promo".
• Logo: placed in the center of QR codes using this brand.
• QR foreground color: the color of the QR pattern.
• QR background color: the color behind the QR pattern.
• Default flag: whether this brand is pre-selected in the QR dialog.

• Trust: a logo makes the destination feel recognizable before the scan.
• Brand consistency: QR codes match your colors and visual system.
• Recall: people who do not scan still see your logo in the frame, package, or slide.

• Name: use a short label that is easy to recognize in the QR dialog later.
• Logo: upload JPG, PNG, or WEBP up to 4 MB.
• QR foreground: darker colors scan more reliably against light backgrounds.
• QR background: keep it light enough to maintain strong contrast.
• Default brand: toggle this on if you want this brand pre-selected when opening the QR dialog for any link that doesn’t have its own brand assigned. The default acts as a fallback — it’s used when a link wasn’t configured with a specific brand.

If a link has its own brand set (in the link’s edit form, under QR brand), that brand takes priority over the default when opening the QR dialog.

1. 1The link has its own brand assigned -> that brand is pre-selected. Configured per-link in the link’s edit form, under Options -> QR brand.
2. 2The link has no brand, but you have a default brand -> the default brand is pre-selected.
3. 3The link has no brand and you have no default -> "Standard AffProf QR" (no brand, plain black-and-white) is pre-selected.

Regardless of what’s pre-selected, the dropdown always shows all your saved brands plus the Standard option, so you can switch at download time.

• Use square or near-square logos. Round logos work too.
• Use high contrast against the QR background.
• Prefer simple recognizable shapes over fine detail.
• Avoid thin lines, small text, low-contrast colors, photos, or complex imagery.
• Pastel and very light backgrounds work better than mid-tone or dark backgrounds.

Go to Settings -> Brands to see all your saved brands. Each row shows:

• The brand’s logo preview.
• Name with a ⭐ Default badge if it’s currently the default.
• Color preview circles showing the foreground and background colors.
• Hex codes of both colors.

Action buttons:

• Set default (only on non-default brands): makes this brand the new default. Only one brand can be default at a time, so setting a new default automatically removes the badge from the previous one.
• Edit: change the name, logo, colors, or default status.
• Delete: remove the brand. See "What happens when you delete a brand" below.
• You can have as many brands as you want. Use Add brand at the bottom to create a new one.

What happens when you delete a brand

• Existing QR codes you’ve already downloaded with this brand are not affected. You already have the PNG files saved.
• Links that had this brand assigned automatically fall back to the next available option in the precedence chain: default brand if you have one, otherwise "Standard AffProf QR".
• Future QR downloads can no longer use the deleted brand.

1. 1From Links: find the link, open the actions menu, and click QR Code.
2. 2From the link detail panel: open any link and open the QR code section.
3. 3Choose Standard AffProf QR or one of your saved brands in the dropdown.

• Standard AffProf QR is plain black-and-white and works on every plan.
• Saved brands update the preview immediately with logo and colors.
• Use the standard QR for maximum compatibility or low-resolution printing.

• The file is a high-resolution PNG suitable for print and digital use.
• The filename includes the link slug for organization.
• The destination URL appears in plain text below the QR for accessibility.
