# Add a logo or watermark to a video

> Drop your logo onto the timeline above the video, drag it into a corner, lower the opacity so it sits quietly, and stretch it to cover the whole video.

Place your logo or a watermark on a video: drop a PNG, scale it, set the opacity and corner, and export. Stays on for the whole video or part of it. Free.

## How it works

1. **Drop in your video and your logo** — The logo lands on its own track above the footage. A PNG with a transparent background looks best.
2. **Place and style it** — Drag it into a corner, scale it on the preview and lower the opacity in the inspector for a subtle watermark.
3. **Set how long it shows** — Drag the logo clip to cover the whole video, or only the intro and outro, then export.

## Why CutLuma for this

- **Any image works** — PNG, JPG, SVG or WebP. Transparent PNGs keep only the mark, with no box around it.
- **Text watermarks too** — No logo yet? Add a text clip with your handle or site and style it the same way.
- **Safe-zone aware** — For TikTok and Reels, keep the logo out of the bottom quarter and away from the right edge where the app buttons sit.

## FAQ

**Does this remove the CutLuma badge?**

Free exports carry a small CutLuma badge in the corner alongside your logo. Paid plans export without it.

**Can I add the same logo to many videos?**

Yes. The logo is saved in your library, so drop it into every project, or save a project as your template.

**How transparent should a watermark be?**

Around 50–70% opacity is visible without fighting the picture. Keep a full-strength logo for intros and end cards.
