§USE CASE / CANVA

Create a custom QR code and use it in your Canva designs

Generate the QR at codigo-qr.es with your colors and logo, download it as PNG or SVG in seconds and add it to any Canva design as an image. No extra apps needed.

Does your next Canva design already include a branded QR?

Why does Canva's built-in QR generator fall short?

Canva includes a basic QR generator, but it does not allow color customization, adding a logo or creating dynamic QR codes that can be updated later.

Canva has a built-in QR generator that works for simple cases. But if you need the QR to match your brand colors, include your company logo or fit into a professional design, Canva's native generator is not enough: it only creates black-and-white QR codes with no customization options.

Also, once you print a design with that QR, you cannot change the destination afterward. If your URL, phone number or promotion changes, you have to redesign and reprint the piece. A dynamic QR code solves that problem.

How do you use a codigo-qr.es QR code in a Canva design?

Create the QR at codigo-qr.es with your colors and logo, download it as PNG or SVG and add it to your Canva design as an image. It takes less than 2 minutes.

At codigo-qr.es you generate the QR for the URL, text or contact you need. You customize the colors, dot shape and center logo. Download as transparent PNG or vector SVG. Then open your Canva design, go to Upload media and drag the file in. The QR integrates like any other visual element.

If you choose a dynamic QR, you can change the destination from the codigo-qr.es dashboard at any time. The QR already printed on your flyer or poster keeps working with the new destination without redesigning or reprinting the Canva piece.

§HOW IT WORKS

How to add a custom QR code to a Canva design?

Four steps: create the QR at codigo-qr.es, download the PNG or SVG, upload it to Canva and place it in your design.

  1. 01

    Go to codigo-qr.es, paste the URL or content you want the QR to open and choose the type: URL, WhatsApp, vCard, WiFi...

  2. 02

    Customize the QR: choose your brand colors, the dot shape and upload your company logo if you want one in the center.

  3. 03

    Download the QR as transparent-background PNG or vector SVG. Both formats work perfectly in Canva.

  4. 04

    Open your Canva design, click Upload media, select the QR file and drag it into your design. Resize and done.

§BENEFITS

What advantages does a codigo-qr.es QR have over Canva's?

Brand colors, integrated logo, editable dynamic QR and scan analytics. Canva's generator offers none of these options.

  • Your brand colors: the QR can use exactly your brand palette instead of standard black
  • Logo in the center: add your company logo or icon inside the QR itself
  • Dynamic QR: change the destination without redesigning or reprinting your Canva piece
  • Transparent-background PNG: integrates perfectly over any background in your design
  • Analytics: with the Pro plan you know how many people scan your QR, from which country and on which device

§FAQ

How do you add a QR code to a Canva design?

Create the QR at codigo-qr.es, download it as PNG or SVG and upload it to Canva as an image. The whole process takes less than 2 minutes.

  • For basic cases, yes. But Canva's generator only creates black-and-white QR codes with no customization, no logo and no dynamic QR option. If you need brand colors, a logo or the ability to change the destination after printing, use codigo-qr.es.

  • SVG is the vector format: it looks sharp at any size and is ideal for designs that will be printed. Transparent-background PNG also works great for digital designs or presentations.

  • Not with a static QR. With a dynamic QR (Pro plan) yes: edit the destination URL in the codigo-qr.es dashboard and all already-printed or published QR codes point to the new destination immediately.

  • Yes, as long as the logo does not cover more than 30% of the QR area. codigo-qr.es controls this automatically and uses a high error-correction level so the QR remains readable.

  • Yes. You can include a custom QR in Canva templates you sell to clients. With a dynamic QR, the client can change the destination from the dashboard without modifying the design.

  • The static QR with custom colors and logo is free. The dynamic QR with scan analytics and editable destination is available on the Pro plan at 5.99€/month.
