Design a QR code with your logo, brand colors, custom shapes, and gradients in EZQR's free generator, then download it print-ready and test it before you print.

## What the video covers

1. **Open EZQR's custom generator**  - Visit ezqr.ca/custom-qr-code. It is free with no account, with logo, color, shape, and gradient controls all on one page.
2. **Paste your link**  - Paste the URL the code should open. The preview updates instantly.
3. **Add your logo and brand colors**  - Drop your logo into the center and set the dot and background colors - or a two-color gradient. Add a 'scan me' caption and pick a dot and corner shape to match your brand.
4. **Keep it scannable**  - Keep the dots dark on a light background, the logo under about 30% of the code, and error correction on its highest setting so the design still scans.
5. **Download SVG and test**  - Download as SVG for print so it stays sharp at any size (PNG and JPG are also available), then scan-test on both an iPhone and an Android before printing.
