Generate Branded QR Code API

What it does

Branded QR Code Generator creates a QR code image from text or a URL, with optional logo overlay and basic color controls. Send the content you want encoded, and you get back a binary image suitable for download, embedding, or print workflows.

Use the content field for the URL or text to encode. If you want a custom look, include an optional logo image for the center overlay, choose the output size between 256 and 2048, and set background and foreground colors to match your brand. The defaults are a white background and dark foreground for strong scan contrast.

This is a good fit for product packaging, event badges, posters, restaurant menus, and marketing materials where a standard black-and-white QR code would look out of place. Because the output is binary image data, you can pipe it straight into storage, a file response, or an image-processing step without extra conversion.
