Transparent logo maker
Drop in a logo with a white or coloured background and get a transparent PNG, one-colour black and white versions, and square social images. It runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
Why you need a transparent logo
A logo with a white box behind it looks broken the moment it lands on anything that isn't white: a coloured website header, a photo, a dark slide, a T-shirt mock-up. A transparent PNG keeps only the logo's own pixels, so it sits cleanly on any background.
How it works
- Detects the background from the most common colour along the image edges.
- Removes it with a soft edge, so anti-aliased curves don't get a jagged halo.
- Recolours the remaining pixels to make black and white one-colour versions.
- Reads the colours so you can carry them into your brand kit.

Questions people ask
How do I make my logo background transparent?
Upload your logo above. If it sits on a flat colour (usually white), the tool detects that colour from the edges and removes it with a soft edge, then gives you a transparent PNG. It runs in your browser, so your file is not uploaded.
Why does my logo still have a white box?
JPG files cannot store transparency, so any logo saved as JPG has a solid background. Use the transparent PNG this tool creates, or ask your designer for a PNG or SVG export.
Does it work on photos or gradients?
Not well. This tool removes a single flat background colour, which suits nearly all logo files. Photos with complex backgrounds need a dedicated background-removal tool.
What is the best format for a transparent logo?
SVG for anything that needs to scale (signage, print, websites) and PNG for documents, slides and social media. LogoStudio's logo maker exports both; this page creates transparent PNGs from logos you already have.
Can I get a white version of my logo for dark backgrounds?
Yes. After upload you get one-colour black and white versions with the same transparency, plus square profile images on your brand colour.
