Not Only for the Web
Watermarkly is primarily an online app that allows you to watermark photos and PDF files. Now, you can use it to add watermarks to videos, as well.
What’s the best thing about it? You don’t need to switch between different apps! Yep, it’s perfectly possible to upload a batch of images, videos and PDFs, then add one and the same watermark to them. This is incredibly convenient since you can add your watermark to different types of content in one go.
But what if you need to add watermarks specifically to videos? And you prefer working with a desktop app that doesn’t rely on internet connection?
Well, we also have a desktop app for watermarking videos that’s available on Mac and Windows. It can handle large-sized video files much quicker than the web version. Its interface is slightly different, but it is just as intuitive. You won’t have any troubles understanding what buttons to press even if you’ve never watermarked videos before.
Perfect for Batch Processing
We guarantee high-speed processing of video files, regardless of their number or size. It’s perfectly possible for you to add a watermark to videos and get the results within just a few seconds. This is all thanks to the fact that your files will never be uploaded to a server. The entire processing will take place right in the browser.
Moreover, the process of watermarking a large batch of videos can be significantly simplified. Watermarkly automatically saves the last 10 templates that you’ve applied to at least one video. If you watermark videos regularly, you won’t have to create a new watermark from scratch every time. Instead, you can simply select one of the previously used templates, make some changes to it, if necessary, and download your watermarked videos. Super easy and quick!
Additional features for batch processing:
- Video watermark autoscaling. By default, the size of your watermark in pixels will be automatically adjusted according to the video dimensions. But if you need your watermark to be of the same size on all uploaded videos, then you can disable this option.
- Different watermark placement. There’s also an option for your watermark to be placed differently on different videos. If you enable it, the app will automatically position your watermark differently on each video in the batch.
On top of all that, please note that you can preview what your watermark will look like before actually applying it. It’s also possible to adjust the size and position of your watermark manually on every video in the batch. All of this can be done in the Preview & Adjust section.

FAQ
Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about watermarking videos.
What is a watermark on a video?
A watermark is a branded image, text, symbol or some other design that’s added to videos. Usually, it’s semi-transparent to remain unobtrusive. Its main purpose is to show who videos truly belong to. It indicates that your video content cannot be copied or used for commercial purposes without your permission. Watermarks can also be used for brand promotion. It’s best to add your logo to videos for this purpose.
How to make a watermark on my videos semi-transparent?
A semi-transparent watermark will be noticeable without distracting from your video content. And that’s exactly what you need. Fortunately, our app has a tool that allows you to change the level of transparency from 0 to 100%. After you add text or a logo, a panel with editing tools will show up; it can be right next to your watermark or on the right side of the screen, depending on whether you’re using the web-based or the desktop version. In this panel toggle the Transparency slider to make your watermark more or less transparent.
Should I watermark my videos?
Absolutely! Adding a watermark to your videos will help you safeguard your content when sharing it online. It will be a clear reminder that you’ve created this content and that it belongs to you. A watermark is an identifier that’s embedded into the video and distinctly indicates who the rightful owner of the content is. Your brand name or logo will make it highly challenging for someone to misuse or steal your video content.
How to watermark videos on Android or iPhone?
