Can I add a team logo to a custom trading card?

Quick answer

Yes, on templates that include a logo slot. In the builder's details step, use the Team Logo control to upload an image; the background is removed automatically and the logo is placed where the template puts it. You must own the logo or have permission to use it, and the builder asks you to confirm that before it is applied.

Key takeaways

  • ✓Logo support depends on the template; look for one with a logo slot.
  • ✓Upload from the Team Logo control; the background is stripped automatically.
  • ✓A copyright acknowledgment is required before the logo is applied.
  • ✓Pro team and league logos need the owner's permission.

Which templates take a logo

Not every design has room for a logo, so the control appears only on templates built with a logo slot. If you need a logo on the card, pick a template that shows the Team Logo control in the details step rather than trying to add one to a design that has no place for it.

How the upload works

Choose Upload team logo, pick the file, and the builder removes the background so the mark sits cleanly on the card. Once uploaded, a logo is available to reuse on other cards from the same account, which keeps a team set consistent.

A clean, high-contrast logo file on a plain background gives the best result. A screenshot with other elements in it will not cut out cleanly.

Rights come first

The builder asks you to acknowledge that you have the right to use the logo before it is applied. Your own club's logo, used with the club's blessing, is the normal case. Professional team and league marks are trademarks, and the terms of service prohibit creating cards with copyrighted sports team logos without permission.

Where do I add the logo?

In the builder's details step, on a template that has a logo slot. The Team Logo control lets you upload a file and applies it to the card.

Does the logo need a transparent background?

No. The background is removed automatically on upload. A clean logo on a plain background cuts out best.

Can I use my kid's pro team's logo?

Only with permission from the owner. Pro team and league logos are trademarks, and cards with copyrighted team logos are not allowed without it. Your own youth club's logo is the usual case.

Yes. Once uploaded, the logo can be selected again on other cards from the same account.
