Upload your own badge image

Use your own artwork on an image badge by uploading a file from your computer or importing it from a direct image link.

Besides the built-in image library, Sami Product Labels lets you use your own artwork on an image badge. You can upload a file from your computer or import an image from a URL. Uploaded images are saved in your own image list, so you can reuse them on other badges later.

Prepare an image that matches the recommendations shown in the badge editor:

Requirement Recommended value
File formats PNG, JPG, SVG
Maximum size 5 MB
Dimensions 512 × 512 px
  1. In Shopify admin, open Sami Product Labels > Badges & Labels.

  2. Click Create badge, then in Choose badge type click Create on the Image badge card.

    To change the image of an existing badge instead, click the pencil icon in that badge’s row, then click Change Image in the Content section.

    Choose badge type dialog with the Image badge option

    Select Image badge to start a badge that uses a graphic.

  3. The Select Image panel opens on the right with a default image already applied. Next to Source, click Design your Images.

    This tab holds everything that belongs to your store: images you uploaded, images imported from a URL, and AI-generated images. The first two tiles are the actions Upload from URL and Upload image.

    Select Image panel with the Library and Design your Images source tabs

    Design your Images contains your own artwork, plus the Upload from URL and Upload image actions.

Choose the way that fits your artwork.

  1. Click the Upload image tile. Your computer’s file picker opens.

Use this when your artwork is already online, for example in your Shopify Content > Files library.

    Paste a direct image link, then click Add image.

  2. Paste a link that ends with the image file itself, such as https://example.com/badge.png. A link to a web page that merely shows the image does not work.

  3. The message The image uploaded appears and the image is added to Design your Images as a new tile named Custom Image.

    If you see Something went wrong, please try again, the link could not be downloaded — see Troubleshooting below.

    The badge now uses your own image.

Hover over any tile in Design your Images to reveal two icons:

  • Pencil — rename or edit the image.
  • Trash — delete the image from your list.

You can also click Edit with AI at the bottom of the panel to modify the selected image with the AI editor.

After the image is applied:

  1. Set the badge size in the Size section — keep Lock aspect ratio ticked so the image is not stretched.
  2. Adjust Position, then set targeting on the Products and Display tabs.
  3. Choose Active or Draft, then click Save.

See Create an image badge for the full set of steps.

Problem What to do
Something went wrong, please try again The link is not a direct image link, the file is private, or the host blocks other sites from loading its images. Try another host, or download the file and use Upload image instead.
The badge looks blurry Upload a larger image — around 512 × 512 px — instead of enlarging a small one.
The image has a white box around it Use a PNG or SVG with a transparent background.
The file is rejected Check that it is PNG, JPG, or SVG and smaller than 5 MB.
