Custom Logo Upload (Agency Plan)

Step-by-Step: Upload Custom Logo
- Log in to your BreezeDoc account (Agency plan or eligible legacy plan required).
- Go to Settings ➜ Account or Branding.
- Find the Custom Logo or Upload Logo section.
- Click Choose File or Upload Logo button.
- Select your logo file from your computer (PNG or JPG).
- Click Upload or Save.
- Preview the logo to ensure it displays correctly.
- Your custom logo now appears:
- In email notifications sent to recipients
- On document signing pages
- On confirmation pages
Note: If Custom Logo option is not visible, verify your plan supports custom logos (Agency plan required).
Logo Design Best Practices
- Simple Design: Clean, professional logos work best at small sizes
- High Contrast: Ensure logo is visible on both light and dark backgrounds
- Transparent Background: Use PNG with transparency for versatile placement
- Horizontal Layout: Wide/horizontal logos fit better in headers than tall/vertical logos
- Test Display: Send test document to yourself to verify logo appearance
- Mobile-Friendly: Logo should be readable on mobile devices
Removing Custom Logo
- Go to Settings ➜ Account ➜ Custom Logo.
- Click Remove Logo or Delete button.
- Confirm removal.
- Logo is removed from future documents and emails.
- Agency plan users revert to unbranded appearance (no BreezeDoc logo, no custom logo).
Updating Logo
- Upload a new logo file using the same upload process.
- New logo replaces the old one automatically.
- Changes apply to all future documents and emails immediately.
- Already-sent documents and emails retain the old logo (not retroactively updated).
White Label Experience (Agency Plan)
What is White Label?
White label refers to removing all BreezeDoc branding so the signing experience appears to be entirely your own product:
- No BreezeDoc Mentions: Recipient never sees "BreezeDoc" name or logo
- Your Brand Only: Custom logo and your company name throughout
- Seamless Experience: Recipients think they're using your application
- Professional Appearance: No third-party branding dilutes your brand
Benefits of White Label
- Brand Consistency: Maintain your brand identity throughout signing process
- Professional Image: Present as established company with proprietary tools
- Client Confidence: Recipients trust fully-branded experience more
- Competitive Advantage: Differentiate from competitors using generic tools
- Agency/Reseller Use: Resell signing services under your own brand
What White Label Does NOT Include
- ❌ Custom Domain: URLs still use breezedoc.com domain (not yourcompany.com)
- ❌ Custom Email Sending Domain: Emails still sent from BreezeDoc servers
- ❌ Complete Rebrand: Some system pages may still reference BreezeDoc
- ❌ API Rebranding: API endpoints still use breezedoc.com
Workaround: Use custom redirect URLs (Pro/Agency feature) to send recipients to your own domain after signing.

Troubleshooting
Issue: Custom logo option not visible in settings
Fix: Verify your plan includes custom logo feature (Agency plan or certain legacy plans). Check Settings ➜ Account ➜ Plan to confirm plan tier. Free and Pro plans do not have custom logo option – upgrade to Agency plan for this feature. If you have Agency plan and still don't see option, try refreshing the page or clearing browser cache. Contact support if option should be available but is missing.
Issue: Uploaded logo appears distorted or pixelated
Fix: Upload higher resolution logo file (recommended 200x50 pixels minimum). Ensure logo file is not corrupted (test by opening in image editor). Use PNG format with transparent background for best results. Check logo aspect ratio – extremely tall or wide logos may not display well. Try different logo orientation (horizontal vs vertical). Send test document to yourself to preview actual appearance to recipients.
Issue: Logo not appearing in emails after upload
Fix: Wait a few minutes – logo changes may take time to propagate. Send new test email to verify logo appears (old cached emails may show old logo). Verify logo uploaded successfully (check Settings to see if logo is displayed). Ensure file uploaded correctly (try re-uploading). Check email client settings – some email clients block images by default. Ask recipient to "Show images" or whitelist your sender. If logo never appears, contact support for assistance.
Issue: Still seeing BreezeDoc branding despite having Agency plan
Fix: Verify you're logged into Agency plan account (check Settings ➜ Account ➜ Plan). Upload custom logo to replace BreezeDoc logo (Agency removes branding but doesn't auto-add your logo). Check specific pages – some system pages may retain minimal BreezeDoc references. Clear browser cache to see latest branding changes. If BreezeDoc branding persists on recipient-facing pages, contact support – this may be a bug.
Issue: Want to use different logos for different documents
Fix: BreezeDoc uses one logo per account – you cannot set different logos per document. Workaround 1: Create separate BreezeDoc accounts for different brands (not ideal). Workaround 2: Use custom redirect URLs to send recipients to brand-specific landing pages. Workaround 3: Design PDFs with specific branding embedded in the document itself. Request multi-logo support as feature from BreezeDoc team.
Issue: Recipient still sees BreezeDoc domain in URLs
Fix: This is expected – white label removes visual branding but documents are still hosted on breezedoc.com domain. Custom domains are not currently supported in BreezeDoc. Use custom redirect URLs (Pro/Agency) to send recipients to your domain after signing. For maximum branding, use iframe embedding of signing pages on your domain (requires technical setup). Contact BreezeDoc if custom domain support is critical for your use case.
FAQ
Q: Can I remove BreezeDoc branding on the Free plan?
A: No, Free plan includes full BreezeDoc branding. Upgrade to Pro plan for reduced branding or Agency plan for no branding and custom logo.
Q: Does custom logo work on completed PDFs?
A: Custom logo appears in emails, signing pages, and confirmation pages. Completed PDFs typically do not include logos (neither BreezeDoc nor custom) – they show only the original document content and signatures. Agency plan removes BreezeDoc branding from PDFs.
Q: Can I use custom domain instead of breezedoc.com?
A: BreezeDoc does not currently support custom domains. All documents are hosted on breezedoc.com. Use custom redirect URLs to send recipients to your domain after signing as workaround.
Q: How do I add branding to the actual PDF document?
A: Design your PDF with your branding (logo, colors, fonts) before uploading to BreezeDoc. BreezeDoc preserves your PDF design and adds signature fields on top. This works on all plans and is the best way to brand the actual document content.
Q: Does white label mean recipients never see "BreezeDoc"?
A: Agency plan removes BreezeDoc branding from recipient-facing elements (emails, signing pages, PDFs). However, URLs still use breezedoc.com domain, and some system pages may reference BreezeDoc. For 100% rebranding, additional measures like custom redirect URLs are needed.
Q: Can I white label BreezeDoc for reselling purposes?
A: Agency plan provides white label features suitable for reselling. However, check BreezeDoc's terms of service for any restrictions on reselling. Contact BreezeDoc sales for enterprise/reseller partnerships if you plan large-scale reselling.
