The generator includes nine ready-made ink colours, but sometimes you need an exact shade — your brand's precise blue, a campaign colour, or a tone to match a letterhead. The Custom colour option lets you set any colour you like and download it. One important note up front: custom colours are for digital downloads only and aren't available for physical stamp orders.
Two ways to set a custom colour
Choose Custom colour at the bottom of the ink-colour list and a small panel appears with two inputs that stay in sync:
- Colour picker. Tap the swatch and drag across the palette — on a phone you can slide your finger to preview shades live until the stamp looks right.
- Hex code. Prefer an exact value? Type a six-digit hex code with or without the hash, like
#1f9bd1or1f9bd1. The picker and preview update instantly.
Whichever you use, the whole seal — curved company name, registration text, icons and the ring — recolours to your chosen shade in the live preview.
Why custom colours are digital-only
A physical rubber stamp is made with a single, standard ink colour, so it can't reproduce an arbitrary custom shade. That's why selecting a custom colour disables ordering and add-to-cart — it keeps the physical product accurate to what the factory can actually produce. For a stamp you'll order, pick one of the standard colours instead; see our guide to stamp ink colours.
Great for digital documents and branding
Custom colours shine when the stamp lives on screen — a coloured "PAID" or "APPROVED" mark, a brand-matched seal on a digital invoice, or a decorative stamp for a personal keepsake. Combine a custom colour with a centre logo and a moved, resized image (see positioning your centre image) for a polished result.
Download with transparency
Your custom-coloured stamp downloads as a transparent PNG, so it drops cleanly onto documents with no white box. As always there's no watermark and no sign-up. Open the stamp generator to try a colour now, or read the full step-by-step guide.
