WooCommerce Image Product Badges

Overview​

Image Labels display a graphic badge on your products — either one of the plugin's 200+ ready-made designs or your own uploaded image (a logo, seasonal sticker, or custom graphic). Image labels are the best choice when you want a polished, illustrated look that plain text can't achieve.

Examples of image labels on products

Use WooCommerce image badges and WooCommerce image labels when a visual WooCommerce product sticker will communicate a promotion faster than text. Sale Booster also supports a custom product badge and a branded WooCommerce sale sticker uploaded from the Media Library.

How it works​

Black Friday is coming. Instead of designing anything, you open the Image Labels tab, pick the ready-made "Black Friday" graphic from the library, place it in the top-left corner, and target All Products. Every product instantly wears a professional holiday badge — and after the event you simply disable the badge.

Free vs Pro

A small set of image labels ships with the Free version. The full library is a Pro feature, organized into these categories: Sale, Percentage Off, Buy One Get One, Cyber Monday, Coming Soon, Pre-Order, Free, New, Shipping, Sold Out, Offer, Black Friday, Valentine's Day, and Xmas — each with multiple ready-made designs. Use the category filter at the top of the gallery to jump to a set.

Step-by-step setup​

1. Choose or upload an image​

In the Image Labels tab:

  • Use the library — browse the categorized gallery and click a design to apply it.
  • Upload your own — click Upload Image and pick a graphic from the Media Library (a PNG with a transparent background looks best).

2. Size and position it​

Set the width, corner, and offsets so the badge sits neatly on the image, then Save.

Best practices
  • Upload badges at 2× the display size (e.g. a 180px PNG for a 90px badge) so they stay sharp on retina screens.
  • Use transparent PNGs so the badge blends with any product photo.
  • Pair image labels with a Schedule so seasonal graphics turn off by themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions​

How do I add a custom image product badge in WooCommerce?​

Create or edit a badge, open Image Labels, click Upload Image, and choose the graphic from the Media Library. A transparent PNG usually blends best with product photography.

Are WooCommerce image labels available in the free version?​

The Free version includes a small set of image labels. The complete ready-made image badge library and its category collections require Sale Booster Pro.

What size should a WooCommerce sale sticker be?​

Upload the image at about twice its intended display size—for example, a 180px PNG for a 90px badge—so it stays sharp on high-density screens.
