Quick summary

This tutorial shows you how to add an image as a footer in PowerPoint using the Slide Master, so your logo or branding appears consistently on every slide.

Steps

Go to the View tab in PowerPoint.
Click Slide Master located in the Master Views section.
In the left-hand thumbnail pane, scroll to the top and select the larger master slide.
Go to the Insert tab.
Select Pictures from the Images group.
Choose your image file and click Insert.
Position and resize your logo to fit the bottom corner (footer area).
Right-click the image and select Send to Back.
Go to the Slide Master tab.
Select Close Master View to apply changes to all slides.
Your image footer now appears consistently across the entire presentation.

📌 Why this matters

Adding an image as a footer in PowerPoint using the Slide Master ensures your logo or brand graphic appears on every slide automatically, eliminating the need to edit slides one by one. This technique is essential for maintaining consistent branding across professional presentations, pitch decks, and company templates. Using the Slide Master to insert and send the image to the back keeps it unobtrusive and prevents accidental edits during normal editing. It is the most reliable method for applying a persistent image footer in PowerPoint without disrupting slide content.
