How To REMOVE Base44 Badge (“Edit with Base44” Button)

When you publish an app with Base44, you’ll often notice their branding appear somewhere in your project. This could be a small “Edit with Base44” badge, their logo, or another watermark visible on your live site.

A lot of users ask how to remove that badge or branding.
If that’s you, here’s what I’ll cover:

• How to hide or remove the Base44 badge
• Free ways to publish without Base44 branding
• Alternatives if you want zero Base44 marks on your app

It’s the same if you want to export Base44 code as well.

Let’s begin.

How To Remove Base44 Watermark (Paid)

Answer: You need to be a paid plan higher than Starter ($40/mo+) to remove Base44’s badge. To do it, open your app’s settings and untick “Platform Badge”.

1. Open your Base44 app
2. Click Dashboard > Settings > App Settings
3. Untick the “Platform Badge” setting

This will hide the “Edit with Base44” and “Build with Base44” badges from this particular app. If you want to hide it from other apps, you’ll have to do the same for each individual app.

How To Hide Base44 Badge (FREE Method)

The only free way to hide Base44’s badge from your app is to ask the AI to globally hide anything with the ID “base44-badge” in the CSS code.

Basically, you’re asking the AI: Hey, don’t remove Base44’s watermark, but hide it from any live page on my previewed or published app.

1. Open your Base44 app
2. Send this prompt: “Add to the CSS to globally hide anything with the ID base44-badge”.”
3. Base44 will automatically remove the badge

Every Base44 app includes a small badge element inside the project’s HTML. It’s wrapped in an element with the ID base44-badge (or a similar class name).

By adding a CSS rule that targets that element and sets display: none, you’re telling the browser not to render it.

Because the rule is added to your global styles, it hides the badge across your entire app — no need to remove it page by page.

In short: The badge still exists in the code if someone inspects it, but for regular visitors, it’s completely invisible.

Remove Base44 via Code (Paid, But Cheaper!)

Answer: To hide the Base44 badge with code, open your app, go to the Layout.js file, and manually add a rule to remove it. Follow these steps:

1. Open your app in Base44
2. Click the “> _” button and “See all files”
3. Go into the “Layout.js” file
4. Add this line of code: “base44-badge { display: none !important; }”

You can just copy-paste this line right here:

This line of CSS hides the Base44 badge from view by telling the browser not to render it. The badge still exists in your app’s code if someone inspects it, but regular visitors won’t see it on your live site.

It’s a quick, harmless visual tweak that removes Base44 branding across all your pages once and for all.

Troubleshooting: Why You Can’t Remove Base44 Badge

If you’re still seeing the Base44 badge after upgrading, here’s why:

You need to be on at least the Builder plan ($40/month) to remove Base44’s watermark. Even if you’re paying for the first paid tier (the Starter plan, $16/month) the badge will stay visible.

Base44 only allows branding removal for Builder, Pro, and Elite users.
The lower tiers don’t include that toggle in settings.

Check the full plan breakdown here: Base44 Pricing Guide

Once you’re on the right plan, open your app’s Settings → Platform Badge, and untick it to hide Base44’s logo from your app.

Base44 Alternative: Honest About Badges

We’ll be 100% upfront: Shipper also includes a small badge by default. The difference is, we don’t hide it behind paywalls or make it confusing to remove.

If you want to keep it, awesome – it helps support the platform.
If you don’t, you can remove it instantly with the same CSS method shown above.

→ Shipper vs Base44

Other than that, Shipper gives you:

• Full code access — edit, export, or deploy anywhere
• AI that builds and fixes apps automatically
• Custom domains included from day one

So if you want a builder that’s transparent about branding (and gives you full control), you’ll probably like Shipper.now.

FAQ: Edit with Base44

1. Can I hide the Base44 logo?

Yes, you can hide the Base44 logo. If your plan includes the Platform Badge toggle, go to Settings → Platform Badge and turn it off.

2. Can I remove Base44 badge only on selected pages?

Yes, but you’ll need to target those specific pages with custom CSS. For example:

.page-home #base44-badge { display: none !important; }

This hides the badge only on pages that have the class page-home. You can replace it with any page-specific class or ID.

3. How do I remove the Base44 logo?

If you’re on a lower plan without that setting, you can hide it manually by adding this to your CSS:
“base44-badge { display: none !important; }”.

This hides the logo across your entire app.

If you’re paying for Base44, you’re getting multiple perks such as the removed logo and access to custom domains.
