You've built a polished deck in Gamma.app, and now you need to share it. You hit Export, choose PDF or PowerPoint, open the file — and there it is: a small "Made with Gamma" badge sitting at the bottom of every slide. For a client pitch, a grant proposal, or a college submission, that branding can undermine an otherwise professional result.
This guide walks through the full export process, explains exactly where the badge appears and why, and lays out your two options for getting a clean file.
How to export a Gamma presentation
If you haven't exported before, here's the quick path:
- Open your deck on gamma.app and make sure you're happy with the content.
- Click the Share button in the top-right corner.
- Choose Export and pick your format:
- PDF — best for sharing read-only documents, printing, or email attachments.
- PowerPoint (.pptx) — best when the recipient needs to edit slides or when you want to present from PowerPoint or Google Slides.
- Wait a few seconds for Gamma to generate the file, then download it.
That's all it takes. The exported file is a fully standard PDF or PPTX that opens in any compatible app.
Where does the branding show up?
On the free tier, every exported file includes a "Made with Gamma" badge. Its exact form depends on the format:
- PDF exports — a small image with a clickable hyperlink sits in the bottom-right corner of each page. It links back to gamma.app.
- PPTX exports — a shape element with a gamma.app hyperlink lives on the slide master. Because the slide master underlies every slide, the badge repeats throughout the deck.
In both cases the badge is a separate object layered on top of your content. It does not alter your text, images, charts, or layout in any way — which is good news, because it means removal is straightforward and completely lossless.
Option 1: Upgrade to Gamma Pro
The most direct route is to subscribe to a paid Gamma plan. Pro users can export without any branding at all — the badge simply never gets added to the file.
This makes sense if you export frequently or if your team uses Gamma as a core tool. However, if you only need a handful of clean exports — say, once for a conference talk or twice a semester for coursework — a subscription may be more than you need.
Things to keep in mind
- Pricing and plan tiers may change; check gamma.app for the latest details.
- Even on Pro, it's worth double-checking your first export to confirm the badge is gone before sending the file out.
Option 2: Remove the badge after exporting (free)
If you'd rather not pay, you can export on the free tier and then strip the badge from the downloaded file. Because the watermark is a discrete object — not burned into your slide images — this can be done without any quality loss.
GammaRemover does exactly this. Here's how:
- Export your deck from Gamma as PDF or PPTX (the normal steps above).
- Open GammaRemover in your browser.
- Drop in the exported file. The tool identifies the badge and deletes it — nothing else is touched.
- Download the clean file.
The entire process takes a few seconds. There's no signup, no file-size paywall, and it handles files up to roughly 500 MB.
Privacy: nothing leaves your device
This matters more than most people realize. Presentations often contain revenue numbers, strategy details, or personal data. GammaRemover runs entirely in your browser via WebAssembly — your file is never uploaded to any server. When you close the tab, there is zero trace. That makes it the most private option available for post-export watermark removal.
Which option should you pick?
It depends on how often you export and how sensitive you are to recurring costs:
| Scenario | Recommended approach |
|---|---|
| You export clean decks weekly for clients | Gamma Pro is probably worth it |
| You need one clean PDF for a specific event | Remove the badge afterward for free |
| Your deck contains confidential data | Free removal in-browser — no upload risk |
| Your team already pays for Gamma | Use your Pro export; no extra steps |
For most occasional users, exporting on the free tier and removing the badge takes less time than evaluating a subscription.
Tips for a smooth export
- Check fonts and images before exporting. Gamma generally embeds everything, but a quick review catches layout surprises.
- Choose the right format. Need pixel-perfect fidelity for printing? Go with PDF. Need editability? Go with PPTX.
- Keep your original export. Always save the raw downloaded file before modifying it, so you have a fallback.
- Test with one slide first. If you're unsure how the badge looks in your specific template, export a single-slide deck as a quick test.
Wrapping up
Exporting from Gamma is simple — the only friction is the branding badge on free-tier files. You can either remove it at the source with a paid plan or strip it afterward in seconds with a free, browser-based tool. Either way, your audience sees a clean, professional deck.
