Top Sticker Trends in 2022

Every year, sticker trends evolve — new materials, styles, and uses emerge while others fade. Brands and businesses are always looking for fresh, cost-effective ways to promote themselves. In today’s fast-moving world, where social media and the internet dominate, promotional trends change quickly. But one thing remains steady: custom stickers are a timeless, fun, and affordable way to get your brand noticed.

People love stickers! Use them as freebies with orders, gifts for employees, giveaways for customers, or event handouts — the possibilities are endless. To help you stay ahead, here are the top 2022 sticker trends you don’t want to miss.

Holographic Stickers

Holographic stickers are huge this year, bringing a nostalgic ‘90s vibe with their shimmering, rainbow-like shine. We offer two main types: full-color printed holographic stickers, and one-color holographic transfer stickers cut from glittery holographic material. Both options add dazzling effects that catch the light beautifully and make your designs pop.

Sticker Sheets

Sticker sheets let you showcase multiple designs and logos on one handy sheet. They’re perfect for subscription boxes, gift baskets, or any creative way you want to engage your audience beyond just a single sticker. Give your branding a playful, versatile boost with sticker sheets.

Die-Cut Logo Stickers

Logo stickers never go out of style — in fact, they’re more popular than ever. A die-cut logo sticker is cut precisely to the shape of your logo, making it eye-catching and instantly recognizable. They stick to laptops, water bottles, phone cases, cars, and more. Hand them out, sell them, or gift them to employees — every sticker spreads your brand like wildfire.

Water Bottle Stickers

Water bottle stickers have exploded in popularity, especially on social media platforms like TikTok, where users share videos decorating or refreshing their “emotional support water bottles.” With growing awareness around sustainability and reusable bottles, these waterproof, durable stickers that last up to five years are perfect for personalizing hydration gear without leaving residue when removed.

Photo Stickers of Your Pets

Show off your furry friends with custom photo stickers! Whether it’s dog stickers or cat stickers, these personal keepsakes keep growing in popularity. A 2021 survey showed 76% of Millennials prefer pets over kids — so it’s no surprise pet pride is booming. Use our easy design tool to remove backgrounds and create fun, unique stickers of your pets to decorate your laptop, phone, mugs, and more.

QR Code Stickers

QR code stickers are the modern business card. Their popularity skyrocketed during the pandemic as restaurants and bars shifted to digital menus. These durable stickers stick right to tables and other surfaces, avoiding messy paper menus and enabling quick, contactless access. Beyond hospitality, QR code stickers are great for trade shows, vehicle branding, gift shops, and more — helping customers easily connect to your website or promotions.

There you have it — the hottest sticker trends for 2022. Trends will keep shifting, so it’s smart to jump on what’s popular now. But don’t forget — classic logo stickers will always be a winning choice to boost your brand’s visibility and appeal.
