Shopify's format line comes from our study of 199 Shopify stores, not from a Shopify rule. Everything else is from the sources below.

Amazon

Source: Amazon help page · Last checked 2026-10-12

Required

  • Amazon accepts 500–10,000px on the longest side.
  • Main product image needs a pure-white background and specific content.

Recommended

  • Amazon recommends over 1000px to enable zoom.
  • Amazon prefers JPEG (also accepts PNG/TIFF/GIF).

Also on the official page

  • GIFs must be non-animated.
  • Images under 500px on the longest side cannot be uploaded, and Amazon asks you not to enlarge small images artificially.
  • At least 72 dpi. RGB color mode is preferred.
  • Main image: a pure white background (RGB 255, 255, 255), the product filling about 85% of the frame, shown once, with nothing cut off.
  • For bulk uploads, file names follow product identifier + variant code + extension, for example B000123456.MAIN.jpg.

Etsy

Source: Etsy help page · Last checked 2026-10-12

Required

  • Etsy doesn't support transparent PNGs (transparent areas render black).

Recommended

  • Etsy recommends listing images at least 2000px on each side.
  • The first listing photo should be at least 635px.

Also on the official page

  • Supported file types: .jpg, .gif, .png, .svg and .heic. Animated GIFs are not supported.
  • Images larger than 1 MB may not finish uploading on a slow connection.
  • Etsy converts images to the sRGB color profile.
  • The first listing photo should be landscape or square. Etsy crops thumbnails to square, portrait and landscape, so leave space around the product.

Required

  • Daraz requires a square 1:1 image (equal height & width).
  • Daraz accepts JPEG or PNG.

How this page is kept accurate

  • Every rule above links to the marketplace's own help page and shows the date we last read it.
  • "Required" means the marketplace says so. "Recommended" means the marketplace suggests it. Our own preferences are not listed here.
  • Numbers that appear only on third-party blogs are left out on purpose. Some popular Daraz "specs", for example, do not appear in Daraz's official guidelines.
  • The same rules power BatchSet's marketplace presets, so a change here and a change in the tools happen together.
