Shopify Product Image Size: 2048 × 2048

Square product shots at the size Shopify's zoom needs — without dragging your page speed down.

Exact size 2048 × 2048 px Ratio 1:1 Max file 20 MB Formats JPG, PNG, WEBP Source Official
100% private. Your image is resized on your own device using your browser. It is never uploaded to a server, and there is no account to create.

Works with images up to roughly 50 MP (about 8000 × 6000 px) depending on your device's memory. WebP export is unavailable in a few older Safari versions — the option is disabled automatically when that is the case.

How it works

Three steps, no account, no watermark.

Add your image

Drag a file onto the box, click to browse, or paste straight from your clipboard with Ctrl + V. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Frame it

The crop box is already locked to 2048 × 2048. Drag the image to move it and scroll or pinch to zoom until it looks right.

Download

Pick PNG, JPG or WebP. The file is compressed automatically to stay under Shopify's limit — or grab every Shopify size at once as a ZIP.

About the shopify product image size

Shopify recommends square product images at 2048 × 2048 pixels. Square matters because almost every theme crops product cards to 1:1 on the collection grid — if your photos are a mix of portrait and landscape, that grid looks ragged no matter how good the individual shots are. 2048 is the size that gives Shopify's zoom enough detail to work without going overboard.

The other half of the job is weight. Shopify allows up to 20 MB per image, but a product page loading eight 15 MB photos is a page nobody waits for, and page speed is directly tied to conversion on mobile. Exporting a compressed 2048 × 2048 JPG — or WebP, which most themes now serve — gives you the sharpness of a large image at a fraction of the size.

Tips for Shopify

What actually makes the difference once the size is right.

Shoot and crop square

Collection grids crop to 1:1. Cropping to square yourself means you decide what stays in frame, not the theme.

Keep consistent margins

Products photographed at the same distance with the same padding make a catalogue look professional. Use the same zoom level across a batch.

White or one flat backdrop

A consistent background is what separates a store that looks stocked from one that looks improvised — and it compresses smaller too.

Compress before uploading

Shopify serves what you give it. A 2048 × 2048 JPG around 300–500 KB looks identical to a 6 MB one and loads several times faster.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Shopify product image size?

2048 × 2048 pixels, square. That is Shopify's recommendation and it gives the product zoom enough resolution without bloating the page.

What is Shopify's image file size limit?

20 MB per image, but you should aim far lower — a few hundred kilobytes per photo keeps product pages fast on mobile.

Should Shopify product images be JPG, PNG or WebP?

JPG or WebP for photographs. Use PNG only when you need a transparent background, for example a logo or a cut-out product on a coloured section.

Do all product photos need to be the same size?

Yes, ideally. Mixed ratios make collection grids crop inconsistently. The batch mode on this page resizes a whole set at once.

What size should a Shopify banner be?

1600 × 500 for a homepage slideshow, 1200 × 1200 for a collection image, 450 × 250 for the store logo. All are in the ZIP pack here.

Are my product photos uploaded to your server?

No. Everything is processed inside your browser, so your unreleased product photos stay entirely on your own machine.
