Upload image for Shopify
Tap to select or drag and drop. JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC.
Your file never leaves this device.
Shopify accepts images up to 5000×5000 px and 20 MB, but uploading at the recommended sizes improves load speed and conversion rates.
Product image (recommended)
Enables Shopify zoom. Sharp on all Retina screens. Keep under 300 KB — use WebP or JPEG 80–85
2048 × 2048 px
1:1
Hero / slideshow banner
Place CTAs and text in the central 1200×600 px safe zone. Mobile themes crop edges aggressively
1920 × 1080 px
16:9
Collection / category image
Consistent square ratio keeps collection grids uniform. Some banner-style themes prefer 1920×1080
1024 × 1024 px
1:1
Blog featured image
Displayed at post top and in blog listing. Keep under 200 KB
1200 × 800 px
3:2
Social share / OG image
Shown when store or product pages are shared on Facebook, LinkedIn and X
1200 × 630 px
1.91:1
Upload as WebP for Shopify. Shopify's CDN automatically serves WebP to browsers that support it. Upload WebP files to give the CDN the cleanest possible source image — you get 25–35% smaller files than JPEG at the same quality, which directly improves page speed and conversion rates.
Consistent aspect ratios across products
Use the same ratio for every product image. Mixed ratios break collection grids and make your store look unpolished.
Safe zone for hero banners
Keep all text and CTAs inside the central 60% of banner images. Shopify themes — especially Dawn — crop heavily on mobile.
Compress before uploading
Shopify doesn't always compress optimally. Pre-compress to under 300 KB per product image for the fastest possible page loads.
Use square images for products
Shopify's 1:1 product image format ensures consistent thumbnails in collection grids on all themes without distortion.
Set OG images for product pages
Use a Shopify SEO app to set 1200×630 OG images per product. Rich link previews increase click-through rates from social shares.
Favicon: 32×32 px PNG
Upload a simple, high-contrast icon. Shopify generates all device-specific sizes automatically from one source file.
Need to compress your Shopify images to a specific size? Compress to 100 KB, 200 KB, or 500 KB.
Shopify recommends uploading product images at 2048×2048 pixels in a square (1:1) format. This size enables Shopify's built-in image zoom feature on desktop, displays sharply on Retina screens, and keeps file sizes manageable. Use a consistent square ratio across your entire product catalogue so collection grids always look uniform. Keep files under 300 KB by compressing with WebP or JPEG at quality 80–85.
The recommended Shopify hero and slideshow banner size is 1920×1080 pixels at a 16:9 ratio for standard HD displays. For stores targeting high-DPI 2K monitors, 2560×1440 pixels works well. Always place critical content — logos, text, CTA buttons — in the central 1200×600 px safe zone, because most Shopify themes crop the left and right edges significantly on mobile devices.
WebP is the best format for Shopify in 2026. Shopify's CDN automatically serves WebP to browsers that support it, giving you 25–35% smaller files than JPEG at the same quality. Upload as WebP and Shopify handles the rest. Use JPEG as a fallback for maximum compatibility. PNG is only needed for images with transparent backgrounds, such as logos or product photos with transparent cut-outs.
The recommended Shopify collection image size is 1024×1024 pixels at a 1:1 square ratio. Use the same dimensions for every collection image so your category grid stays visually consistent. Some Shopify themes display collection images as full-width banners, in which case 1920×1080 pixels works better — check your specific theme's documentation.
