eBay Image Size

Quick Answer

eBay requires at least one listing photo with 500 px on the longest side. A safer working target is 1600 px on the longest side or a clean 1600 x 1600 px square when the product fits well. Keep the product sharp, centered and free of text, borders or promotional overlays.

Quick Reference

  • Minimum: 500 px on the longest side
  • Safe working size: 1600 x 1600 px or 1600 px long side
  • Practical format: JPG or PNG
  • Main photo: product clear, clean and accurate
  • Publish use: create a clean image checklist before upload

Prepare in one place

Publish Action

Turn this rule into a product image, title, description or checklist workflow in Publish.

Use one preparation flow for sizes, titles, descriptions, keywords, and checklists instead of switching between separate tools.

Important Notes
  • More and clearer photos usually improve buyer trust.
  • The first photo has to communicate the product quickly in search results.
  • Avoid adding sales text, logos, watermarks or decorative borders to the main product image.
Best Practices
  • Export one square master image and crop variants from it.
  • Keep the item large enough to understand on mobile.
  • Use additional photos for details, scale, condition and packaging.
  • Check the listing preview before publishing.
Common Mistakes
  • Uploading a 500 px image that looks blurry when zoomed.
  • Placing text or a sale badge on the product photo.
  • Showing accessories that are not included.
  • Leaving too much empty space around a small item.
Do / Don't Examples
  • Do: 1600 x 1600 px, product centered, clean background, sharp edges.
  • Don't: 600 px blurry photo with text, border and unrelated props.
  • Do: add detail photos for condition and scale.
  • Don't: make the buyer guess what is included.
Publish Action

Use Publish to prepare the main image, detail images and a final eBay listing checklist in one workflow instead of jumping between image tools and notes.
