Pinterest Pin Size

Quick Answer

For standard Pinterest image Pins, a vertical 2:3 layout is the safest starting point. Pinterest recommends 1000 × 1500 px for images, while its Pin specs also support multiple image file types and show a 20 MB web upload limit for image Pins.

Important Notes

  • Very tall Pins can be cropped or feel less predictable in feeds.
  • Pinterest is heavily mobile-driven, so vertical creative is usually safer than wide horizontal creative.
  • Organic Pin specs and ad specs may differ, especially around descriptions and campaign placements.

Best Practices

  • Use a clean vertical composition with the main idea visible at a glance.
  • Keep important text away from edges and crowded areas.
  • Use high-resolution product, tutorial, or idea-focused visuals.
  • Test whether the Pin is still readable when shown as a small feed preview.

Common Mistakes

  • Designing only for desktop instead of mobile.
  • Using too much text overlay.
  • Placing important text or product details too close to the edges.
  • Reusing a square Instagram-style image without checking how it performs on Pinterest.
