Amazon main image rules at a glance
- Background: pure white, RGB 255, 255, 255 (#FFFFFF). Near-white such as #FAFAFA can be flagged.
- The product should fill about 85% of the frame.
- At least 1,000 px on the longest side so shoppers can zoom; 2,000 px or more looks sharper.
- No text, logos, watermarks, borders or props that aren’t included in the sale.
- JPEG is the preferred file type.

How to make an Amazon white background
Upload the product photo
Use the sharpest, largest original you have. Phone photos and HEIC files work.
Keep the white background
This page starts on pure #FFFFFF white. Hold “compare” to check the edges.
Download a full-size JPG
Choose JPG and full size, then crop so the product fills about 85% of the frame.
Tips for Amazon listings
- Shoot on a plain, light surface with even light: cleaner edges, less retouching.
- Detailed products (jewellery, fabric, cables, fur) get much crisper edges with HD.
- Use the same white background on every main image for a consistent storefront.
- Secondary images can use lifestyle scenes; try a photo background with HD.
Frequently asked questions
What background colour does Amazon require?
Amazon requires a pure white background, RGB 255, 255, 255 (#FFFFFF), for the main product image. changebg sets exactly that value, so the background passes automated checks that reject near-white.
What size should Amazon product images be?
At least 1,000 px on the longest side, so the zoom feature works; 2,000 px or more is better. changebg downloads at your photo’s full resolution for free.
Should I upload JPG or PNG to Amazon?
JPG is Amazon’s preferred format and keeps files small. Because the background is solid white, nothing is lost by saving as JPG.
Can I remove backgrounds from many Amazon photos?
Yes, one after another: open a photo, download, then click “New image”. The free version has no limits; HD costs 1 credit per photo, from $0.15 with credit packs.
