Prepare Amazon listing images on Mac — the main-image white-background rule, 1600px+ zoom requirement, accepted sizes and formats, and a batch workflow for whole catalogues. All local, no uploads.
Treat image prep like a pipeline: clear rules, saved presets, and QA checkpoints.
Decision Guide
A hub for e-commerce image preparation on Mac — storefront compression, marketplace dimensions, batch naming, and export-safe workflows for Shopify, Amazon and Etsy, all processed locally.

Amazon requires the main product image to sit on a pure white background (RGB 255,255,255) with no text, logos or props. Non-compliant main images can be suppressed from search.
Amazon enforces specific rules, and getting them wrong can suppress a listing or disable zoom. The longest side should be at least 1000px to display, but 1600px or more is the real target because it unlocks the zoom feature that shoppers expect. Images up to around 10000px on the longest side are accepted.
Accepted formats are JPEG (preferred), PNG, GIF and TIFF, in the sRGB or CMYK colour space — though sRGB is the safe choice for web display. The product should fill about 85% of the frame, and the main image must be a real product photo on a pure-white background with no text, watermarks or extra props.
The rules differ between the main image and the rest of the gallery, so treat them as separate presets.
Resolution and colour accuracy matter more on Amazon than raw file size, but you still want fast-loading images. Aim for 1600–2000px on the longest side so zoom looks sharp, convert everything to sRGB so colours match across devices, and compress with JPG quality high enough to avoid artifacts on product detail.
Because zoom magnifies the image, compression artifacts and soft focus are more visible than on a normal storefront. Keep quality on the higher side for the main and hero shots, and validate at zoom level before publishing a batch.
Sellers updating many listings shouldn't prepare images one at a time. Build a preset per image type — white-background main, standard secondary — and run the catalogue through in one pass.
Defaults that keep an Amazon image batch compliant:
At least 1000px on the longest side to display, but 1600px or more to enable zoom. 2000px is a good target for crisp zoom, in sRGB JPG.
Yes. The main image must show the product on a pure-white background (RGB 255,255,255) with no text, logos or props. Secondary images can be lifestyle or infographic shots.
JPEG is preferred, with PNG, GIF and TIFF also accepted. Use the sRGB colour space so colours display accurately on the web.
Yes. Build presets for main and secondary images, then resize, convert and export an entire folder of products in one batch with SKU-mapped naming.
Yes. A local tool processes everything on your Mac, so nothing is uploaded to a server and there is no per-image cost.
