Workflow
Prepare e-commerce product images
Marketplace listings need clean backgrounds, consistent framing, and fast-loading files. This workflow fits single-SKU photos and small batches before upload.

Before you start
Check your marketplace help center for required aspect ratio, minimum pixels, and background color. This workflow assumes a white or neutral catalog look unless your platform specifies otherwise.
Start from the largest master photo you have. Heavy edits should happen before final compression.
Remove or replace the background
Use Image Background Remover for clear product shots on busy tables or colored backdrops. Review edges and brush out halos before export.
Image Background RemoverCrop to marketplace ratio
Open Image Cropper with 1:1 or your platform ratio. Keep the product centered with even padding—many channels crop off-center uploads.
Image CropperResize to minimum pixels
Image Resizer sets width or height to the marketplace minimum (often 1000–2000 px) without changing the crop ratio.
Image ResizerCompress for fast catalog loading
Image Compressor with JPEG or WebP output. Aim for sharp edges on packaging text, not the smallest possible slider value.
Image CompressorBefore upload
- Background is clean and meets platform rules (often pure white)
- Product fills most of the frame without clipped edges
- File meets minimum dimensions and format (JPEG/WebP usually preferred)
- No accidental metadata from phone camera if listing location-sensitive goods
Do I need a studio sweep?
No. A phone photo on a plain surface works if background removal and cropping are careful.
Can I batch several SKUs?
Background removal is one file at a time today; compress and metadata tools support multi-file batches.
