For Amazon sellers

Amazon product image requirements (2026)

Amazon's image policy is the strictest of any major marketplace. The main image (MAIN) must have a pure white background (RGB 255,255,255), and the product must fill at least 85% of the frame. Get this wrong and your listing gets suppressed. Secondary images (PT01–PT08) are far more permissive — lifestyle, infographic, and context shots are encouraged. Here's the full 2026 spec sheet.

Amazon image requirements (2026)

Main image backgroundPure white — RGB (255, 255, 255). Non-white backgrounds trigger automated suppression
Product frame fillMinimum 85% of the image dimensions
Minimum dimensions1000 px on the longest side (required for zoom feature)
Recommended dimensions2000 × 2000 px or larger for best zoom quality
Maximum file size10 MB per image
Accepted formatsJPEG (.jpg) preferred, PNG, GIF, TIFF; WebP not yet accepted on Seller Central uploads (2026)
Color profilesRGB (Amazon's display pipeline assumes sRGB)
Image countUp to 9 images per listing (1 main + 8 secondary)
Disallowed in MAINWatermarks, text overlays, props, accessories not included in the product, color borders, model when only the product is sold

Best practices that move conversion

  • MAIN image: white background + 85% frame fill. Run a sanity check by saving the image and verifying the corners are exactly RGB 255
  • Secondary images: tell the story. Lifestyle, scale comparison, infographic with dimensions, packaging shot, A+ content teaser
  • Upload at 2000 px even though 1000 is the minimum — zoom-on-hover only activates when the image is large enough
  • Convert to JPEG before uploading. Amazon's WebP support is inconsistent across Seller Central UI surfaces as of 2026
  • Test on mobile — most Amazon buyers shop mobile, where the main image's framing matters even more

How Palmou AI lines up with Amazon's specs

Generate listing-ready images in seconds. Here's how each part of the output maps to Amazon's requirements.

Pure white background

The White Studio scenario outputs RGB-255 white. Verified compliant for Amazon's automated image policy checks.

85% frame fill

Scene-gen output centers and frames the product appropriately for the chosen scenario. White Studio specifically optimizes for marketplace frame fill.

Minimum 1000 px

Scene-gen output is ~1024 px on the longest side — meets Amazon's minimum. For 2000+ px, use the cutout-only flow which preserves source resolution and then composite on white.

JPEG conversion

Export the Palmou WebP and convert to JPEG via your usual tool (Squoosh, ImageMagick) before Amazon upload — straight WebP isn't reliably accepted on Seller Central yet.

FAQ — Amazon images

Does Palmou AI output meet Amazon's main image requirements?

Yes — the White Studio scenario produces a pure white (RGB 255) background. Make sure your product fills at least 85% of the frame in the source photo, since scene generation preserves the product's relative size.

Why can't I use the WebP output directly on Amazon?

Amazon Seller Central's image upload pipeline doesn't consistently accept WebP as of 2026. Export to JPEG with a tool like Squoosh (squoosh.app, free, browser-based) before uploading. The conversion is lossless if you use quality 95+.

Can I generate lifestyle / A+ content images with Palmou AI?

Yes — all six non-White scenarios (Marble, Beige, Urban, Nature, Gradient) work for Amazon secondary images and A+ content modules, which allow backgrounds and props.
