What each marketplace asks of the main photo

  • Shopee. The background and fill rules are Shopee Mall’s; Shopee publishes none for other sellers, so they count as advice there.
  • Lazada. Lazada’s own pages give no background or fill rule, and an older one gives a 1 MB limit; the 3 MB here is the newer.
  • A size for all three. Square at 2,048 × 2,048 pixels, the size Shopify recommends, is inside every limit and sharp when zoomed.

What size should a Lazada product photo be?
Between 330 and 5000 pixels on each side, up to 3 MB, as a JPG or PNG. Lazada does not require a square, but a square photo works on all three marketplaces.

Does the main photo need a white background?
Shopee Mall and TikTok Shop ask for a solid background and recommend white. Lazada publishes no rule. Plain white is the safe choice for all three.
Is my photo uploaded when I check it?
No. The checker runs in your browser and the photo never leaves your device. Closing the page forgets it.
