Amazon main images need pure white, a product that fills the frame and enough pixels for zoom. Here is how to hit all three in minutes.
Amazon's main-image rules are strict: a pure white background (RGB 255, 255, 255), the product filling about 85% of the frame, no added text, logos or props, and at least 1000 pixels on the longest side so the zoom feature turns on.
Listings that fail get suppressed or rank worse, so it is worth getting the main image right once. Remove the background, place the item on pure white, and upscale if your source is too small for zoom.
Cut out the product: Upload your photo to the Background Remover. Precision mode keeps clean edges on packaging and fabric.
Fill the frame: Crop so the product takes up roughly 85% of the image and place it on pure white.
Check the size: If the longest side is under 1000px, run it through the Image Upscaler (2x) so Amazon's zoom works.
Compliant white: Exact #FFFFFF, which is what Amazon's automated checks sample.
Zoom-ready: Upscaling with Real-ESRGAN adds real pixel density rather than blurry interpolation.
Secondary images too: For lifestyle shots, swap the background to a scene with the AI Photo Editor instead.
What size should Amazon images be? At least 1000px on the longest side to enable zoom; Amazon recommends 1600px or more. 2000px is a safe target.
Can my main image have a shadow? A natural, subtle shadow is generally tolerated, but props, text, badges and coloured backgrounds are not allowed on the main image.
Do secondary images need white backgrounds? No. Secondary images can show the product in use, in a scene, or with infographics.
