Image Optimizer for eBay Listings
Compress product photos for eBay to meet upload requirements, load faster on mobile, and look sharp in search results.
eBay allows up to 24 photos per listing and recommends images of at least 500×500 pixels — but the platform has a per-image file size limit and large images slow down your listing page on mobile devices, where over 60% of eBay purchases now happen.
Our image optimizer compresses your product photos to web-friendly sizes while keeping them sharp enough for eBay's zoom feature. Adjust quality precisely, preview the result, and download — ready to upload to your listing.

Download and add to your eBay listing. Faster-loading listings improve buyer experience and can boost search placement.
Why Image Quality Matters on eBay
eBay's search algorithm (Cassini) considers listing quality when determining search placement. Listings with clear, professional-looking photos consistently rank higher and sell faster. But "professional" does not mean "huge file size" — it means well-lit, properly framed, and sharp at the displayed size.
Buyers on eBay rely heavily on photos to assess an item's condition, especially for used goods, collectibles, and vintage items. The ability to zoom in on details like brand labels, serial numbers, wear marks, and included accessories directly impacts buyer confidence and willingness to purchase.
The key is compressing images enough to load quickly without sacrificing the detail that makes zoom useful. Quality 75–80 preserves zoom-level detail while cutting file sizes by 60–75%. For items where condition details matter (electronics, watches, sneakers), use quality 80–85 for the closest macro shots.
