Mercari Photo Size and Resizer
Drop in a photo and get a perfectly sized Mercari image back, cropped to square 1:1 at 1080 by 1080 pixels. Free, runs in your browser, and nothing leaves your device.
What size should Mercari photos be?
The recommended Mercari photo size is 1080 by 1080 pixels (square 1:1). Mercari leans on a square first photo, so a 1080 by 1080 image keeps the all-important cover sharp on every screen.
There is no strict minimum published, so aim for a crisp, high-resolution image rather than a small or blurry one.
How to resize a photo for Mercari
Drag a photo into the tool above, pick the Mercari size you want, then download the result. The resizer crops to the right shape and pads the edges where needed so nothing important gets cut off.
Everything happens in your browser, so your photo is never uploaded to a server and there is no watermark on the file you download.
Mercari photo requirements and limits
A listing holds up to 12 photos, so show the item from several angles and photograph any wear honestly. Good natural light and true colour matter most here: the first photo is what stops the scroll.
Accepted formats: JPEG, PNG.
Why clean, correctly sized photos sell faster on Mercari
On Mercari, the first photo is the thumbnail a buyer taps, so a sharp, correctly sized image on a tidy background gets more clicks than a dim snap on a messy floor.
Once your photo is sized, you can make the item itself look professionally shot while keeping it exactly as it is, same colour, fabric, prints and logos, with TidyPhotosUp.
