Compress Meta catalog images to 8MB, JPEG or PNG, 1:1 ready

Meta's catalog spec is narrower than Google's. Product images must be JPEG or PNG, no larger than 8MB, and images used for Shops on Facebook and Instagram are displayed square, so they need at least 500x500 pixels with 1024x1024 recommended. That square requirement is where most catalogs break: a landscape hero shot from a website gets center-cropped into a 1:1 tile, and whatever was near the frame edges disappears. Meta also recommends four or more images per product for carousel ads and shop listings, which multiplies the upload weight by four per SKU. Compressing to roughly 1024x1024 at a few hundred kilobytes gives you a square master that renders crisply, stays far under 8MB, and keeps all four slots light. Skwish resizes and compresses in the browser with a per-file readout, batch queue and ZIP export. Files stay on your device.

Meta catalog specifics

Use these before you upload or share the page.

JPEG or PNG only. WebP and TIFF are accepted by Google and rejected by Meta, so keep a JPEG master as the shared file.

8MB is the hard cap and 500x500 is the floor. Aim for 1024x1024 at 200-400KB and you clear both with room to spare.

Changing an image requires a new URL. Meta will not re-read a file at the same link, so append a version suffix when you replace one.
