The size our tools make for TikTok Shop

1200 × 1200 px, background: pure white (RGB 255, 255, 255), product: as large as the margin allows. The image resizer and the AI white background tool use this preset, which follows the rules above.

The TikTok Shop pages we could read do not state: recommended size, product fill and colour. We leave these out rather than guess.

Rules for some categories

  • Children's swimwear and undergarments: Displayed flat, without child models or mannequins.
  • Food: Shown with its food packaging.
  • Fashion and sports (US quality tiers): At least one image on a real human model, not only flat lays, ghost mannequins or hangers.

Other stated rules

  • The main image shows the front of the product, whole and not cut off.
  • Images must be in colour; black-and-white images are not accepted.
  • Placeholders and digital renderings of a product are not allowed (US).
  • Outside the US, text in the first image is in the local language only.
  • Minimums differ by market: 600 x 600 px in the US, 800 x 800 in the UK; the API takes 300 to 4000 px for main images.
  • At least 5 images are recommended.

  3. Fix the background
