eBay product photos that pass every check
Clean backgrounds, zoomable detail and no added text or borders. Shoot the item with your iPhone and let AI produce the gallery eBay buyers expect.
What eBay listings need
A checklist you can satisfy from a single phone photo.
A clean, uncluttered background
The safest choice is pure white, and it is the default in Zenith AI. Your item ends up isolated instead of competing with a kitchen table.
Enough resolution to zoom
Zoom needs a large image. Export at high resolution and upscale a smaller source shot so buyers can inspect condition, labels and wear.
No borders, text or watermarks
eBay asks for images that show the product, not decoration. Zenith AI adds no overlays, so nothing needs stripping out afterwards.
The item filling the frame
Crop tight enough that the product is the subject, without cutting off part of it. The studio presets keep the item centred and complete.
A full gallery, not one shot
Detail, scale and lifestyle images from the same source photo — buyers who can see everything ask fewer questions.
A consistent look across SKUs
One template for the whole shop, so your listings read as a professional store rather than a clear-out.
How it works
Photograph the item
Daylight near a window is enough. Keep the item flat to the camera and fill the frame.
Choose the background
Pure white for the main photo, then a detail crop, a scale reference or a lifestyle scene.
Export and upload
Download the gallery and upload it straight into your eBay listing.
FAQ
eBay image questions
What image size should eBay listings use?
eBay recommends at least 1600 pixels on the longest side, which is what enables the zoom feature. Zenith AI exports at high resolution and can upscale a smaller source photo, so a phone shot can still reach the zoom threshold. Check eBay's current image policy before publishing, as the guidance changes from time to time.
Does eBay require a white background?
eBay's main photo guideline is that the item should fill the frame and be clearly visible, with a clean, uncluttered background. A pure white background is the safest and most common choice, and it is the default treatment in Zenith AI.
Can I add text or watermarks to eBay photos?
eBay discourages adding text, borders or watermarks that are not part of the product itself, so it is best to publish clean images. Zenith AI's output contains no added overlays.
How many photos should an eBay listing have?
eBay allows a gallery of photos per listing and buyers respond to more of them. A common pattern is one clean main image on white, then detail shots, a scale reference and a lifestyle scene — all of which Zenith AI can produce from the same source photo.
