Facebook Marketplace Image Requirements
Listing Photos
- • Size: 1080 × 1080 pixels (recommended) or minimum 500 × 500 px
- • Aspect ratio: 1:1 (square) - displays best in feed
- • Format: JPEG (.jpg) or PNG (.png)
- • File size: Maximum 30MB
- • Limit: Up to 10 images per listing
Mobile-First Design
- • Mobile optimization: Most buyers browse on mobile - keep images clear
- • High contrast: Ensure product stands out from background
- • Clean backgrounds: White or simple backgrounds work best
- • Well-lit: Natural lighting produces best results
Why Square Format Works
Facebook displays Marketplace listings in a square format across mobile and desktop. The 1080×1080 size ensures your images look sharp on all devices, from smartphones to tablets and desktop computers. Square images also work well with Facebook's feed algorithm.
⚠️Facebook Marketplace Rules
- • No text overlays: Avoid adding price or promotional text to images
- • Accurate representation: Images must show the actual item being sold
- • No stock photos alone: Include at least one photo of your actual item
- • Clear and focused: Blurry or pixelated images may hurt visibility
- • Appropriate content: Must comply with Facebook Commerce Policies
Best Practices for Facebook Marketplace
- First photo is critical: Use your best image first - it appears in search
- Show all angles: Multiple photos build buyer trust
- Include scale: Show size with common objects for reference
- Natural lighting: Take photos near windows or outdoors in shade
- Show condition: Be honest about wear, defects, or damage
- Clean staging: Remove clutter from photos - focus on the item
- Quick listing: Post soon after taking photos while items are clean/staged
Mobile-First Photography Strategy
Mobile Matters
Optimizing for Mobile Screens
Facebook Marketplace is primarily a mobile experience. Your images must look great on small screens where buyers make split-second decisions while scrolling through dozens of listings.
Mobile Image Checklist:
- Use high contrast - product must stand out from background
- Fill the frame - product should occupy 70-80% of image
- Avoid small text or fine details that disappear on mobile
- Test on your phone before posting - view at thumbnail size
Facebook Marketplace vs Other Platforms
