Amazon enforces strict Main Image guidelines for Seller Central listings. Non-compliant images can result in hidden search suppression, lost Buy Box eligibility, or listing removal. Understanding these rules is essential for every Amazon seller.

Amazon Main Image Checklist for 2026

• Pure White Background: The background MUST be pure white (RGB value 255, 255, 255). Off-white, grey, or soft drop-shadowed backgrounds are subject to algorithmic flags.

• Product Coverage: The main product must occupy 85% or more of the image frame area.

• Crisp Resolution: Minimum pixel dimensions of 1600px on the longest side (2000x2000px recommended) to enable zoom functionality.

• No Props or Text: No promotional badges, watermarks, text overlays, or unincluded accessories in the main image.
