Meesho product image requirements (2026).
Meesho requires catalog images on a clean white background, square (1:1) aspect ratio, with the product centred and clearly visible. Minimum 600×600 px is accepted but 1000×1000 px or higher is recommended; the hero must be free of text, watermarks, brand logos, and contact details. Meesho's catalog quality score weighs image clarity heavily, and listings that fail the white-background or no-text checks are rejected at upload rather than silently demoted.
The numbers, at a glance.
Hard rules — break these and your listing is demoted.
- Hero image on a clean white background.
- Square (1:1) aspect ratio — non-square images are rejected at upload.
- No text, watermarks, brand logos, web addresses, or phone numbers on any image.
- Product centred and occupying the majority of the frame.
- Image must match the product being shipped — Meesho actively de-lists mismatches.
- No collage or multi-product grids in the hero slot.
Recommendations the top sellers ship.
- Ship 1000×1000 px or larger — Meesho's quality score rewards clarity and Meesho buyers shop on mid-range phones where blur hurts.
- Keep the product on plain white for the hero; use secondary slots for fit, scale, and detail.
- For apparel, a clean ghost-mannequin or flat-lay reads better than a busy model shot at thumbnail size.
- Avoid heavy filters — Meesho's classifier flags over-processed images as inconsistent with the shipped product.
- Name files descriptively before upload; it helps internal catalog organisation even though Meesho's public search is title-led.
What to put in each image slot.
Mistakes that silently down-rank listings.
- 01Text, price stickers, or phone numbers on the image — an instant rejection on Meesho.
- 02Non-square images — Meesho's uploader will not accept them for the hero.
- 03Off-white or coloured backgrounds on the hero.
- 04Reusing a supplier's watermarked image — flagged and de-listed.
- 05Low-resolution images that blur on mid-range Android phones, where most Meesho buyers shop.
Common questions about Meesho product images.
01What size should Meesho catalog images be?
Meesho accepts a minimum of 600×600 pixels but recommends 1000×1000 or higher, in a square (1:1) aspect ratio. Higher resolution improves the catalog quality score and reads better on the mid-range Android phones most Meesho buyers use.
02Does Meesho require a white background?
Yes — the hero image must be on a clean white background, square, with the product centred and no text, watermarks, logos, or contact details. Images that fail these checks are rejected at upload, not silently demoted.
03Can I use AI-generated images on Meesho?
Yes, as long as the image accurately represents the product being shipped and meets Meesho's catalog rules (white background, square, no text). Meesho does not separately regulate AI generation as of 2026, but it actively de-lists images that don't match the delivered product.
04Why does Meesho reject my product images?
The most common reasons are: text or contact details on the image, a non-square aspect ratio, an off-white or coloured background, or a supplier watermark. Fix those four and most rejections disappear.
