# Product video specs for Shopify, Instagram, TikTok and Amazon > The formats, shapes, file sizes and lengths each platform accepts for a product video, in one table, with the length that works best for a product ad on each. Canonical: https://filmagic.app/blog/product-video-specs Last updated: 2026-10-28 You made one product video. Now it has to go on your Shopify product page, in Instagram Reels, on TikTok and maybe on Amazon, and each one wants something slightly different. This page puts the limits side by side, from each platform's own help pages, plus the length that tends to work for a product ad. > **The short version:** make one 15 to 30 second edit, export 9:16 for Reels and TikTok and 1:1 or 16:9 for your product page, as MP4, and you're well inside every limit below. ## At a glance | Platform | Shape | Formats | Max file size | Max length | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Shopify product media | Any; 16:9 or 1:1 suit most themes | MP4, MOV, WebM | 1 GB | 10 minutes, up to UHD | | Instagram Reels | 9:16 vertical | See Instagram | See Instagram | 3 minutes | | TikTok in-feed ads | 9:16 recommended; 16:9 and 1:1 accepted | MP4, MOV, MPEG, 3GP, AVI | 500 MB | 10 minutes | | Amazon shoppable videos | Not specified | MOV, MP4 | 5 GB | See Seller Central | Limits change, so check the linked help page before a big campaign. The figures above were checked in October 2026. ## Shopify Shopify's help center lists MOV, MP4 and WebM files up to 1 GB, 10 minutes long and UHD resolution. YouTube and Vimeo links have their own rules. Upload from **Products**, then the product, then **Upload new** in the **Media** section. - **Best length for a product page:** 15 to 30 seconds. Visitors are already on the page; show the product, a few angles and stop. - **Shape:** 16:9 or square, to match your product photos. A vertical video can look small in a wide gallery. - **Sound:** many visitors watch without it, so put the key words on screen.

Reels fill the phone screen vertically, so export 9:16 (1080 × 1920 is the usual size) and keep text away from the bottom, where the caption and buttons sit. - **Best length for a product ad:** 15 to 30 seconds. The first two seconds decide whether people keep watching, so open on the product, not a logo.

Files can be MP4, MOV, MPEG, 3GP or AVI, up to 500 MB and up to 10 minutes. - **Best length for a product ad:** 9 to 30 seconds. Show the product in the first second and put the price on screen.

Uploading needs a Professional selling account with at least three months of selling history and live listings. Check Seller Central for the length and content rules before you upload.

[Filmagic's product URL to video](https://filmagic.app/product-url-to-video) builds the edit from your product page (its photos, name, price and rating) and exports 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 from the same edit.
