How to prep a
ebay photo.
— 01
Shoot all condition details first
For used items, eBay requires photos showing actual condition — wear, defects, all sides. Don't background-remove these; they need to read as authentic.
— 02
Process the hero shot through inkurs
Drop your main photo. Get a clean transparent PNG that improves search-result thumbnail readability.
— 03
Place on white in your editor
For best listing visibility, place the transparent PNG on a pure white canvas. Improves click-through from search results.
— 04
Upload mix of hero + condition photos
Hero shot on clean background, condition shots in context. eBay sellers with this mix see higher conversion.
— Common questions
FAQ.
Does eBay require white backgrounds like Amazon?
No — eBay is flexible. White or neutral backgrounds rank better in search and improve click-through, but aren't strictly enforced. For featured Buy It Now listings, white is strongly recommended.
Should I background-remove photos of used items?
Only the hero shot. Condition photos showing wear, scratches, and authenticity should stay as-shot — eBay buyers expect raw condition documentation, and removing it can read as hiding flaws.
Can I use inkurs for high-volume eBay reselling?
Yes — Pro at $3/month handles 50-image batches, useful for daily inventory processing. Many active resellers list 20+ items per day; bulk processing reduces per-item turnaround time.
Is inkurs really free with no signup?
Inkurs is free for single-image use with no account, no email, no watermark, and no daily limit. Pro at $3/month adds bulk uploads and API access. The single-image tool stays free, forever.
Do you store or train on my uploaded images?
Inkurs deletes both the uploaded file and the processed output from its servers within 60 seconds of your download. We do not train AI models on user images, share data with advertisers, or retain copies. Privacy policy →
What image formats and sizes does inkurs accept?
Inkurs accepts PNG, JPG, WEBP, HEIC, and BMP files up to 20MB on the free tier. Output is a transparent PNG by default; WEBP is also available. Pro extends the file size cap and adds 8K output.
How does inkurs compare to removebg and Photoroom?
Inkurs gives full HD output free with no signup, while removebg gates HD behind a paid account ($9.99/mo) and Photoroom requires signup for most features ($12.99/mo). Inkurs Pro is $3/month flat. Detailed comparison →
