Size specs
Always square. Etsy shows the shop icon small in search, favorites, and shop chrome—bold geometry beats thin wordmarks.

Shop icons are tiny circles—design for the shrink
You upload a square, but Etsy often shows the shop icon as a circle or rounded tile in search results, favorites, and shop chrome. Anything in the four corners disappears once the mask applies.
500×500 is the practical recommended upload. That is enough clarity for modern screens without pretending the icon is a 2000×2000 listing photo. Soft 100×100 upscales look muddy next to crisp product shots.
Shop icon, shop banner, and listing photos are three different jobs. Do not stretch a 3360×840 banner into this square, and do not treat a product hero as your brand mark.
At favorite-list size the icon is a small disc. Fill most of the circle with a bold monogram or simple mark. Thin multi-word logos fail when the circle shrinks beside a shop name.
Good vs weak crop
Same circle mask—corners disappear; design for the tiny comment-size icon.
Reads as a tiny circle
- Mark centered in the guide
- True 500×500 square
- Bold shape that survives shrink
Corners or soft upscale
- Only branding in cut-off corners
- Banner strip stretched into a square
- Soft tiny file next to HD listings

Design for the circle, not the square upload
Corners of a square never appear once Etsy applies a circle or heavy rounding. Keep the monogram or symbol inside the guide. Leave rim detail out—busy edges look chopped in search.
- Center the mark before you export.
- Test at thumbnail size: if you cannot tell the brand, simplify.
- Coordinate color with the banner, but export two files.
Shop icon is not the banner
The banner is a short 4:1 billboard (3360×840). Forcing that strip into a square warps logos and hides type. Reuse color and photography if you want—re-crop for the circle.
- Shop banner size — 3360 × 840 header
- Listing photo size — 2000 × 2000 product still
File requirements
PNG suits flat marks and logos. JPG suits photographic icons. Prefer sRGB. Bold geometry survives Etsy recompression better than fine hairlines.

- Using a busy product photo that disappears at thumbnail size.
How to use the crop tool
Upload a logo, choose Shop icon (500×500), drag until the mark clears the circle guide, then download. Processing stays in your browser.
- Zoom until the mark fills most of the guide.
- Prefer PNG for a flat logo; JPG for a photo mark.
- After you publish, judge the circle in search—not only on edit screens.

Frequently asked questions
What size is an Etsy shop icon in 2026?
Upload a 500×500 square. It often displays as a circle or rounded tile—keep the mark centered.
Is the shop icon the same as the shop banner?
No. The banner is a wide 3360×840 header. The shop icon is a square circle-safe mark. Export them separately.
JPG or PNG for an Etsy shop icon?
PNG for flat logos, JPG for photographic marks. Export sRGB either way.
Why does my shop icon look soft?
Usually a small source was upscaled, or the mark sat in a corner the circle clipped. Re-export a true 500×500 with the subject centered.
Can I crop Etsy shop icons in the browser?
Yes. This guide includes an in-browser crop—files stay on your device until you download and upload to Etsy yourself.
