Our Shopify Photo Editing Apps

Users can purchase credits starting at $2 per image. We also have specially designed packages available for larger stores needing a greater number of edits.

What To Do First
Upload an Order
Pixc’s streamlined, easy-to-use dashboard offers 2 hassle-free upload options. You can upload your images directly from your Shopify store or you can upload images via your computer.
Pixc’s uploading system is designed to improve your workflow and productivity. It allows you to specify your requirements and save your preferred template for even faster – single click – future orders.
Create and Save Your Template
Pixc’s templates are predefined sets of editing instructions. You have three options to choose from – Pixc Default, Amazon, and Custom. The Custom template allows you to set the parameters you prefer, save the template, and use it for future orders.
1. Pixc Default
Our default template is optimized for most eCommerce platforms and boasts our basic editing features – background removal and white background imaging.
2. Amazon Template
This template is made according to Amazon’s image guidelines – a white background, square image size, and 100px border.
3. Custom Template
As the name implies, this template allows you to customize your order according to your store’s specific needs. To keep things organized, you can give your template a name and save it for use in future orders. Your saved template will appear under ‘Recent Templates’ when you are submitting a new order.
Our Special Features
Editing Options
Pixc’s editing options cost 1 credit per image. Each edited image equals 1 credit. These options create a uniform background, size, color, file type and add shadows/reflections.
1. Background color
This option allows you to choose the type of background you prefer. You can keep the original background, make it transparent, or pick a color, including white. If you choose a custom background color, there’s even a place to input its specific hex code into the template.
2. Border
This feature allows you to include a border on the sides of the image of any color or width. Certain websites, like Amazon, have detailed border requirements that this feature makes it easy to comply with.
3. File Size (Cropping)
Here you can select the dimensions of your image in pixels. You have five options to choose from: square, 2:3, 3:2, 4:3 and custom. In the custom option, you can input any specific dimensions for your final images. You can also click on ‘Add additional size’ to get two sets of images with different sizes.
4. File Type
This feature allows you to select the output type of your images. You can choose between JPEG and PNG.
5. Shadows and Reflections
If you are aiming for a more realistic look, our team can add Drop and Reflective shadows to your images.
Why Uniforming your Product Images is so Important
The Pixc Photo Resize Shopify app saves you time and money by automatically squaring your product images. Our free photo resize app processed over 3.3 million photos in just three months!
Having square product images is important to your eCommerce store for a number of reasons. It:
- Increases scannability on your collection pages
- Drastically improves your store’s responsiveness for mobile shoppers
- Ensures the zoom function will work consistently on your product images
- Helps you meet the square image requirement for avenues like Facebook carousel ads
Previously, making sure your images were square would require using a template or consistent style guideline. If your photos were a different size, then it required time spent in Photoshop or hiring a photo editor.
With Pixc’s Photo Resize app, your problem is solved. Thousands of people have already used the app to improve their store. Here’s why you should too:
- 1-Click Install – It takes just one click to resize all of your product photos
- Replace Website Photos Automatically – Unlike other services, there is no need to download, upload or email any files whatsoever. Photo Resize by Pixc replaces all of your product photos with correctly-resized ones.
- Try it For Free – Photo Resize by Pixc is FREE for the first 50 images, so you can give it a try without worrying that you won’t like it. You’ve got nothing to lose! And after that, it’s only $0.05 an image or choose from one of the paid plans with monthly subscription between $4 to $79.
- Restore Your Images Anytime – You can restore original product images individually or for your entire store anytime with the press of a button.
The photo resize app has become one of the most popular tools on the Shopify App store with nearly 700 five-star reviews!

Pixc is the ideal solution for new businesses. Our low-cost solution saves you time and money by eliminating the need for expensive software or extra staff.

Retail Stores
Having great product photos isn’t just beneficial for online sales, it lets consumers browse your products outside of opening hours and improves product discovery.
But getting professional photos for all of your products can be a time-consuming and expensive process. Pixc helps you get set up without any professional photography equipment required.

With lots of products coming and going, the quality of your images can often fall behind or require extra staff to manage.
Pixc has been designed to fit in with your wholesale or dropshipping workflow as seamlessly as possible. You can upload photos of your new images or send us photos provided by the supplier and have professional-quality photos returned within 24 hours.

Here’s some of the recent feedback from our customers:
“Fastest turnaround and easiest interface to use for cleaning up or enhancing your photos for use on Amazon. I’ve been selling on Amazon for over 5 years and have used about 15-20 of these type of sites and Pixc blows them out of the water by every facet. Their support actually responds to you and is helpful something that is beyond rare these days.” – Patrick Nies
“I love Pixc! They are incredibly fast and make managing my website so much easier. The support level is second to none. I would highly recommend using them for any and all imaging needs.” – Cammac
“My last photographer was horrible. It was going to be too costly to have the images fixed. I searched the app store and found this app. I am 200% satisfied with my images. I quickly choose this app because I am already using the resizer app and was confident with this developer. The change to the images is amazing. It took more than the advertised 24 hours. I just emailed the support and they were ready for me later that day. I mostly like the feature to just replace them back on to the site. Who wants to download and then and then upload again. Not me!” – Chrisie Styles
