Image upload limit

You can add up to 12 images per item. Across your account, you can upload a total of 25,000 images or 100 GB of image data to your account. Once you've reached 75% of either of these two limits, you will be notified in the image upload section of your item.

NOTE: To upgrade your image upload limit, contact our Support team to add the necessary module. This can expand the number of images or total GB of image data that you can upload to your account, however you will still be limited to 12 images per item.
