How to change a photo background to white
- Drop the photo in. A person, a product, a pet, a logo.
- Check the cut. The subject is cut out on its own. Pick the white swatch to see it on white, or a color if the form asks for one.
- Download the JPG. A JPG always comes with a solid background, white unless you chose another color.
Where a white background is required

- Most countries ask for a plain white or off-white background. Crop to the stated size with the Crop image tool and bring the file under the KB limit with Compress image.
- Marketplaces
- Amazon, Etsy and eBay want the main product photo on pure white. Drop the shot, download the JPG, upload.
- Profiles and CVs
- A headshot on white reads cleanly at any size and on any platform.
