Recommended File Types and Sizes

Images

Format Use Case File Size
PSD & AI Layered Photoshop or Illustrator files are ideal for managed services. Include any and all image assets and placeholders for video (if applicable) in your designs, to ensure we receive high resolution, pre-approved layouts built to your ad specs.

A high-resolution file built to your ad unit specs or standard banner specs, with a maximum file size of 50MB is recommended. Whenever possible, please use smart objects in your layered files.

PNG Best used for product shots, design elements, CTA buttons, logos, and transparent backgrounds. A high resolution file, up to 10MB. *See note below
JPG Best for full-color backgrounds, flattened images and custom typography. A high resolution file, up to 10MB. *See note below
SVG Best for logos, text, iconography and CTA buttons. A high resolution file, up to 10MB. *See note below
GIF Animated assets best for quick, short, or looping sequences.

Use the smallest image size without sacrificing quality, maximum 3MB. *See note below

 

Video

Format File Size / Duration
.MP4, .MOV, .OGG, .FLV, .AVI, .OGV and .WEBM 10MB with a duration of 15-30 seconds max. We can accept any ratio for video, but 16:9 is recommended. *See note below
YouTube, Vimeo or VAST

3MB with a duration of 15-30 seconds max. We can accept any ratio for video, but 16:9 is recommended. *See note below

 

* Note - All source files must comply with Chrome’s Heavy Ad Intervention policies to prevent ad units from being removed by the browser.

We will natively compress large image and video assets to help ensure your ad units stay loaded and the total output size remains under 4MB; however, all submitted video files must be 30 seconds or less. If a longer video is provided, we will need to either trim the file or limit autoplay functionality.

We are unable to control or reduce the file size of externally hosted video served through YouTube, Vimeo, or VAST tags. If you are providing an externally hosted video, please ensure the hosted file is compressed to 3MB or less, with a maximum duration of 30 seconds.

Please see our article Chrome's Heavy Ad Intervention for more information.
