Image templates
Design an ad image once. The app fills it with each product's own photo, title and price, and your feed sends the finished images to Google or Meta.
Steps
Create a template
Go to Templates and click Create template. Enter a Template name, pick a starting point (Blank canvas, Minimalistic side by side, Sale fashion or Sale dark), then click Create template.
Design the image
Click Real data in the toolbar to design on a real product. Click a layer to edit it. Add layers from Component: Text, Image, Shape or Discount badge.
Preview products
Pick another product in the toolbar. A Discount badge shows each product's own discount and hides on products that aren't on sale.
Save and apply
Click Save, then Apply to feed. Pick the Platform and the feed in Render these images for. Under Formats to render, pick the image style, choose Product or Variant, check Images to render, then click Confirm and render.
Check the feed
The feed opens and shows Rendering images. Then the Image column on Products shows your design. Click an image to see it full size.
Google Merchant Center bans overlays on the main image. For a Google feed, pick 1:1 · clean (no overlay). 1:1 · with overlay is for Meta ads.
Good to know
- Only Primary feeds can use a template.
- Rendering uses the last saved version. Save before you apply.
- The image quota resets on the 1st of each month. Click Raise limit on Templates to ask for more.
- You can also pick a template from the feed: Attributes tab, Image link row, Design template.
- If images fail, the feed shows Images weren't rendered. Click Apply template to try again.
FAQ
Does a template change my product photos in Shopify?
No. The images are used only in your feed. Your Shopify store stays the same.
Do syncs redraw my images?
No. Images change only when you apply or re-render. Syncing products never redraws them.
I hit the template limit. What now?
Delete a template you no longer use, or contact us to raise the limit.
Changelog
- September 2026: The Templates page shows your Image quota and the Raise limit banner before you create your first template.
