Rakuten is one of the largest eCommerce platforms in the world, and they understand the value of consistency when it comes to product images. We have combed through their rules and regulations and created a specification that ensures your product images will meet them. The new spec has been added into our “Marketplaces” collection, where it joins Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping.
