WeChat sticker maker: pass the 500KB review on the first try
The WeChat sticker platform rejects anything over 500KB at 240×240 — which is why most homemade GIFs bounce. This exporter renders your meme straight into spec: 240×240 animated GIF, transparent background, compressed in passes until it clears the limit, plus the 120×120 PNG thumbnail the submission form asks for.
Making a whole album? The pack mode takes one character and sixteen captions, renders every sticker, and hands you a zip named exactly how the WeChat sticker platform wants it.

How to publish on WeChat
- Make or upload your character. Generate one with AI, upload a photo, or start from a template. Transparent backgrounds review faster and look native in chat.
- Add the caption. Chinese, English or both — the text engine wraps CJK and Latin correctly and keeps strokes readable at 240px.
- Export in spec. One click renders the 240×240 GIF under 500KB plus the 120×120 thumbnail. Album mode zips all sixteen.
- Upload to the sticker platform. Submit at sticker.weixin.qq.com — the zip includes a checklist of the exact fields the form asks for.
Questions
Why does WeChat reject my GIF?
Almost always file size. The limit is 500KB at 240×240, and most editors export far above it. This tool compresses in passes — palette size, dimensions, frame rate — until the file is under the line.
How many stickers do I need for a WeChat album?
Sixteen or twenty-four. The pack mode renders a full sixteen-sticker album from one character and a caption list, zipped and named for upload.
Do WeChat stickers support transparency?
Yes, and albums with transparent backgrounds look noticeably better in chat. GIF supports 1-bit transparency, which this exporter uses.
Can I make stickers from my own photos?
Yes — upload a photo and optionally restyle it into a cartoon or Q-version with AI before adding captions.
