Pump.fun Image and Banner Sizes: A Practical Guide

Pump.fun image and banner sizes

Prepare your coin art before opening the create form. Pump.fun’s current create page specifies a square image with a minimum resolution of 1000 × 1000 pixels and a maximum file size of 15 MB. It recommends JPG, GIF, or PNG. A banner is optional. The page also warns that coin details, including the banner, can’t be changed after creation. Check Pump.fun’s create page before uploading in case its requirements have changed.

Quick specifications

Coin image: At least 1000 × 1000 pixels; square (1:1); maximum 15 MB. JPG, GIF, or PNG are recommended.
Banner: Optional. Pump.fun’s create page doesn’t display a banner dimension or file-size limit in its published instructions. A Pump.fun Web Help Center article gives 1500 × 500 pixels (3:1) as the recommended banner size and says the maximum is 5 MB. Treat those as help-center guidance and confirm what the live upload form accepts.

For the banner, make a 1500 × 500-pixel image as a practical starting point, then check it in the form’s preview. Avoid putting important text or artwork right at the edges: page layouts can crop or scale images differently across screens.

Design an image that works small

The coin image is the square artwork used to identify your coin. Keep the main subject large, use clear contrast, and avoid tiny lettering, thin lines, or crowded details. A design that looks sharp at full size can become hard to recognize when displayed as a small thumbnail.

Keep the important part of the art near the center, with some breathing room around it. If your image has text, use only a few large, legible words. Before uploading, shrink the image on your phone or in an image editor to see whether the main subject still reads clearly.

Make a useful banner

The banner is a wide image shown on the coin page in addition to the coin image, according to the Help Center article. Use it for a simple visual setting or a short piece of supporting artwork rather than repeating a tiny logo across the whole canvas. Keep key content away from the outer edges and check the preview before creating the coin.

Use original artwork. Don’t use another project’s name, logo, characters, or art, or imagery of real people unless it’s you. Memecoins are speculative; clear art and a polished page don’t change that.

Upload steps

Prepare the files. Export the main image as a square at 1000 × 1000 pixels or larger, within the stated 15 MB limit. If you want a banner, prepare a 3:1 version at 1500 × 500 pixels and keep it within the 5 MB limit cited by the Help Center article.
Open Pump.fun’s create page. Connect your wallet if prompted, then enter the coin’s name, ticker, and any other details you plan to include.
Upload the coin image. Use the image or video upload area to select your square artwork. Check that the file is the right version and that the preview looks clear.
Add the banner if wanted. Open the optional banner control and select your wide artwork. Review the preview for cropping, legibility, and positioning.
Review before submitting. Check the name, ticker, description, links, image, and banner. Pump.fun’s create page says coin details such as social links and banner can only be added at creation and can’t be edited afterward. Don’t proceed until everything is correct.
Follow the page prompts to create the coin. Review the transaction details in your wallet and only approve if they match what you intend to do.

Final checklist

The coin image is square, at least 1000 × 1000 pixels, and no larger than 15 MB.
The banner is optional; 1500 × 500 pixels is the Help Center’s recommendation, and its stated maximum is 5 MB.
The main subject and any text remain readable in the preview.
You’ve checked all coin details because some can’t be edited after creation.
The artwork is original and doesn’t make unsupported claims about utility, partnerships, audits, or listings.
