What is the required Discord sticker size — and what format should I upload?

[hospitalitypartners]

I'm designing custom stickers for my Discord server and I'm not sure about the exact Discord sticker size requirements. I've seen different numbers mentioned online — is it 320x320 pixels? Does Discord accept both PNG and APNG for animated stickers, and is there a maximum file size limit I need to stay under when uploading?

The required Discord sticker size is indeed 320x320 pixels, so you should design your custom stickers with that dimension in mind. As for the format, Discord accepts both PNG and APNG for static and animated stickers respectively, so you can use either depending on your needs. For file size, you should keep it under 500 KB for static stickers and under 60 frames per second for animated ones, with a maximum file size of 300 KB for APNG stickers, so make sure to optimize your designs to stay within these limits for smooth uploading and display on the platform.

For Discord stickers, the recommended size is 320 × 320 pixels. Stickers should be uploaded in PNG or APNG format with a transparent background. The file size should typically be under 500 KB to meet Discord’s upload requirements.

For Discord stickers, upload a PNG or APNG file with a transparent background, sized 320 × 320 pixels. Static stickers use PNG; animated stickers use APNG. The file size must be under 500 KB for standard Discord sticker uploads.

Discord stickers should be 320 × 320 pixels. Upload static stickers in PNG or APNG format with a transparent background. Animated stickers use Lottie JSON files. Keep file sizes under 500 KB for best compatibility and smooth performance across Discord servers and devices.

Discord stickers should generally be 320 × 320 pixels for the best quality. Discord supports PNG and APNG formats for static or animated stickers, while Lottie JSON files may also work for vector animations in some cases. File sizes must stay under Discord’s upload limits, usually around 500 KB. Transparent backgrounds are recommended because they look cleaner in chats and servers. Keeping artwork simple and readable helps stickers display properly on both desktop and mobile devices.
