How to make a product reel
- Bring in the product. Paste a Shopify product link (it has
/products/in it) and tap Load product. The photos, name, price and any “compare at” price come in by themselves. For any other shop, open Use your own photos, choose up to 20 photos and type the name, shop name and price. - Pick a layout and a colour. The preview plays the reel as it will look; every layout works with every colour.
- Pick a length. Auto gives each photo about two seconds. A fixed length (10, 15, 20 or 30 seconds) slows or speeds the photos to fit.
- Pick a track — tap ▶ to listen first — or choose No music.
- Make it yours (optional). Under Words & details, change any words, hide what you don't need and set the end card; under Colour, pick My colours.
- Tap Generate Reel, then Download the video and Copy caption for the post.
The six layouts
| Layout | What it looks like | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Classic | Shop name at the top, the photo in a rounded card, name and price below | Almost anything; a safe first choice |
| Full Bleed | The photo fills the whole screen, text sits on a soft shade at the bottom | Model shots, lifestyle photos, clothing |
| Split | Photo on the top half, a solid panel with the details underneath | Long product names, clear prices |
| Postcard | A framed, centred picture with a double border | Gifts, handmade and festive items |
| Banner | Full-screen photo with a floating card holding the details | Bold photos with a plain background |
| Minimal | Plenty of empty space, small centred type | Jewellery, beauty, premium products |
Every reel ends with a three-second closing card: the shop name, “Shop the link in bio” and the price. A sale price is shown next to the struck-out original, with a “Save” amount, whenever the original is higher.
What it takes from a Shopify product
| In the reel | Comes from |
|---|---|
| Photos | The product's media, in the same order, up to 20 |
| Product name | The product title, cut at the first “|” or “·” so keyword-stuffed titles stay short |
| Price | The first variant's price, or the variant in the link (?variant=) |
| Struck-out price, “Save” and “% OFF” | The compare-at price, when it is higher than the price |
| Shop name | Your store's name, as set in Shopify |
| Category label | The product type, title and tags: Jewellery, Apparel, Footwear, Bags, Home Decor or Beauty, otherwise “New In” |
| Currency | Your store's main currency |
So the reel is only as good as the product listing: set a compare-at price to show a sale, and put your best photo first in the product's media. Anything that comes in wrong can be changed under Edit the words before you make the video.
Making it yours
- Edit the words. Shop name, product name, price, old price (MRP) and the category label can all be changed; clear the price to leave it off. The button line has ready-made choices — “DM to order”, “Order on WhatsApp”, “Shop now” — or type your own, and the website or contact line can hold a WhatsApp number or an Instagram handle instead of the shop's address.
- Show or hide. Switch off any part: shop name, category, price, old price, the “Save” amount, the % OFF badge, the photo dots, the button line, the website line, or the whole end card. Most layouts close up the space.
- My colours. Choose a background (or two, for a gradient), a text colour and a highlight colour for the price and labels. Three palettes are suggested from your first photo — Soft, Deep and Bold — so the reel matches the product. If a choice is hard to read, a note appears with a Fix it button that adjusts it just enough.
- End card. It takes the reel's colours, or the original maroon and gold, and its two big lines can say anything — “Order today on / WhatsApp”, “New stock / every Friday”.
Your layout, colours, button line, contact line, end card and show/hide choices are remembered in this browser, so the next product's reel starts the same way; Reset puts everything back. Use the pause button and slider under the preview to look at any moment, and a small copy of the preview stays in the corner while you edit further down the page.
Which links work
The page reads the product straight from the shop, from your own browser, with no server and no Shopify app in between. Every live Shopify store allows this, so any product link works: on your own domain or on .myshopify.com, opened through a collection (/collections/…/products/…), or with a variant chosen. Paste the address of the product as a shopper sees it — a link to your Shopify admin (admin.shopify.com) will not work. Shopify stores still behind a password page cannot be read, and neither can Amazon, Meesho, Flipkart, Etsy, WooCommerce and most home-made shops. For those, save the product photos and use the own-photos option; the reel comes out the same. More on Shopify product videos — putting the video on the product page and where to post it — is in the Shopify product video guide.
Getting good photos into the reel
- Put the best photo first; it is the cover and the first thing people see.
- Three to six photos make an easy-to-follow reel. Twenty is the most it will take.
- Square and upright (portrait) photos fill the frame best. Wide photos are shown whole in Classic and Postcard, and cropped in Full Bleed, Split and Banner.
- Photos you add are opened on your device and never uploaded.
Posting it
The video is 1080 × 1920 pixels, the 9:16 size used by Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, YouTube Shorts and WhatsApp Status. Chrome, Edge and recent Safari save an MP4; older browsers save a WebM file, which Instagram also accepts. The caption has the product name, shop and price, the product link, a “link in bio” line and a few hashtags — edit it before posting. Credit the music's artist (shown next to each track) in the caption, or add a trending sound inside the Instagram app instead. To shrink very large photos before adding them, use the Image Compressor; for a code customers can scan to open your shop, use the QR Code Generator.
A free Shopify reel maker and product video maker: paste a Shopify product link and the product’s photos, title, price and sale price are turned into a vertical 1080×1920 video for Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts or WhatsApp Status — and for your Shopify product page. Choose one of 6 layouts and 11 colours, a length and a copyright-free track, and download an MP4 with a ready-made caption. No Shopify app to install, nothing uploaded. Selling somewhere else? Add your own photos instead. More for Shopify sellers: Shopify product video maker guide.
How do I turn a Shopify product into an Instagram Reel?
Copy the product page link from your store (it has /products/ in it), paste it here and tap Load product. The photos, title, price and compare-at price come in by themselves. Pick a layout, colour, length and music track, tap Generate Reel, then download the MP4 and copy the caption.
Do I need to install a Shopify app or give access to my store?
No. Nothing is installed in your store and no login, API key or admin access is asked for. The page reads only the public product information any shopper can already see, straight from your browser.
Which Shopify links work?
Any product page of a live Shopify store: on your own domain or on .myshopify.com, opened through a collection (/collections/…/products/…), or a variant link with ?variant=, which uses that variant’s price. Shopify admin links and stores still behind a password page cannot be read — use your own photos for those.
Can I put the video on my Shopify product page?
Yes. It is an ordinary MP4 file: open the product in your Shopify admin and add the file in the Media section. How the video plays in the gallery depends on your theme.
Does it work for shops that are not on Shopify?
Yes. Open “No Shopify link? Use your own photos”, add up to 20 photos, type the name, shop name and price, and the reel is made the same way.
Can I change the words and colours on the reel?
Yes. Under Words & details you can change the shop name, product name, price, old price and category, the button line (for example Order on WhatsApp) and a website or contact line, edit the end card’s big words, and hide any part you don’t want. Pick My colours to set your own background, text and highlight colours, or tap a palette taken from your product photo. Your choices are remembered on your device.
Can I post it on TikTok, YouTube Shorts or Facebook?
Yes. The video is 1080×1920 (vertical 9:16), the size used by Instagram Reels and Stories, Facebook Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and WhatsApp Status.
Is the music free to use?
The tracks are offered by their makers as free to use; credit the artist shown next to each one. Or pick “No music” and add a trending sound inside Instagram or TikTok.
Is it free?
Yes — no sign-up, no watermark and no limit, and the video is made on your own device.
