What is a file upload on Shopify?

A file upload field lets customers send you what they want printed, engraved, or made — right on the product page, before they pay. File uploads help merchants:

Sell personalized and made-to-order products
Collect artwork, logos, and photos without email back-and-forth
Cut mistakes and reprints with clear file requirements
Keep customer files secure, scanned, and compliant

K1 Photo File Upload makes it work on any Shopify theme — no coding required.

Why choose K1 as your Shopify File Upload app

We go all-in on the things other upload apps treat as optional

Enterprise-grade protection for every file

Most apps: files sit on ordinary hosting and download straight to your desk, unchecked.

K1 Photo File Upload: every upload is virus-scanned before download unlocks, and stored encrypted on certified infrastructure.

  • SOC 2 + ISO 27001 certified
  • AES-256 encrypted & antivirus-scanned
  • Hourly offsite backups

Get the file you actually need

Most apps: buyers upload anything, and you find out it's unusable after the order is paid.

K1 Photo File Upload: requirements are enforced before the upload even starts, and shown right in the widget.

  • Min / max file size & count
  • Image dimension limits
  • Rules shown on the storefront
1 GB
Max file size, resumable
JPG PNG PSD PDF Excel ZIP Video Custom rules

Uploads that survive anything

Most apps: a few megabytes per file, and a dropped connection means starting over.

K1 Photo File Upload: resumable uploads up to 1 GB that pick up exactly where they left off.

  • Survives dropped connections
  • Any file type
  • No compression, print-ready

Speak your buyer's language

Most apps: English-only labels that break the checkout experience for international buyers.

K1 Photo File Upload: every label, error and consent message is localized automatically — and fully editable.

  • All major storefront languages
  • Every label and error editable

Real human. Real fast. Shipped in 48 hours

Most apps: ticket queues, bots, and feature requests that land "sometime next quarter."

K1 Photo File Upload: founder-led support — you talk directly to the people who built the app, and requests actually ship.

  • 48-hour feature delivery
  • Theme fixes within 24 hours
  • Same-day issue resolution
