Listings with a video stand out in a grid of still photos. LzyPOD turns the photos you already have into a short video with new scenes of your product, with captions that carry the message even with the sound off.
Tap to play with sound. Nothing here was filmed: the seller added product photos and picked a format.
From Etsy's seller guidelines. Check them again before a big upload, Etsy changes them now and then.

|---|---|

How to use a LzyPOD ad on Etsy. LzyPOD ads run 15 to 20 seconds with a voiceover, built for social and paid ads. On Etsy the sound is removed, so the word-by-word captions do the talking, and Etsy keeps the first 15 seconds. Put the strongest scenes first when you plan the ad, or use the free video editor to trim it to 15 seconds before you upload.
Square or portrait works best on Etsy. Etsy crops to fit its carousel, so pick 1:1 or 4:5 for listings and keep 9:16 for TikTok and Reels.
Does a video help sales? Etsy says it saw an increase in conversion rate when it made listing videos play on hover, and it encourages a video on every listing. A video shows scale and texture that a photo can't. What it won't fix is a weak product photo or a vague title, so treat video as the finishing step. More in our guide to Etsy product mockups.
One to a few photos of the thing you sell, plus a line about who it's for if you like. Your photos are only a reference.
Square, portrait or vertical, stills or motion, and the script angle. LzyPOD reads the product before you spend a credit.
New scenes, voiceover, word-by-word captions, music and your end card, edited into one ad you can post.
One credit pool for everything in LzyPOD. A free account's 15 credits cover designs and mockups; a video ad starts at 25.
| Still scenes with camera moves | 25 credits per ad |
|---|---|
| Mix of stills and motion | 45 credits per ad (the usual choice) |
| Full motion | 60 credits per ad |
| Change a finished ad | 5 credits for a new script, voice, music or end card. 8 credits per re-shot scene. Older versions stay, and going back is free |
| Plans | From $19 a month for 100 credits. Credits roll over and never expire. See pricing |
5 to 15 seconds. Longer videos are trimmed to 15 seconds when you upload them.
No. Etsy removes the audio, which is why LzyPOD ads carry word-by-word captions.
At least 1080 px on the short side, under 100 MB, MP4 or MOV. Square or portrait fits the listing carousel best.
No. Your photos are a reference so the product looks right. Every scene in the ad is newly made: people using it, close-ups and styled shots.
Square (1:1), portrait (4:5) and vertical (9:16), as a standard MP4.
Yes. Rewrite the script, pick another voice, get new music or restyle the end card for 5 credits, or redo any scene for 8. Only the part you changed is remade, and every earlier version is kept.
