YouTube Membership Emoji Requirements

YouTube recommends uploading membership emoji at 48x48 pixels for optimal quality across all devices. While you can upload images up to 480x480 pixels, 48x48 is the recommended size as emoji display at 24x24 on mobile devices and up to 48x48 on high-DPI desktop screens. All membership emoji must be under 1MB in file size. Our YouTube emoji resizer automatically converts your images to the perfect 48x48 size with optimal compression.

Loyalty badges (the icons next to a member's name) use different sizes — minimum 32x32, shown at 14x14 in comments and 16x16 in chat. We made a dedicated tool for those.

Animation Not Supported on YouTube

Unlike Twitch and Discord, YouTube does not support animated emoji for channel memberships. If you upload a GIF file, only the first frame will be displayed as a static image. For animated effects in your streams, consider using YouTube's built-in Super Chat animations, Super Stickers, or streaming software overlays instead. Our YouTube emoji resizer accepts GIFs but will output static images.

How to Upload Custom Emoji to YouTube

After resizing your emoji with our YouTube emoji resizer, go to YouTube Studio. Navigate to Monetization > Memberships > Perks, then scroll down to the Custom emoji section. Click 'Add emoji' to upload your resized 48x48 image and give it a unique name (this becomes the shortcode members type). Your emoji will be available immediately after saving. You can reorder emoji and assign them to specific membership tiers.

Resize YouTube Emoji Without Photoshop

You don't need expensive software like Photoshop to create professional YouTube membership emoji. Our free YouTube emoji resizer handles everything directly in your browser with zero downloads required. Simply drag and drop your image, preview the result at the correct size, and download the perfectly optimized emoji instantly.
