Compress JPG to 100 KB

Compress a JPG to 100 KB or less, online and free. Online forms, upload portals and email often limit photos to 100 KB. Upload your JPG, or a PNG, WebP or HEIC photo that you want as a JPG, and TypeorDrop keeps the highest JPEG quality that still fits under 100 KB. Most photos keep their full width and height at this size; very large ones are made a little smaller. You see the new size before you download.

How to use Compress JPG to 100 KB

  1. Choose your JPG: Drop a JPG onto the page or tap to browse. 100 KB and JPG output are already selected.

  3. Download: You see the old size, the new size and the dimensions. Download the JPG and upload it where you need it.

FAQ

Can every JPG be compressed to 100 KB?

Nearly every one. A normal photo fits at full size. A very large or detailed photo is also made smaller in pixels, down to 320 px on the long side, until it fits; you see the new dimensions on the result screen.

Does compressing a JPG again lose quality?

Yes, every JPEG save loses a little detail. Keep your original and compress from it rather than from an already compressed copy.

What is JPEG quality?

JPEG stores a photo with a quality setting from 1 to 100. Lower quality means a smaller file with softer details and, at the extreme, visible blocks. The tool picks the highest quality that fits 100 KB, and makes the photo slightly smaller rather than go below a reasonable quality.

Can I keep my PNG as a PNG?

Yes, choose PNG as the output. PNG is lossless, so photos rarely reach 100 KB, while screenshots and logos often do with fewer colours.

What if my JPG is already under 100 KB?

Then you get it back unchanged.

What is the maximum upload size?

Images up to 15 MB and 50 megapixels in JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, AVIF, GIF, BMP and TIFF format.

Is it free?

Yes. You can use up to 2 tools a day without an account, and 10 a day with a free account. Pro removes the daily limit (fair use) and ads for $4 per month or $38.40 per year.

Are my images safe?

Your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection and processed on our servers. Uploaded files are deleted automatically after about 24 hours, and results after 7 days. We don't share your files with anyone.
