OptinMonster compresses new uploads automatically with Kraken.io. That has been true since June 2020. Official page: How to Optimize Your Campaign Images. Images uploaded before that date were not backfilled.

You still pick dimensions. Templates are usually 550–750px wide on desktop and 300–400px on mobile. Height follows the content. For retina, double the displayed size (a 600px-wide campaign wants a 1200px-wide image). Keep the file under 2MB.

Supported formats: JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, WebP, SVG.

1. In Design, select the image (or drop an Image block).

2. Open the image picker. Your Images is the account library. Unsplash is the built-in stock search.

3. Select from Computer to upload. Compression runs on the way in.

4. Save.

Exit-Intent and MonsterLinks preload images. That can still cost performance even after compression. OptinMonster documents an Api.js switch to disable preload. It also disables webfont preload. There is no separate toggle.
