Compress JPG to 150KB Online — Free & Instant
Need to reduce a photo or JPG file to under 150KB? This free browser-based tool compresses your image to fit a 150KB limit in seconds — no software to install, no account, and nothing ever leaves your device.
Where Is a 150KB Limit Common?
150KB is a popular middle-ground size limit used by CV/resume upload portals, job application websites, LinkedIn-style profile photo uploads, and several university or scholarship application systems that allow slightly larger photos than the stricter 90–100KB forms. It's large enough to keep decent photo quality while still being light enough for slower connections and quick page loads.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose JPG, PNG, or WebP output?
Yes, use the format buttons above the compress button. Note that PNG is lossless, so hitting an exact target size with PNG sometimes requires reducing the image dimensions instead of quality.
Is there a limit on how many images I can compress?
No, use the tool as many times as you like — it's completely free.
Will the image dimensions change?
Only if quality reduction alone isn't enough to reach 150KB. In that case, the tool slightly reduces dimensions and lets you know.
