How to make your animated stickers

  1. 1. Upload your photo

    Sign in and verify your email, then upload a clear, front-facing photo. The AI creates your cartoon character; likeness varies with the photo and generated result.

  2. 2. Pick reactions and add captions

    Choose hello, love, laugh and other animated reactions. Add an optional caption of up to 20 characters. Each reaction is a separate task.

  3. 3. Download and import

    Preview your result and download animated WebP or GIF. Use an importer that supports animated WebP and your WhatsApp version to package and import the WebP files.

Downloads and import requirements

Animated WebP: 512×512. GIF: 240×240. Both formats are included in the 10-credit cost of each completed WhatsApp reaction.

StickersMaker provides downloads, not one-click WhatsApp import. Animated WebP needs a compatible animated-sticker import workflow; compatibility depends on the tool, operating system and app version. GIF can be shared as an animation and is not the same as a WhatsApp sticker.

GIF uses on-or-off transparency. An edge cannot keep the same partial transparency as WebP. The WeChat download is a 240×240 GIF. Animated WebP supports partial alpha transparency. WhatsApp creations include a 512×512 animated WebP, plus a 240×240 GIF for animation sharing.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add animated stickers to WhatsApp?

Download the animated WebP files, then use an importer that supports animated WebP and works with your WhatsApp version to create or add to a sticker pack. StickersMaker does not provide one-click import. Compatibility depends on your tool, operating system and app version.

What format are the stickers?

WhatsApp creations include 512×512 animated WebP and 240×240 GIF downloads. Use animated WebP for a compatible sticker-pack import workflow; share GIF as an animation.

How much does it cost?

Each sticker costs 10 credits. Email verification unlocks a one-time 20-credit gift, enough for 2 stickers. Top up anytime: $5 for 50 credits, $15 for 180, or $30 for 400. Credits do not expire and there is no subscription.

Can I turn one photo into several animated WhatsApp stickers?

Yes. Your first sticker task creates and saves a cartoon character. Select it again for new reactions on any of the four platforms without uploading the photo each time. Each new sticker uses 10 credits; likeness, clothing and movement can vary.

What if a generation fails?

A confirmed failed generation returns its 10 credits automatically. A task whose provider result is still being checked has not yet been confirmed failed.

Are my photos public?

No. Your photos, characters and stickers are private to your account. Internal processing files are retained for 7 days after a task ends; saved characters and finished stickers stay until you delete them.

Why does a transparent sticker look like it has a background?

Check the original file in a viewer supporting its animation and transparency, on light and dark backgrounds. Screenshots, viewer canvases and conversion may change the result; GIF and WebP transparency differ.
