Video on a PrestaShopproduct page.
PrestaShop handles product images out of the box. For video, use an embed, a paid module, or a tool that makes the clip for you.
Updated 10 November 2026
Core features and module features.
The product chapter of PrestaShop’s user guide, for versions 8 and 9, covers images and does not describe a video field. For a PrestaShop product video, you either embed a player in the description or install a module from the official marketplace, which sells them.
Images: core
Uploaded in the Basic settings tab. The first one becomes the cover shown on the product page, and you drag thumbnails to reorder.
Description: core
A rich text field shown on the product page, with no length limit. It can hold an embedded player once iframes are allowed.
Video gallery or tab: module
Paid modules on PrestaShop Addons place the player in the gallery, in a product tab or in the description, depending on the module.
Three ways to get video on the page.
| Route | What you need | Where it shows | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Embed in the description | A hosted video and the iframe option on | Inside the description text | PrestaShop advises keeping iframes off unless needed |
| Video module | A paid module from PrestaShop Addons, about €70 to €126 | Gallery, product tab or description, by module | Compatibility with your PrestaShop version |
| Sizzle module | The Sizzle module and a product photo | Next to the product images | Clips are 5 or 10 seconds |
Embed a hosted video in the description.
Allow iframes
In the back office, go to Shop Parameters, General, switch on Allow iframes on HTML fields and save.
Copy the embed code
On the site that hosts your video, copy its iframe embed snippet.
Open the product
Go to Catalog, Products, open the product and find the Description field.
Paste and check
Add the snippet to the description as HTML, save the product and open its page to see the player.
PrestaShop’s own guide recommends leaving the iframe option disabled unless necessary, and keeping HTMLPurifier on, since it guards text fields against malicious code. Turn on only what you need.
Video modules on PrestaShop Addons.
On 10 November 2026, a search for “product video” on addons.prestashop.com, the official marketplace, showed paid modules from about €70 to €126. That is a one-off price, with a year of support and updates included.
Three examples from that search, at their regular list price. Module names belong to their developers, and we are not affiliated with any of them.
| Module | Price, one-off |
|---|---|
| Product Videos: YouTube, Vimeo, MP4, HTML5 & iFrame (Smart Modules) | €125.99 |
| Product Videos Ultimate for YouTube, Vimeo, and more | €83.99 |
| Product Videos - Youtube / Vimeo (HiPresta) | €69.99 |
Before you buy a video module.
- The PrestaShop versions it supports. The Addons search filters by version, from 1.7 to 9.2.
- Which sources it plays: YouTube, Vimeo, uploaded MP4 files or others.
- Where on the product page it puts the player, and whether that suits your theme.
- How you install it: through your Addons connection, or with Upload a module on the Modules page if you have the file.
Or make the video in your back office.
If the missing piece is the video itself, Sizzle makes it. The module adds a Sizzle tab to every product: choose a catalogue photo and a look, and the clip appears next to the product images. No YouTube or Google Cloud account is involved.
Fast costs 15 credits. Studio, landscape with native sound, costs 35. You pay by card, credits stay with your shop, and 50 free credits arrive every month.
PrestaShop video, plainly answered.
