TGS (Telegram Sticker) is a gzip-compressed Lottie animation format used exclusively for Telegram animated stickers. Each TGS file contains a Lottie JSON animation wrapped in gzip compression, following Telegram's strict sticker guidelines (512x512 max, 3 seconds max, 64KB max).

TGS files are designed for use within Telegram and are not natively supported outside the platform. Converting to GIF, WebP, or APNG makes your Telegram stickers shareable across any messaging app, social media, or website.
WebP is Google's modern image format offering both lossy and lossless compression modes, plus alpha transparency and animation support—essentially combining the best features of JPEG, PNG, and GIF. Announced in 2010, WebP typically delivers 25-35% smaller files than JPEG at comparable quality using VP8 or VP8L compression. All major browsers now support WebP, making it a practical choice for web optimization.
Authoritative reference: WebP Documentation (Google)
WebP strikes an excellent balance between compression efficiency and ecosystem maturity. It's widely adopted for web delivery, supported across all modern browsers (Chrome 32+, Firefox 65+, Safari 14+, Edge 18+), and offers better compression than JPEG/PNG without the encoding overhead of AVIF.
CMS support: WordPress 5.8+ (July 2021) supports WebP natively. Most modern CMS platforms and CDNs (Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly) can automatically serve WebP to compatible browsers via content negotiation.
Email limitation: Most email clients (Outlook, Gmail web, Apple Mail) do not support WebP. Always use JPG or PNG for email images, or provide a JPG fallback via <picture> elements in HTML emails.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why convert TGS to WebP?
WebP is the best format for sharing Telegram stickers outside Telegram when you want to preserve animation quality. Animated WebP supports full 24-bit color and alpha transparency with much smaller file sizes than GIF.
WebP is supported by all modern browsers and many messaging platforms including WhatsApp and Discord.
WebP vs GIF for stickers?
WebP produces significantly smaller files with better quality. Telegram stickers use gradients and transparency extensively—GIF's 256-color limit causes visible banding, while WebP preserves the full color range.
For the absolute widest compatibility (email clients, older systems), GIF is still the safest choice. Try our TGS to GIF converter if you need maximum compatibility.
Will the animation loop correctly?
Yes, the output WebP will loop continuously just like the original Telegram sticker. The animation timing, frame rate, and loop behavior are all preserved during conversion.
What if I just need a still image from a TGS sticker?
Use our TGS to PNG converter instead. It extracts the first frame of the animation as a high-quality static PNG with full transparency support.
PNG is ideal when you need a single frame for thumbnails, previews, or anywhere animated images aren't supported.
What are the limits for this converter?
| Tier | Max File Size | Max Files/Batch | Parallel Processing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guest/Free | 50 MB | 50 files | 3 at once |
| Pro | 1024 MB | 1000 files | 6 at once |

How are credits calculated for this conversion?
Cost: 1 credit per 50 frames
How it works:
- 1-50 frames: 1 credit
- 51-100 frames: 2 credits
- 101-150 frames: 3 credits
- 151-200 frames: 4 credits
Example: A 30-frame sticker = 1 credit. A 300-frame sticker = 6 credits.
Why per-frame? Each frame requires individual rendering and encoding. Longer animations with more frames need proportionally more processing.
What are my daily and monthly credit limits?
Credit allocations vary by account tier:
| Tier | Daily Limit | Monthly Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Guest | 100 credits/day | — |
| Free | 100 credits/day | — |
| Pro | — | 12,000 credits/month |
Daily credits (Guest & Free tiers) reset every day at midnight UTC. Monthly credits (Pro) reset on your billing cycle date.
Note: With 1 credit per 50 frames, short stickers under 50 frames cost 1 credit each. Pro users can convert thousands of stickers per month.
