MegaOptim Cloud closes on November 15, 2026
MegaOptim now optimizes images
on your own server
The MegaOptim WordPress plugin no longer needs a cloud account. Version 3.0 compresses your images and creates WebP and AVIF copies on your server, with no API key and no image credits.
Free on WordPress.org

For MegaOptim Cloud customers
What changes on November 15, 2026?
The MegaOptim Cloud API stops accepting requests. Until then, MegaOptim 2.x and earlier keep optimizing through the cloud exactly as before. New accounts are no longer available.
What should I do with my WordPress site?
Update MegaOptim to 3.0 from Plugins → Updates. It keeps your settings and backups and from then on optimizes images on your server. MegaOptim 3.0 needs WordPress 5.8 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.
I use the API from my own code.
API integrations stop working on November 15, 2026. If you need help moving to another setup, contact us.
What about my subscription?
All MegaOptim Cloud subscriptions have been cancelled, and nobody will be charged again. Active customers received a free MegaOptim Pro Lifetime license by email.
