Schedule Pinterest video pins in advance
GoPinKaro schedules video pins as easily as images. Upload an MP4 or MOV (4 seconds to 15 minutes, up to 50 MB), pick a cover or let it use a frame from the video, set the title, board and time, and it is uploaded to Pinterest and published when due. Video is included on every plan, including Free.
Facts reviewed
How it works
- 1
Choose Video
On the New pin page switch the media tab to Video and add your file. The page checks the format, size, length and shape before anything uploads.
- 2
Pick a cover
A frame from the video is used by default, or choose your own image. The cover is what people see before the video plays.
- 3
Add the details
Write the title and description (the AI writer can draft options), add a destination link and alt text, then choose a board.
- 4
Choose the time
Pick an exact time, or let best-time slots choose on paid plans. Video pins schedule up to a year ahead.

GoPinKaro does the rest
When the pin is due, the video is uploaded to Pinterest, which processes it. The pin is created once processing finishes.
What your video needs
| Pinterest allows | GoPinKaro accepts | |
|---|---|---|
| File type | MP4, MOV or M4V | MP4, MOV or M4V |
| Length | 4 seconds to 15 minutes | 4 seconds to 15 minutes |
| Shape | Between 1:2 and 1.91:1 (width to height) | The same; 9:16, 2:3, 4:5 or square recommended |
| File size | Up to 2 GB | Up to 50 MB |
| Encoding | H.264 or H.265 | Checked by Pinterest during processing |
Pinterest limits are from its help pages. GoPinKaro's size limit is lower because videos are stored before upload; see our [video pin specs guide](/guides/pinterest-video-pin-specs).
What happens when Pinterest is slow
Pinterest processes every uploaded video before it can become a pin. If processing is not finished when GoPinKaro checks, the pin goes back in the queue and is tried again about every 90 seconds, without uploading the file a second time. If Pinterest rejects the video, the pin is marked failed with the reason, so you can fix the file and retry in one click.
Honest limits
- Files above 50 MB are not accepted yet, which is roughly a minute of 1080p video.
- Video pins are created from the New pin page. Bulk upload, CSV import and the assistant handle image pins.
- Pinterest decides how video is shown and promoted; scheduling does not change that.

Frequently asked questions
Can I schedule Pinterest video pins?
Yes. GoPinKaro uploads your MP4 or MOV to Pinterest at the scheduled time and publishes the pin once Pinterest has processed it.
What video formats and lengths work?
MP4, MOV or M4V, between 4 seconds and 15 minutes, with a width-to-height ratio between 1:2 and 1.91:1. Vertical 9:16, 2:3, 4:5 or square videos are recommended by Pinterest.
What is the maximum video size?
Pinterest allows up to 2 GB; GoPinKaro currently accepts files up to 50 MB.
Is video included in the free plan?
Yes. Video and carousel pins count toward the same monthly pin allowance as images (30 a month on Free).
What if Pinterest does not process my video?
The pin is retried while Pinterest is still processing. If Pinterest rejects the file, the pin shows the reason and can be retried after you fix the video.
