How to Sell Images With Picu

Selling images is directly integrated in the established proofing process that your clients are already familiar with.

1. When creating a new collection check the “Sell images…” option to activate e-commerce.

Screenshot of picu collection options: These include "Enable Comments & Markers", "Set Selection Goal", "Enable image download" and "Sell images", with the later being marked with a red box

2. Choose which pricing type you want to use. Currently there are two options:

  • Single image pricing
  • Package pricing

2 a. With “Single image pricing” each image is priced the same amount.

Screenshot of the "Sell images" option, where the "singple image pricing" type is selected. There is an empty "Price per image" field

2 b. With “Package pricing” you can set a base price and then add a number of images that are included in the package. You can also set a price for additional images.

Screenshot of the Pricing Type option. Package pricing is selected, with empty fields visible for Package/base price, Number of included images and Price per additional image

It is also possible to set either of those values to 0. If you want to restrict the number of images the client is allowed to order, use the Selection Option feature.

3. Finally you can choose which payment provider/gateway you want to use for this collection.

(You need to activate payment providers in the e-commerce settings first.)

If you do not select any payment providers, the client can still approve the collection and place their order, you just have to handle payment separately.

Currently picu supports direct payment via PayPal and Stripe (both need to be configured first).
