https://www.picfair.com/plus

USD $6.99 / month
or $69.90 / year

Pay to sell.. almost nothing???
You are not a seller, you are a customer, paying for NO product...

Very few Sales, it's true, but you can put your own price, you get 50 percent and pay nothing.
Picfair plus Is only if you want to build your own shop, it's a platform.

I can't understand why so many of you doesn't support this agency helping them to grow: they have all the things contributors usually ask: pricing different, fair royalties, you can change price, or delete image at any time, you can decide the licenses...

Oh yes, It could be beautiful to have more sales, but Sales Will come if you support them as contributors

BTW, I stay with them from 2015, 3200 images and 180.000 views, 9 sales for 145 GBP, it means about 190 US$.
RPD 21US$ is not so bad...
Very little but always better than many other middle tier agencies

Been a couple of months with them, no luck so far. I'll keep praying to the Lord of Sales and remain hopeful.

You don't get 50% you get 100% of the price you set. They add their fee on top

i.e. you set your price to $10 they add $2.40 selling price to the customer $12.40

still the best part of this site is the no reviews.i know this can be a not good thing sometimes but when ss acting like crazy lately with rejections,and on adobe i got a rejection the other day of a silver watch in a red background and the reason was out of focus DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.then for me it still is a good alternative

Better to get one image accepted and one rejected in Adobe with one sale instead two accepted with no sales in Picfair. I like the site, but we are here to make a business.

DiscreetDuck · « **Reply #34 on:** November 30, 2019, 04:15 »

I Agree. And I'm not sure they are into charity for photographers. They sell a product, maybe more than pictures.

tdezenzio · « **Reply #35 on:** November 30, 2019, 07:34 »

Had my first sale in 3 years - 10.00 pounds

i agree with you but on the other hand, look at the ss thread what is going on and at the ss forums.many want to quit submit images cause of rejections and the moronic rejection reason.and also that sale you say its 24 p or 37 p compare to 20 pounds or dollars or 10 pounds now this guy said that he earned
and i said ITS ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE.i am not saying quit adobe and ss and post in picfair only

I'm not sure if it's an alternative this days anymore by my experience. My last sale there was 2 years ago. I had sales at 10 GBP prices and now have no sales on 3 GBP price. I always look for a new alternatives, but my standard on this is: The agency to report at least one sale per month per 1000 images on sale. My images will remain there as I don't see any problem with Picfair except the sales, maybe one day they will change the strategy and the things will change.

Lot of views of my 88 pics here... No sale. On other stock sites I manged to sell some pics before I reached 100 uploads... I'm struggling to understand what's the profile of Picfair buyers but I don't get it... Or is more like a place where you promote yourself...

1000 pics, 30000+ views, 0 sales
They make money only with selling their Plus edition as it seems.

Mimi the Cat · « **Reply #40 on:** February 13, 2020, 15:07 »

Had two sales one in October and one in November the good thing is they have no minimum payout so as soon as the sale is made you can request the funds.
