You can always buy your own prints on any of our plans, and you'll receive products at the base product price from our lab partners as long as you're logged in. There are several ways to purchase your own prints.
Purchasing with Visitor Shopping enabled in the gallery settings:
Collage and Thumbnail gallery styles:
- In these styles, both you and your guests will see a shopping bag icon upper right on your photos.
- Use the shopping bag icon to either multi-select or single select your photos.
- Or use the Buy Photos button to open the shop page and the ability to select and deselect images and products to purchase.
- After selecting, proceed to Add to Cart and complete your purchase.
SmugMug and Journal gallery styles:
- Use the Buy Photos button in the gallery upper right to open the shop page and the ability to multi-select your photos.
- Choose your product options, and proceed to checkout by selecting the Add to Cart button.
Lightbox View (all gallery styles)
- Click on any photo to open it individually in the Lightbox view.
- Once in the Lightbox, select the Buy Photo button to choose your products and make a purchase.
Purchasing with Visitor Shopping disabled in the gallery settings:
If you've disabled visitor shopping in your gallery settings, you can still purchase your own prints, but the process will be slightly different:
- The shopping bag icon will not appear on your photos in the Collage and Thumbnail styles gallery view.
- Click on an image to open in the Lightbox view and you can select the Buy Photo button to access product options and complete your purchase.
- In the Journal and SmugMug gallery styles you can use the Buy Photos button in the gallery upper right to open the shop page to multi-select your photos, choose your products and complete your purchase.
You can change visitor shopping options per gallery in the Selling tab of your Gallery Settings.
Toggle the Visitor Shopping Cart option to ON to allow visitors to buy prints and gifts, and set it to OFF to prevent visitors from buying.
Note: Profits are only earned on visitor purchases on the Portfolio and Pro plans when a custom pricelist has been created.
