Featurepics offers “Buy Single Image as Guest” option

Fremont, California. — May 19, 2016 — The Stock photo industry has significantly shifted toward a purchasing
policy that relies on subscription-based image downloads or buying several images in a package.
The trend results in two significant drawbacks: customers are forced into purchasing a subscription that
is rarely used to download more than few images, and content authors are led to distribute
their content for little return to the few customers who choose to download excessive amounts of images.
Featurepics believes that this model only benefits stock photo sites with
the subscription-based model, and does not serve most content users nor content creators in the long term.
These drawbacks clearly illustrate the opportunity for individual image purchase providers and highlights the important role that developing deep and lasting customer relationships without using image subscription
as the base for customer retention.

As major business and technology changes, so does stock photo industry. In addition to extremely high
cost of subscription-based photos when only a few of the subscribed images are used,
many customers prefer to utilize the single photo purchasing option at lower overall cost
per image downloaded. When a customer purchases single image license with Featurepics, he/she does
not leave a track of payment and personal information on the site and does not incur
unnecessary costs associated with subscriptions found across other stock photo agencies.

In addition, Featurepics allows for an incredibly fast singe image purchasing option –
limited information is asked to process the payment. “Development of the “Buy as Guest” feature was
done for clients who want an easy and simple way to purchase a single image license without worrying
about having their identity, credit card info, etc. stored on a third-party server” said Elena Orel,
lead developer. “For clients who decided to create an account to use savings plans – we still don’t keep credit
cards and Paypal account information in our system. It is a guarantee of our “secure payment” – no records/no worries.”
Featurepics actively develops solutions such as the “Buy as Guest” option to provide lasting value
for both content users and content creators. Featurepics has developed a loyal following among image
contributors and is committed to helping users find digital content with ease, and most importantly,
clear and worry-free terms associated with a single image purchases (http://www.featurepics.com/HelpCenter/Buy-stock-images-individually.aspx).
