HOW TO SELL PHOTOS

It's easy to sell gallery-quality prints that can be shipped anywhere worldwide through The Open. The Open has partnered with Fotomoto to help participating photographers generate additional revenue.

In minutes, you can open an account and update your profile with your Fotomoto Store ID. A Buy Photo button will appear on your Artist's page. When a customer makes a purchase, you will receive an email requesting an upload of the hi-res original to FotoMoto's secure server. It then gets printed, packaged and shipped. If your customers have any questions, they are looked after on your behalf.

After printing costs and a nominal 20% fee (15% for Fotomoto, 5% administrative fee for The Open), the rest is yours. Not bad for a few clicks.
