AOVANCY so far
Totals across all AOVANCY storefronts, checked on 3 October 2026.
What sells
A cohesive set of 10 to 30 shots for bloggers, brands and small shops who need a look, not one picture.
Menus, food blogs and cookbooks always need more. Shoot a theme, not random plates.
Apparel, devices, packaging. Designers use these every week.
Wedding vendors, gyms, clinics, estate agents. The narrower the pack, the easier it is to find its buyer.
City and landscape sets for travel writers and tour operators.
A photo pack plus matching Canva layouts, sold together. Worth more than either one alone.
Delivery
Each product takes one file up to 50 MB, so a pack is web-ready JPGs in a ZIP with a licence PDF. RAW and TIFF files go in a ZIP too, and full-size ones add up fast, so sell those in smaller sets.
After checkout the buyer gets an email with a private link to the download. Their name and email show up on your Orders page, so a good client can turn into a paid shoot.

What it costs
You set the price per pack, not per download. A tight themed set for one kind of buyer holds its price far better than a folder of everything you shot that year.
The free plan has no monthly bill and holds 3 products. Every order is sold by AOVANCY SRL: we take the payment, deliver the file and handle refunds, then pay you 92.5% of the price.* We keep 7.5%, and card processing comes out of the sale first.
*Before card processing.

The product page
Buyers of stock want to know one thing before paying: can I use this for my business? Say it on the page and again in a PDF in the zip.
Licence line
Use these photos on your website, social posts, ads and printed menus. No reselling the files, no attribution needed.
FAQ
Stock sites bring a lot of buyers and pay you a royalty for each download. Selling direct brings the buyers you find yourself, but you set the price and the licence, and the relationship stays yours. Plenty of photographers do both.
Write it in the product description and put the same text in a licence PDF inside the zip: what's allowed (web, social, ads, print), what isn't (reselling the files), and whether you want credit. AOVANCY delivers the files; the licence is yours to set.
Yes, zipped. Each product takes one file up to 50 MB, which suits JPG packs. RAW and TIFF files have to go in a ZIP, and full-size ones add up fast, so sell them in small sets or one image per product.
Single images often sell for €5 to €15 and themed packs of 10 to 30 for €29 to €79. Packs for a specific trade (wedding vendors, restaurants) hold a higher price than general ones.
No. AOVANCY is your storefront, checkout and delivery; the buyers come from your portfolio and your Instagram. Your store has its own address (yourname.aovancy.com), so it's one link to share.
