Turn free downloads on

Open the gallery, then Settings, then Selling & downloads. Choose Free downloads (photos are free) or Hybrid (free downloads and paid products together), and choose Save.

Free download options

The size of a free download:

  • Web (1080px): for sharing on social media.
  • Standard (2048px): good for screens and small prints.
  • High (4096px): for printing.

Sizes are the longest edge.

On the Downloads & subscribers tab:

  • Resolution adjective: the word visitors see for the download, such as "High resolution" or "Social media".
  • Watermark free downloads: puts your branding watermarks on the free files, for example a sponsor's frame.
  • Upsell paid products on free downloads: shows paid products, such as prints or a higher-resolution file, when someone picks their free photos.

Choose Save settings when you're done.
