Apart from being the most affordable digital management solution on the market, Pics.io offers a very simple and transparent billing system. Unlike many other services, you don’t have to sign up, give out your personal details, or contact the sales team to find out the pricing. All the information is readily available on our website.
Once you register at the Pics.io platform, you are given a 7-day free trial period, during which you can explore all the features Pics.io has to offer: organization and searching your digital assets, inviting your teammates for collaboration, and showcasing the results of your work to your customers with the help of websites. After the trial period is over, you can continue using the Pics.io service by entering your credit card details and choosing one of our billing plans.
Pics.io has 3 billing plans: Solo, Micro and Small.
For large companies, we offer a customized Enterprise package with unlimited functionalities.
Check out more details about the peculiarities of each plan below.
Solo – $100/mo
If you are an individual or a team with very few members, the Solo subscription plan should be the perfect option for you. You are given access to the basic core DAM features, such as search and uploading/downloading with the free Pics.io storage space and a high level of security with 2FA. Also, you can use external storage vendors to use with Pics.io. The Solo plan implies creating a custom plan based on your needs:
If you need to collaborate with your colleagues, you can invite your colleagues, vendors, suppliers to the team and work on the same project together and pay for teammates only (each teammate comes at $25/month).
In case there is a necessity of sharing your assets with clients or partners, you can do so using public websites and pay for websites only ($12/month for each website). Besides, you may take advantage of single asset sharing, if you don’t need to share multiple files at once. Solo plan includes 10 free single shared assets.
The third option allows you to mix the features and invite teammates along with sharing your assets in a form of Pics.io websites.
A clear and easy-to-use billing constructor will help you estimate the amount you will be charged per month for the features you choose to add to your plan. You are only charged for the features you have purchased, which is yet another great advantage of Pics.io.

Fair Use Policy in Pics.io
Pics.io offers certain features with no set limits, however, fair use applies to all unlimited features, ensuring they are used as intended. For instance, sharing a single account among multiple users by logging in under the same credentials violates fair use.
NB! If we detect any misuse or excessive activity that goes beyond reasonable usage, we reserve the right to impose limits on the affected feature to maintain platform integrity.
Proposal for HEIs and Non-Profits
Finally, Pics.io has some news for non-profit organizations and higher educational institutions. We want to support you in your cause, so we offer special conditions to non-profit organizations and the educational sector on Small, Medium, and Enterprise plans. Feel free to contact us at sales@pics.io to learn more.

Pics.io tries to be as flexible and user-friendly as possible. We understand that you might want to scale your team or create more public websites than your current billing plan allows. You don’t need to worry about that. You can change the plan anytime you want, and the new pricing will be adjusted automatically. We make a point of keeping the whole process clear and transparent, so all the invoices are safely stored in your account.
Pics.io wishes you enjoyable and seamless work with your digital assets.
How Billing and Invoice Adjusts When You Add Add-ons to Your Plan
We want to make sure you only pay for what you actually use. That’s why sometimes your invoice might include different types of charges.
When you add or remove an add-on in the middle of a billing cycle, we adjust your charges based on the time left in that cycle. This is called proration. It means we calculate how many days are left in the current billing period and charge you just for that time.
For example, if you add an add-on on November 10 and your billing cycle starts on November 20, your invoice will show:
A charge for the days between November 10 and November 20: This is the time you used the add-on before your next billing cycle begins.
A charge for the full next billing period, from November 20 to December 20: This is the charge for the full month ahead.
We calculate these charges based on the daily price of your plan. For example, if an add-on costs $100 per month, the daily rate is calculated as $100 divided by 30 days, which equals $3.33 per day. If you use the service for 10 days, the charge will be $3.33 × 10, which equals $33.30.
This is why your invoice might include both a charge for “remaining time” and a charge for the “next month.” It’s just our way of making sure you’re billed fairly and accurately.
If you still have any questions regarding your invoice, feel free to reach out to us in the chat or at support@pics.io. We’re always happy to help!
