How to order

There is no password. Enter your email at sign in and we send a link that works for 20 minutes and keeps you signed in on that browser for 30 days. An account keeps your orders, invoices and downloads together and lets an approved business pay on account.

You never need one. Guest checkout works the same, and your receipt arrives by email either way.

Search by subject, name, place or event, then narrow by keyword, shape or date. The search tips explain how the search reads your words.

Can’t find it? Ask us for a free search at support@snvrkotics.com. Tell us the use, the dates and what has to be in the frame.

Some uses need approval before they are sold: advertising, perpetual or exclusive uses of a represented photographer’s work, and any exclusive use of ours. The calculator turns those into a request, and we email you a link to pay once it is cleared. Need a mockup first? Use “Download comp for layout” for the watermarked preview.

For a photograph priced with the calculator, “Add to cart” keeps the photograph with its own terms. In your cart you can change any item’s terms until you check out, remove it, or keep it for later. Prices are checked again at checkout; if one has moved, the cart tells you which.

Pay by card or with the wallets Stripe offers in your country. The whole cart is one payment, in US dollars, and Stripe sends the receipt.

Businesses that buy often can apply to pay on terms. Once a person approves the account, “Bill my account” appears at checkout: the licenses are issued at once and the invoice is due on the terms your account was approved for.

At checkout, name who the licenses are for and add a note if you need one, such as a purchase order number. When the payment clears, every license is issued, each with its own number and PDF, and one email lists them all with the download links.

Your account lists every order with its status, the invoice PDF for the whole order, and the licenses in it with their download links. Add a note to any order there. Orders placed as a guest appear once you sign in with the same email.

Every license is issued under the license agreement. Its rights-managed terms bind the territory, duration, exclusivity, circulation, image size, placement and editions you chose. A larger use needs a further license. Comps are for layout only.

Open the license from the email or your account and choose Download again. Each time you do, a new download link is made, and it works for 10 minutes, so an old link that stopped working is expected. If a fresh one still fails, write to support@snvrkotics.com with the license number and we will send the file another way.
