Great site!
March 26, 2022

Better than social media. Don't waste your time anyplace else. Clickasnap is legit and I've enjoyed uploading photos, earning for views, and checking out other users' photos as well. Great staff, really nice members too. I love it there.
Highly-recommend:)

I'm a studio owner, I've choose to subscribe with the pro seller monthly account, paid 6 euros and uploaded 20 pictures of best what I took in the past 3 years, when you upload the pictures you see many views and likes, then it stopped after that, I got less than 50 total views and it was increasing 1 or 2 each couple of days, so what I've got after week is 12 cent, yay, so after a month I may reach 48 cents... the site is spam and not worth to try, you'll burn money and time in useless site

Hi Allan,
As with any website, activity directly corresponds to your contribution to it, regardless of wether it is your personal website (google rankings require fresh content weekly for example) facebook (pages require fresh content daily) or a photo sharing website like ours. As you stated, upon uploading your photos you had lots of attention but as thousands, if not tens of thousands of photos are uploaded after yours then the attention decreases as the photos fall further down the category pages. To maintain this interest and increase your earnings all you had to do was upload a couple of photos per week. This keeps your profile in constant view and ensures interaction with your photos is maintained. None of this is the fault of the platform but is a factor of how you have used it i am afraid.
Furthermore, with the Pro account you are paying for access to a huge amount of features that would, in aggregate, cost you hundreds of euros a year to access across existing sites. Our site is not just a pay per view site, this is a bonus on top of all the other features we offer that you would have to pay far more to access elsewhere

ClickAsnap is a scammer platform that takes your money on subscription and cheating not pay your earn.
Do waste your time on this platform. They will let you subscribe to be a member and collect your money monthly on a fee charge. When you have earned money on your photos per view at over minimum withdrawal. They will reject your withdrawal request for the stupid reason on your photos that not your own photos and/or stolen photos to declined. You can see this in my attached email. I am a fool to let them collected my subscription money for long time and indeed is earn per view is not earn much in your imagination. Do not let them cheat on you.

Hi Chuanchai,

ClickaSnap accounts are solely for the purpose of sharing images which are created by and owned by you. We do not support Creative Commons licences, or accounts whose intentions are to profit off of someone else’s work. This is outlined in our terms of service, our Paid Per View policy and there is even a highlighted warning message at the point of uploading a photo which reminds you that uploading stolen content is not permitted.

Under no circumstances will be our Paid Per View benefit be applied to an account which has stolen content on it, and we stand by this term as reasonable and fair.

Kind regards,

Clickasnap is a scam
January 31, 2024

I paid for an account on the promise of earning money for views. I calculated how many views I would need to break even. I was so wrong! In the small print, they add that only other paid accounts views count and that a view has to be for a certain length of time. That was well hidden.
So at the end of the year I decided to cut my losses and downgrade to a free account. Well I could not figure out how to do this. I could easily find the buttons to upgrade my account earlier but not to downgrade. I ended up leaving it until later that day. I had completely forgotten that the company is in the UK a different time zone so before I knew it, they charged me for the total of the following year. Within half an hour, I had messaged them to cancel my account and then managed to eventually find out how to do this online. They would not refund my money even though I had not had any use of 'this' years account. Now they will not even respond to my emails.
So I guess I have an account for another year where the only photos I will be uploading are ones that let everyone know what a scammer company Clickasnap really are. Feel free to follow me on Clickasnap SBay

Even we paid the highest rate of subscription (Seller Pro), unfortunately it doesn't mean we can get paid easier. At least it can't get paid in short period. We have to keep to have paid for profile promoting to get more followers.
On the other hand, really have no clue for the front page photos. I can see much photos which are so funny, check with its website and you can understand what I mean.

In conclusion, think very carefully before you pay the subscription and what you really want to archive by this site.

Not worth your Time.
February 25, 2021

I tested this site on the aspect of making money with professional photography, but it's not worth your time. First of all, you have to subscribe to get paid, which is a bummer, and also not what I expected, so if you're looking for a free and easy way to make some extra bucks, this is not worth it. And also in my opinion, this website is badly designed, a bit barebones to be exact. It feels cheap.
And also, once you've created your account, you HAVE to subscribe to at least 6 Channels, which is stupid? And also the way the make you do it, is just hilarious, as they give you just 6 random small, probably fresh accounts with no pics, so even if you want to subscribe to profiles with beatiful pictures, you can't, because you have absolutely no options.
Dont waste your time.
But the biggest killer for professional photography is the picture quality, it's absolutely horrendous. The compression is awful, and kills every bit of detail you might wish to keep.

Hi Schmidt,
Firstly, thankyou for your constructive review. Our response as follows:
First of all, looking at Clickasnap as purely a way to make money off of views means you're probably not our target audience for the platform. Clickasnap is a holistic platform that encompasses a wide range of existing platforms into one place, and at a far lower cost. I am sure as photographer you use a platform like Flickr, petapixel or 500px the cost of these ranging from £60 to £350+ per annum. For example, the ability to share photos to an onsite audience, the ability to sell images across the planet, image protection systems, automated syndication systems and of course, potentially unlimited earnings from the pay per view aspect. Our platform offers far more, for far less cost than any other platform available today for image sharing. We have never portrayed ourselves as a 'free and easy way to make quick bucks' in fact, just Like Youtube or Spotify, the greater the more time, preparation and work that goes into your imagery the more views you will get and therefore the more sales and paid views you earn. (As an example, we have quite a few users with only a few uploads who start withdrawing within a few days of joining)
As for the site design, you are completely correct. But Clickasnap is constantly evolving. What it looks like today is a far cry from what it was last year and in 1 years time will be completely updated again. These things take time, and as a company with a relatively small team we do what we can in the time we have.
Yes, the sign up process makes you follow 6 people, but given you can easily unfollow these 6 people we do not really see this as a big issue. Plus, for many of our new users it starts to give them an understanding as to how the platform works.
Image Quality; out of 44 million annual users you're the first person to complain about this. However. Yes we do compress images for the following reasons:
1) Many images on the site are for sale. Given watermarks are useless, all showing a high resolution photo to the viewer does is give them the opportunity to take it for free
2) Most viewers really don't care that much if an image is compressed. They will never see the original RAW image, won't have calibrated monitors and are just there to consume and admire good photography
3) 75% of our audience is on mobile, and we are used in every country in the world. So out of every 10 images viewed, almost 8 of them will be on a screen the size of your palm and the last thing the viewer wants is a 10 megabyte image being downloaded onto their phone
I hope this helps

Guys, it's a fraud. They play with your mind, saying you can make 0.90 cents. It's less then one cent. Most ppl (99.*******%) think it's almost one dollar, but it's not even one cent!

Everyone gets a bad review from time to time. Chances are, one bad review will not hurt your business, as your happy customers or users will soon write good reviews. We often find businesses that have one or two bad reviews to go along with their good ones often will get more traffic and customers. If you are affiliated with a business and would like to respond to a review, please email

I purchased a one year subscription. I only used it the first 2 mths., I had lost track of it. When it came time for auto renewal, I tried to cancel. Clickasnap will not send you a courtesy reminder of upcoming payment withdraw due. But they will send you a notice of payment taken from you. On a refund request, Clickasnap refund policy says, "they must contact customer support WITHIN THIRTY DAYS of their purchase detailing the reasons for their concerns and providing proof to support their concerns". An auto renewal starts a new purchase with a THIRTY DAY TIME PERIOD. I tried to cancel on the second day of those thirty days. They would not honor their word. Clickasnap said to me in an email, "you are authorizing the auto billing of your subscription payments UNTIL YOU DECIDE TO CANCEL." and "Remember, you're in control of your payments and can cancel or downgrade ANYTIME." I find this refund policy a failure, swindling.

I don't recommend giving this site any of your info. I signed up for a $2 per month subscription and they charged my PayPal almost $90! I got robbed and when I contacted the customer service they very rudely told me that they wouldn't give me any of my money back. I currently have a claim open with Paypal so hopefully, I can recover at least some of my money. Please be careful with scam sites like this!

Hi Shannon,
Clearly you did not sign up for our £2 per month option or you would not have been charged for the Annual Pro option at £57.60 per year (converted into dollars is roughly $90 at todays exchange rates). This does not make our website a scam, you were charged correctly, for the tier that you chose.

Misleading
March 4, 2022

Hi, I have only been a member of clickasnap for a few days and where it does sound like a good idea the site is very misleading. It says on the FAQ, youtube videos they have posted and customer service contacted that they pay 7 cents per view. This isn't true. They only pay you 1 cent per view that is considered eligible for payment which is shown to you on the upload page if you look at the pictures you posted. I contacted customer support about this and they literally didn't even read my question. I was just sent a copy and paste of the FAQ saying that I was suppose to be getting 7 cents and not even mentioning why I am only get 1 cent. Misleading and poor customer support. Willing to change my review when they fix these glaring issues.

Hi Caitlin,

Our FAQ's, YouTube videos and customer support all advise you 0.7¢ per view, no where do we advise 7¢ per view.

Let me preface my comments by saying what Tom has initiated with CAS is
Nothing short of genius and I wish him all the best for this endeavour. Sadly, as my work seems to elicit few views and no real returns, after 2 years, I believe that I will likely cease my Pro account, that $7.00 a month while certainly not a large sum by any account, could be better used elsewhere. This not the fault of Tom or CAS in general, rather it is with me. I am not a "social media" fan, I loathe FB, do not Tweet and tend to shy away from most large SM sites and that is where CAS gets noticed for the most part. So at this point, I feel that I am simply spinning my wheels with regards to the Pro account. Also, the subject matter of my work likely does not seem to fit in here in general. It might the quality or as mentioned above, the subject matter. For most shooters who are active on SM, the CAS is THE site to submit too, bar none.

Thanks Tom,

It's been fun... all the best.

Look at the reviews
January 13, 2022

You cant dispute the facts. As of this writing there were 54 reviews... 24 one star and 20 two stars and above. The site owners can argue with every review if they like... but you wont get over 50% 1 star reviews if youre site was worth anyones time.
The pay scale is trash, takes hours of uploading, sorting, labelling and tagging... then to spend several hundred more hours self promoting... to earn $12... that you cant even touch... cause you didnt make enough... absolute total garbage site.

Beware from Auto Renewal
February 7, 2022

Beware of Auto-Renewal. Clickasnap policy is no refund even if you ask them to cancel few hours after they charged you for the second year.
I stopped using the service 3 months after enrollment as a Professional Photographer. I did not realize I am signed for Auto-renewal when the year end. Few hours after they charge the second year I realized my PayPal was charged, I email request to stop the service for the coming year (that had just started few hours earlier) Click A Snap reply was they had strict no refund policy.
I canceled my subscription the next day.
It is a shame that PayPal gives service to such a vendor.

They declined my withdrawal request because according to them my photos aren't mine. Well guess what I'm a published photographer and I can prove my ownership of every uploaded photo with raw files, they are just a bunch of scammers! This platform is an absolute scam, don't waste your time. And it's full of selfies and low quality photos, it's not a place for a decent photographer.
