Who Pixpa is for
Travel photographers, guides, and artisans or craft cooperatives who want one simple site to show their work and sell it, so more of each sale stays with the people who made it.
Who should skip it
Skip it if you mainly run an online shop with many products. A dedicated ecommerce platform fits better.
How to get started
Start the free trial, upload your strongest work with clear captions on where it was made and by whom, then add the store when you are ready to sell.
